Who won: Terence Crawford or Israil Madrimov

Crawford, just because Israil did really well doesnt mean he won.

 

I tried to watch the fight. It was so boring I turned off the video in the third round.

 

Yes, he’s very good. Calls it down the line. Even when it involves his favorites.

 

I rewatched Madrimov vs Crawford. Had it again for Madrimov in a close fight. It was a draw at least

Crawford was the challenger you can't fight like that and take the title off the champion.

2 American judges, one Canadian, smh. It's about time there was neutral judges in title fights in the USA.

The fight showed that Crawford has no chance against Canelo, it's a money grab. He's not even big enough for Light Middle and that was against a small Light Middle in Madrimov. Look how much better Ortiz was against Madrimov than Crawford.

 

I had Crawford 116-112, but as a few people have already pointed out, it shows how much of a mismatch the Canelo fight will be. He couldn't put any dent in Madrimov, Canelo didn't get hurt by Golovkin or Kovalev, he's going to walk through Crawford.

 

The thing is, Madrimov is light on his feet and throws sneakier and more punches. Canelo while bigger has slow feet and is really just loading up nowadays. The Canelo who fought Saunders or Smith or Plant would murder Crawford, but I wouldn’t be shocked if Crawford pulled this off.

 

Israil Madrimov

 

Bud 116-112 or maybe draw at worst.

 

Really? I'd be shocked if it goes the distance. Canelo has slowed down, but Crawford will be two weeks away from his 38th birthday when they fight and is dreadfully inactive; he's nowhere near a 168, and he's going up to fight the best of the best. Not only do I think it'll be a massacre, but it'll be a fight where the ending is that brutal, and people ask how the boxing community thought it was a good idea. I hope I am wrong, but I think it has the potential to play out like Joshua-Ngannou because of the sheer weight difference.

 

Close fight, Bud won.
