I of course think Linares will win again but certainly not writing off Crolla. Nonetheless am excited for the fight.
Eddie's planning a robbery, he more or less declared that when he started moaning about the one honest judges card in the first match.
People are very hard on crolla. Far too fast to write him off. I am a big fan of ant crolla and as such I feel he might have a chance against linares IF he can make big changes to his style. His case is not completely hopeless. Linares wasn't all THaT. Dominant first fight IMO. But of course crolla probably would be better off following an easier path than .linares.
He'd be in a good fight against Flanagan. It's a real shame politics will see that that fight never happens. Annoyingly Turbo will end up getting iced by someone else for crap money.
Agreed crolla v Flanagan would be a great domestic scrap. Turbo strikes me as being a VERY tough guy physically. A hard nut ...durable...hard to see anyone 'icing' him ..not literally in the sense of a clean ko anyway...
We've never seen him take repeated blows off a genuinely world class opponent so it's difficult to gauge how tough he is. I wouldn't be surprised if he got destroyed by a Garcia or even a Dejan level of opponent. There's still a question mark at him against that level of fighter IMO.
