Paulie Malignaggi believes that Terenka Crawford has a good chance of defeating the united champion Super Middle Wweight Canelo Alvarez in September. He says that he initially did not think that Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) can win because he is “too compact”, but he feels that Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) is no longer in his leader.
Malignaggi states that Crawford has a fighting style similar to Floyd Mayweather Jr, and he feels that Canelo surrendered when he lost to him in the fight in 2013. The Mexican star is much stronger than then, and it will not be weakened at all.
Crawford’s hunger
Paulie says Crawford is hungry, which gives him a good chance to beat Canelo. Of course, he can’t be so hungry to sit inactive for a solid year from the last fight. Crawford could be afraid of fighting for losing to one of the younger medium scales, and then his great payment day against Canelo disappearing. Terenka did not want to test in 168, which is understandable if he was worried about defeating.
“At first I thought Crawford was too compact. I think Crawford was a much more complete warrior than Canelo. This is not excluded [that Terence wins]- said Paulie Malignaggi WarriorDiscussing Canelo Alvarez vs. Terenka Crawford, which is to take place in September.
Crawford may be too compact to stay in your pocket and fight Canelo as he will have to have a chance to win. He looked faint in his debut in 154 against Israil Madrimov and was consistently overtaken by a much stronger WBA master. Moving up two divisions to face even stronger Canelo, it doesn’t look good for Crawford.
Canelo
“This Canelo is not the main Canelo. This Canelo is trying to steal bags, while half-****-said Malignaggi. “When Canelo was in challenging situations in which he had to dig, what did he do? He did not really dug and went to break the fights in which he lost. “
“He just accepted the loss. We saw it against Floyd [Mayweather Jr.] too [as well as against Dmitry Bivol]. He never really risked Floyd when he was outclassed. He just accepted it. Since then [the Bivol fight]He treated the level of his opposition enormously – said Paulie about Canelo.
You can pass Canelo for his losses Mayweather and Bivol because he was in a challenging position. When he fought the stationary version of Mayweather in 2013, he was only 22 years aged. He deteriorated, agreeing to 152 pounds. During weighing, Canelo looked exhausted and had to sit down to gather. He didn’t look good.
“He [Crawford] He is a guy who reminds me of Floyd and is hungry, motivated and wants to be the best, “said Malinggi. “He has this mean series in the ring. Crawford wants to go to this Gusto. This does not mean that Crawford wins because it is compact. I believe more that Crawford can win than when it was first said. “
It cannot be said that Crawford wants to fight best, because since his fight with Madrimov has not turned out to be interest in fighting another guy at the age of 154. So you can’t say that he always wants to reach for “Gusto” because his CV is too faint to prove it. Crawford only won with Errola Spence and Madrimov to prove that he was fighting the best.
He didn’t want to move to 168 to test. If Terenka really believed in himself, he would do it. Crawford knows his boundaries and just wants to pay against Canelo, not test.
“I would like to see how Crawford wins, because if Canelo gets this payment day, which will be a great payment,” said Malignaggi. “If he also won from this, this is too much reward for repealing Benavidez and permission to repeal the mandatory pretender and hold all the hostage belts for so long and not allowing the weight class to conduct its course as it should.”
Heritage or payment?
If you look at it from a neutral point of view without anger at any warrior, it seems that Crawford will not win because of his experience at the age of 168, lack of power and age. In addition, he can take this fight for all the wrong reasons, rising to fight Canelo for a payout day, and not because of his heritage.
Crawford says he did it for older purposes, but it sounds like Hogwash. If he did it because of this, he would rise and fight with one of the best pretenders, such as David Benavidez, David Morrell or Diego Pacco. It’s more about money.
“I think that Crawford wins for better boxing because he started his career in the right way, trying to chase best all the time. I feel that he is constantly being tested. This Madrimov fight was very impressive. Madrimov is a very good warrior. This fight was neck and neck. It could have been a draw. It was a high level chess.
“To be able to maintain this concentration at the age of 30 against this newborn, high warrior IQ with an explosive and naturally larger warrior, it was impressive for me. He [Crawford] Perhaps too compact on Canelo, but it is definitely not close to Crawford’s skills.
“Perhaps he is better than Canelo with right -handed attitude and this is not his attitude. Crawford is mainly Southpaw. Crawford is more versatile in one attitude than Canelo, but is he too compact? One thing I noticed in Madrimov’s fight was Crawford to give more land than usual. Canelo in the Golovkin rematch pressed. One thing that Canelo is doing well is a well -cutting ring. Can you take a smaller guy spacing [Crawford] Because he will need intervals because he is much smaller. I don’t know – said Malignaggi.
Hamzah Sheeraz will go to a super medium weight to start the campaign in this weight class after his fatal effort against the WBC champion 160-lb Carlos Adames last month.
Profit path
Promoter Frank Warren said Ring that Sheeraz, 25 years, will move to 168. This movement makes sense for Sheeraz, because it can come on a colossal payout day if he gets the title shot with a unified Master of a super medium -sized Canelo Alvarez.
Most fans will agree that Hamzah will do worse at 168, but there is no real choice. It is not possible to money at the age of 160, and he apparently will never win the world title against existing masters in the division. At least if he moves to a super medium weight, he can get a lot of payment, and then go to the stars.
Hamzah Sheeraz must be far from these contenders because they would ruin his chances of fighting Canelo:
– Diego Pacheco – Oslyys Iglesias – Caleb plant – Christian Milli – Jaime Mungia – Bruno Surace: *It can be winning – Sergiy Derevyanchenko
Warren must treat these guys as an equivalent Third rail And keep Hamzah far from them if he wants him to win long enough to fight Canelo for a giant payment.
