    Bivol and Mayweather beat him more convincingly but Canelo was at least trying to win. To me it looked like he checked out against Crawford.

    Wrong, he tried to win against Crawford and got outclassed at all ranges. He got schooled because Crawford is that good, so good that you think Canelo wasn't trying lol

    This is such a terrible excuse. How your buddies eat it up is beyond me

    Because they're judging the fight how it actually happened, not the imaginary fight you've concocted in your mind.

    What actually happened is Crawfords footwork and iq were far beyond Canelos. Some breakdowns on the fight can help you learn. Crawford beats any version of Canelo, that's the reality.

    The reality is, he beat the worst version of Canelo we've ever seen by a ****ing round. You're a clown who knows **** all. That's why you watch dickriding propaganda videos, wanting someone to teach you something. I have eyes and a functioning brain, that's all I need. I certainly don't go looking to others for positive affirmations and reinforcements of my delusions.

    You are way off lad. I have seen masterclasses before and this was not one. The reality is it was not a good fight at all. It was a good fighter beating a once good fighter who doesn't have it anymore. Canelo even said himself his body couldn't do what he wanted it to do.

    Jesus Usyk fans gotta go extinct.

    Madrimov vs Crawford wasn’t actually that close, it just wasn’t as easy of a win for Crawford as people predicted.

    He also said Crawford is better than Mayweather.

    https://ringmagazine.com/en/news/canelo-says-body-let-him-down-terence-crawford

    “Everything [gave me trouble]. He has everything,” Alvarez said during his post-fight press conference. “We knew Crawford is a great fighter. I did what I was supposed to do, right? I tried for every way. I trained very hard. He deserves all the credit. I tried my best. I couldn't figure out the style.”

    From Canelos own mouth. You said he didn't try, but in reality he tried his best and couldn't figure Crawford out. He was past his prime but still the #1 SMW before the fight

    I just rewatched this fight, I scored it a draw when I watched it live. Today I scored it Madrimov.

    Round 1 Crawford
    Round 2 Madrimov
    Round 3 Crawford
    Round 4 Madrimov
    Round 5 Madrimov
    Round 6 Crawford
    Round 7 Madrimov
    Round 8 Madrimov
    Round 9 Madrimov
    Round 10 Madrimov
    Round 11 Crawford
    Round 12 Crawford

    115-113 Madrimov


    NO way did Crawford take it off the champ conclusively.. Corrupt Judging especially the 116-112 one. Israil deserved at the very least an immediate rematch
