Don't compare Canelo to Madrimov

Style wise Crawford would do very well against the flat footed Canelo but he would have to introduce more power punches into his offensive

Madrimov would also be tough for Canelo too

 

Lol, fans have more confidence than Crawford. He sure as hell didnt sound like he wanted any part of Canelo in the interview last night.

 

154 is Crawford’s ceiling

 

Madrimov is probably very happy to lose to Crawford. He will never get such a big paycheck again in his career. He will fade from now on, like the journeyman he is.

 

People don't seem to realize, that Madrimov had great footwork, stamina, movements and power.

Canelo don't have even half of the skills that Madrimov has.

I would bet that BUD will beat Canelo more widely, than Madrimov.

 

If you think that Khan got caught, you are an idiot and need to reexamine the fight.

 

You cant be serious

 

Broadly I just think Canelo's too big, too durable and hits too hard - I'd expect Bud to have some success, but he'd also get hit hard.

More than anything else here, though, I disagree that Canelo would automatically get the A-side privilege...
A few years back, definitely. But Canelo's not quite the poster boy for the sport that he was for a while, he's still clearly an excellent fighter but he's gone beyond the point where he looks scarily dominant and that's affected his casual fanboi appeal.


Let's be honest though, it's not happening... Crawford would want a catchweight given how he looks like he's already at his ceiling and Canelo knows all too well how those work and won't want it.

 

'Nice' to see you attacking someone's thoughts while ignoring the largest part of the post which is very relevant actually. Canelo and Madrimov have completely different styles

 

Yeah, well, you said it. And it was dumb.

 

He just went toe to toe with the best p4p fighter on the planet and all of a sudden he is a journeyman?

 

154 isn't Bud's weight class, and yet he still dethroned the champion. Had Madrimov been really that good, he would do what Bivol did to Canelo, tell him to stay in his own weight.

 

Canelo has an iron chin and is MUCH bigger than Crawford who is arguably not even a real junior middleweight. Yes Bud would be able to land fairly easily on Canelo but I think Canelo will at some point really hurt Bud bad. I still give Crawford a chance but it seems to me that something bad would eventually happen.