Of course, you can’t match sheerase Against Lithe massive killers Like David Benavidez, David Morrell, Callum Smith, Joshua Batsi, Anthony Yarde or Artur Beterbiev. It is not built for this type of warrior.
Plan
Look at Edgar Berlang. He built a gaunt record of 21 tomato cans and was chosen by Canelo in September last year, and received a huge payment of $ 10 million. If it worked for Berlang, maybe also for Hamzah.
Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KO) looked completely outside his league against Adames, seemingly losing 11 out of 12 rounds, but the judges surprisingly won the fight with an unpopular 12-round draw. However, the fans saw that Hamzah was crossed and perceived it as a loss.
Adames unveiled Sheerase in this fight, showing that one should not fight for the title of master of the master. The point is that Adames was seen as the weakest link among the champions aged 160, and Sheeraz looked staring.
Sheeraz could fight IBF and WBO master, Janibek Alimkhanuly or WBA master Erislanda Lara. These guys are considered the best fighters in the division, but Hamzaah would be food for them.
WBA Master of Pentecost Nick Ball I weigh at 125.9 pounds, and the pretender, i.e. Doheny, came at 126 after he initially weighed 126.1 during Friday weighing for the 12-round headliner on Saturday, March 15 at M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool, England.

Fulton aim
Ball (21-0-1, 12 KO) admits that the choice of 38-year-old Doheny (26-5, 20 KO) was not the choice of the opponent, but it leaves his manager and promoter to choose who he is fighting. He criticized a lot of criticism for fighting this older warrior who felt defeat from Nayy Inoue in September last year.
If such a 28 -year -old ball is in line with his promoter, he could hold his WBA belt forever. Nick says, however, that he hopes for unification, and the guy he wants is the WBC champion, Stephen Fultonwhich recently captured the Brandon Figueroa belt last month.
Weighing the results
Nick Ball – 125.9 TJ Doheny – 126 Herrera cores – 134.9 Jose Macias Enriquez – 134.2
Of all the fighters in Saturday Undercard, a real talent that you can keep an eye on Herrera Core (16-0, 14 KO). He is the best from the group so far and can soon get the title of World Champion, if he has not avoided the way we saw last month with the WBC Lightweight Shakur Stevenson champion, who turned in favor of fighting Josh Padley on February 22 in Riyjad.
Herrera fights with Jose Macias Enriquez (21-3-2, 8 KO) in a 10-round fight. Don’t blink. Herrera will probably scare this guy within two or three rounds.
Passive path
“Not really. I don’t look at it,” said Nick Ball IFL TV Asked if, i.e. Doheny, he was his enemy’s choice. I just focus on training. My manager and promoter, Frank, sort it all. I am just ready for everyone and anyone who is on the night of fighting, I fight them – Ball said, revealing it He takes passive, non -reservation Approach to choose opponents.
“I expect a strenuous fight. I want to say, “come back to me when it’s on my weight” because it’s still in Super Bantam. When he is on my weight, I will come back to me, I will wait for him – said Ball about the constant questions that the unquestioned super Bantam champion receives, Nayya Inoue, he is expected to direct him when he goes to 126.
“There may be a fight between this [Inoue moving up to face Ball]And I hope it could be a union. It would be good, and then this year we will see if such a fight will happen. In general, the main path is Saturday evening. This belt [WBC] This is my belt and I come for this belt [currently held by Stephen Fulton]. It will be mine. I hope that one day I can fight and recover for it because I should have it, “Ball said.
Pylos, Greece – a sex dispute with the participation of two boxers at the Olympic Games in Paris in 2024. He was the result of a Russian false information campaign and had little to do with reality, said on Saturday the president of the International Olympic Committee Thomas Bach.
Bach, who gives way in June after 12 years as a president, said that the IOC must fight many similar campaigns before and after Paris matches.
The boxing competition at the Paris Games was conducted by the IOC after the international boxing association of the Association of Returnia was deprived of last year due to lack of reforms in the field of management and finance. But the association, led by the Russian businessman Umara Kremlev with close connections with Kremlin, accused the IOC of permission to compete two athletes, IMane Khelif and Lin Yu-Inting, which were banned by IBA, citing a chromosome test, competition.
There was a bitter war of words between organizations.
“I would not consider it a real crisis, because the whole discussion is based on a false information campaign from Russia,” said Bach Reuters in the southern Greek coastal resort, where his successor will be elected on Thursday. “It was part of many, many false information campaigns with which we had to face Russia before Paris and Paris.”
Several such campaigns took place before Paris, including what the IOC said at that time were repetitive attempts at hacking, as well as a joke of the Russian group addressed to Bach and pretending to be representatives of the African Union committee.
Bach said that the dispute over boxers would have been a failure if it wasn’t for IBA, considering that two boxers had been competing for years, including at the Olympic Games in Tokyo in 2021, without problems.
The IOC does not have a universal principle of the participation of athletes or transgender athletes with differences in sexual development, with each federation developing its own regulations.
Bach also said that he had no concerns about the preparation for the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028, calling US President Donald Trump a forceful supporter and promoter of the project.
“Let the Organizational Committee … Continue cooperation with President Trump and its administration, because they established very good relations,” said Bach, asked what his advice is for his successors regarding the Olympic Games and Trump in Los Angeles. “The IOC should trust in his American partners and friends and the confidence that President Trump from the very beginning was a forceful supporter and promoter of the Olympic Games.”
