Anyone starting to give Crawford a decent chance at Canelo?

[elfag]

A few years ago the idea of the fight seemed absurd.

Now its happening. We know crawford wont LOOK small next to canelo, heck hes taller and hes 180s out of camp.

But Charlo looked the same size or larger and he fought SCARED once he felt canelo's power.


Crawford nearly lost to Madrimov but Madrimov's style is nothing like Canelos, hes very mobile very fast feet.


Canelo has lead feet, he hasnt stopped anyone in his last 7 fights. Hes really slowing down, these are all guys he would have stopped a few years ago.

It's hard to say the type of Crawford that shows up. Does he still have the desire to show greatness? Perhaps against Madrimov he wasn't as motivated and it showed. There should be no bigger motivation than to beat Canelo. Canelo that showed up Saturday looked very beatable, but it also could of been that he was just there for the paycheck and didn't care to put on a mediocre performance since Scull didn't excite him or do anything to make it a fight.

I'll expect Canelo to be at the best he can be at this point in his career against Crawford and same for Crawford. If the size or power of Canelo doesn't bother Crawford, he can be in for a good night. He has gone on record that he spars only bigger guys for the most part, so he's used to larger opponents and the power they bring. Though headgear and not having headgear are obviously two different things.

i can see TC being more competitive than canelo's last opponent... but to come to 168 and beat canelo... i dont know... i said it was a 50/50 fight before... but after seeing TC at 154 and he wasnt really able to do much to a guy levels below canelo... so at 168, it will be very hard for TC... yall giving canelo too much hate for his performance last weekend but scull didnt wanna fight so it's hard to look good. if TC comes to fight and exchange with canelo, i see canelo getting the better of these exchanges.

I just think Canelo is too shopworn to put it in 5th gear

i feel like canelo still have the faster hands and his counter is better than TC.. but we will see come sept.. i cannot see TC outboxing canelo to a decision. i think one guy is going down whether that's canelo or TC.. but i cant see TC outboxing canelo.. TC is not really fast on his feet and he's not a runner so outboxing canelo will be hard.

Thanks to Scull TBud-Alvarez is now intriguing

Saul won’t become great at containing movement in only 4 months

Saul-TBud will be a highly competitive TBud-Errol!

[JakeTheBoxer]

Nope I give him no chance. He is coming for his huge retirement money. That is what is this about.

but TC doesnt really fight like that tho.. TC is not a runner like scull and is not light on his feet like bivol. TC fights flat footed just like canelo. he's not bouncing on his feet and at 168, he will be even more slower.

[Smash]

i give him a shot at it, canelo doesnt take hard fights now for a reason, i expect canelo to win a competitive fight but wouldnt be shocked if bud pulled it off, someone is going to beat canelo and maybe badly soon, can bud be that person, we shall see
