Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán vs. Terence Allan Crawford, Jr.

You're not wrong, but he looks pretty good at the weight. Not sure he's gonna be that much weaker than Canelo in there like in the clinches etc. Maybe he gets manhandled but I'm not too sure about that. High school wrestlers, ya know?

 

The weight is the main question here. Crawford is very obviously the better fighter p4p. It's just a matter of size mostly. Also, since both are past their prime, who has is more preserved too.

 

yeah, canelo is not going to outgrapple him. but the difference will show itself in bone to bone collisions.

 

It is hard to say no to a truckload full of money but Crawford should have stayed at 154. This fight is a testament to all wrongs that plague boxing as a sport.

 

might very well happen, but Oscar/Pac, Usyk/Big Dosser...surr I'm missing a bunch of historic fights. We'll see pretty soon. Woot!

 

i agree, but oscar was far from the p4p list, as well as fury, realistically speaking. i think canelo is pretty close to complete still, just fighting bigger guys lately. hes not fighting a bigger guy today, not a naturally bigger one.
pac/cotto or duran/barkley would be a better comparison of the significance. it would really be something if bud really was on that level of achievements. we shall see tonight if he really is on that level.

 

Canelo-Crawford will definitely not be rigged or staged

 

Here's where we part ways. Canelo has had a **** ton of close ones go his way. I think Oscar was far more worthy than Canelo. Would have ****ed him up at 154.

 

Big difference between Bud and Brook.

 

We shall find out in a few hours who is correct.

 

I was so completely wrong about this fight. I enjoyed watching it but it was total domination by Crawford. 3, maybe 4 rounds for Alvarez. Much respect to Crawford what a great performance.
