Fight Canelo Fight: Lean is key

Terens Crawford would be better not to accumulate for his challenge for the champion title of three appearance 168-Fung champion Canelo Alvarez on September 13 in Las Vegas. If Crawford (41-0, 31 CO) has a shot at the victory, he must bow to the battle and not add the extra weight that will slow him down.

In Crawford's last match, he showed no power in his 154 debut against WBA Jr. Israil Madimov champion. Although it looked bigger than it was a year earlier at 147 against Erol Spence, its power had not increased. He was more heavy and more slow.

Crawford's best chance

If Crawford escapes, hoping to find more power to match the naturally stronger and larger cinnamon (62-2-2, 39 CO), he will make a mistake that can lead to a knockout loss. It is doubtful that the terrain will be long enough for Kanelo to hurt him, but he will not win if he fights in defense all night. Jermel Charlo and Erislandski Lara tried this approach, and the Nevad judges appreciate this style.

It would be better if Crawford was ready to move to 168 to get several matches in the division to prepare him for the battle in Kanelo. He would not do it because the big reason for which Terens accepts this match is for the money, not the one who is trying to prove that he is a top dog at 168.

Crawford's last 154 match showed that it was not designed to cross this division. Even in this weight class, he will have to be strategic to avoid losses if he wanted to remain unbeaten. He is not big, strong or young enough to beat the killers of 154 and certainly not 168.

“Crawford climbs 14 pounds. Canelo is not 168 person when you see it. He is healthy and now fits into this division. When he looks at his frame, he has to fight at 160, “Ade Oladipo said on his YouTube The Teres Crawford channel does not give up so many sizes of Canelo Alvarez.

“If I were Crawford I would have entered 160. I didn't have to be 168. I would just get into the burden I felt perfect if it was a movement. He won't overtake canelo. I know Crawford likes to fight And he is strong.

Ade is right. Crawford should not come to a more severe than he fights for Erol Spence in 2023, because it was his best weight. His shots will not enchant cinnamon of any weight. Ferres wins only if he overtakes cinnamon in a boring battle.

“What he can do is to be more skillful in the fleet and to be better in the movement,” Ae said. “You can land your blows and get in and get out of your pocket. I think Crawford at 160 makes this better than Crawford, who is trying to get into the ring close enough at 180. You carry a weight you are not used to wearing.

“This Crawford jump is a quick and big jump. It's not like you had four matches at 154 and get used to carrying the extra weight. You immediately went from 147 to 154 to 168. I say, come to 160 or 161 and say, “Let it have it.” Usik always enters his heavyweight battles in 222. He tries to judge what is the best weight for him and I think Crawford should look at it. “

Kanello's weakness

This is a big jump for Crawford, but he relies on Canello to explode early, as he in his last two matches against Edgar Berlanga and Jaime Mungia. The Mexican star had nothing left in the gas tank after four rounds and managed to fight only in short obstacles for the rest of the race.

“The gabs what is the best weight for you and you don't have to hit 168. To be a super average weight, all you have to do is weigh over 160. Enter 161,” Ade said what you need to Make Crawford.
