Canelo vs Crawford - Post Fight Review (Video)

It has nothing to do with race, it has do to with nationality.

I’ve seen many black boxers from other countries robbed in the US. Good example: Lewis- Holyfield I.

Christian Mbilli (who is a REAL fighter not a cowardly runner like Crawford) better be careful and never agree to fight an American in Las Vegas, he'll get cheated. I enjoyed that Mbilli-Martinez fight - both real warriors!

Las Vegas is worse that Germany and the UK for favoring the home country boxer. Sure, the UK has it's dodgy referees and a couple of bad judges, but overall the corrupt officials are worse in Las Vegas. Both Bayless brothers (judge and referee), Jack Reiss, Harvey Dock and others always favor the American boxer.

 

Even Canelo knows he lost. I think he had a better perspective of the fight than you did. Jeez, all one needs to do is look at there faces after the fight.

 

That tainted beef cooks up right.

 

Canelo lost the last two rounds, that’s why he looked like that. But he won most of the early and middle rounds before he became frustrated and tired.

 

The crowd ****ing BOO'D Crawford when he was announced, and went wild for Canelo. Canelo transcends nationality apparently.

 

I was surprised by Canelo's corner staying calm. By round 8, they needed to be warning him he was behind and really needed to pick it up. By round 10, they needed to be telling him that he likely loses without a KO. By round 11, the plan should have become go for broke, balls out, do everything to try to get a KO.

 

If Canelo won most of the early rounds and middle rounds, why would he be frustrated? Crawford started landing hard or at least solid shots in the 4th. So the facial deformation started long before the 11th.

 

You would think right? But it's not what he does. Plus, the few times they did exchang in close quarters, Crawford was still getting the best of him. He jumped on Canelo to close out the 12th. It's not out of the realm of possibility he would have gotten stopped had he went all out.

 

He was frustrated because of Crawford's running. Canelo is getting older and he's slower on his feet now.

 

He's a pos poster one of the worst here and doesn't even know boxing.

 

Great video as usual!

 

What surprised me the most about canelo's corner and canelo himself is that they didnt react. They just didnt have a plan B. They tried the same flawed strategy from round 1 to 12. The lack of ideas in canelo's side was concerning, and at the end of the day it is a problem in canelo's mind rather than in his corner. He never was the most imaginative guy in the world, but he always had very decent ideas, last saturday it was not the case.

 

He was bringing nationalism into this, not race.

 

I think he was frustrated because he was getting hit coming in and going out, couldn't pin Crawford(AKA Canelo's new daddy) on the ropes, was terrible at cutting off the ring. So, was Crawford running when he smacked Canelo on the lips causing Canelo to almost turn his back out of frustration? What turned Canelo's face all red? It sure wasn't Ctawford's feet.

 

But sadly, none of the judges - Steve Weisfeld, Max DeLuca, Tim Cheatham - were either Mexican nor Mexican-American.

Again, it was a close fight, and a gift decision, not a robbery. I haven't watched it a second time, I will sometime this week (with Kellerman's and Ward's biased commentary turned off).
