Unreaccided Title Terenka Crawford: Call for three fights before he faces Canelo
Published
1 year agoon
Terenka Crawford says that he is not trying to knock out Canelo Alvarez when he challenges him for his three or four titles of super medium weight in September. His goal is to simply “defeat him”. He says, however, that he parched with larger guys throughout his career and he feels that he has the power to potentially knocking Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) if he caught him with a quick shot that he can’t see.
Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) did not hurt his last opponent, former WBA Master Junior Middle weight Israil Madrimov, 3 August and was lucky to win the decision. Madrimov overtook the whole fight and made him look like his age, a 38-year-old who wants to put a bank account before retiring.
Defective vision
Terenca says that if I stop Canelo in September, it will make it #3 All -period for a pound. His statement indicates that he does not know much about the history of sport, because even if he defeated the disappearing, collecting Mexican star Alvarez, he would not put him in the first 20 pounds for the pound of all time.
Cvford’s CV is completely tender that he couldn’t even create a letters in the top twenty, because the only significant guy whose beaten so far is washed Errol Spence, who has been fighting in leisurely motion since his terrible car accident in 2019.
You will win this win at Crawford’s CV; You stayed with Madrimov and Over-the-Hill Kell Brook and Shawn Porter. They were both at the end of their career when Crawford fought them.
“I don’t have to stop him. I just have to defeat him. I’m not going there, trying to throw away Canelo. Can it happen? Yes, absolutely,” said Crawford to Manouk Akopyan’s YouTube Channel about his fight with the United Champion Super Middle Medium in Canelo Alvarez on September 13.
We already know how Crawford plans to fight Canelo, because his coach, Brian “Bomac” McIntyre, has already distributed the game plan. He said that they would copy the plan of Floyd Mayweather Jr., stabbing, throwing individual arrows, moving and holding. It will be a very dull fight, and boxing fans who order it at PPV will be crazy for cheating. What do they expect?
If you watch Crawford’s last fight with Israil Madrimov on August 3, he shows exactly how I will try to beat Canelo. He will change the fight into a chess match because his power will not be there. He did not show any power, from 147 to 154 against Madrimov. He looked like your typical senior warrior, playing his string, then retired.
“I come from a smaller weight class, which is faster. So if he is caught with a blow that he does not see, he is definitely able to be hurt. I try to fight my fight. If the knockout is there, of course I will take it.
“I think Canelo has been refraining in the last few fights. I don’t think he was so excited,” said Crawford, asked if Canelo is still in the best condition at this stage of her career. I think that against me it will be the best Kanel we have seen. All my career parked up large guys.
“Many people are furious that I had such an opportunity. They don’t want to see how I have the opportunity for my own reasons,” said Crawford about the fight against Alvarez. “When I beat Canelo Alvarez, I will be in the top 3, a pound for pounds of fighters.
Ignoring the rank
Interestingly, Crawford is still unable to understand why fans and media are nervous that he gets the title shot with a unified Master of Super Medium weight Canelo. How can Crawford be so blunt? Is it intentional?
Boxing is to be a sport, and when you have a warrior moving around two weight classes to challenge the world champion, not fighting the competition, beating the best pretenders, they mock this sport.
Does he ask too much for Crawford to be forced to get his mega-featured day against Canelo Three or mini-turrees By going against these three killers?
- David Benavidez
- David Morrell
- Oslyys Iglesias
If Crawford defeated these three killers, fans would not have any scruples towards him, challenging Canelo for his three titles. But in the way it is set now, Terenka goes after two divisions after a year of the ring, without experience and a mature 38-year-old. In no way Crawford deserves to jump over the line before Benavidez, Morrell and Iglesias to the title.
I left pretenders to Supercek in the average weight of Diego Pachaco, Edgar Berlanga, Caleb Plant and Christian Mbilli, Jaime Munguia, because I do not judge them. Iglesias, Morrell and Benavidez are levels above this I’m sorry.

Prince Naseem Hamed predicts Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight: ‘It’s going to sound crazy’

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua look set to face each other later this year in what could be one of the biggest British boxing events of all time.
Another British legend, Naseem Hamed, presented the course of the fight in a surprising way.
Fury had his ring returned within a a decision victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov earlier this monthshaking off ring rust at the age of 37 and allegedly preparing for a showdown with Joshua that the “Gypsy King” was set to take place this summer.
However, ‘AJ’ instead maintained that he would prefer a warm-up fight first, with the Londoner expected to return to action in July, ahead of a long-awaited meeting with his arch-rival in November.
I’m talking to talkSPORT BoxingHamed was looking forward to this match and suggested that a draw could be on the cards.
“Who do I think will win the fight between AJ and Fury? Well, that is the question and everyone wants to know.
“Years ago, Tyson had this awkward style for me where he could make AJ look stupid, that’s true. Now everything has changed. Tyson seemed to have backed off a little bit.
“But with Tyson Fury you never know, maybe one night he’ll show up and box amazingly and do what he did to Wilder. Those first few rounds [against Makhmudov]I was a little disappointed that he didn’t go from the start.
“This is going to sound crazy to you, but would it be unbelievable if I said it could be a draw?”
It is unclear whether Fury will also fight in the summer or whether he will avoid risking a lucrative romance with Joshua and wait patiently on the sidelines.
Ben Whittaker’s next few months are already taking shape following his quick knockout victory in Liverpool, and Adam Smith outlines a busy summer schedule that should finally see the delicate heavyweight fighter face stronger tests
Smith said Whittaker is expected to return to the United States in overdue June on the Jaron “Boots” Ennis card, then return to the UK in the summer for a major date in his hometown of Birmingham.
Whittaker stopped Brian Suarez in two rounds last weekend and performed brilliantly throughout, adding another early finish to the stretch that helped rebuild attention around him after his first fight with Liam Cameron ended in a draw.
Smith said the June outing would support expose Whittaker to a wider audience ahead of a bigger national night later in the year.
“He will fight at the end of June in America at the Boots Ennis gala. That’s good. Show him to a global audience. Then he will come back here in overdue summer, maybe early September and fight in Birmingham in a huge fight,” Adam Smith said in an interview with Sport Boxing.
Smith also named British opponents who could be next, naming Lyndon Arthur, Brad Rea and Craig Richards as possible options once Whittaker returns home.
Smith believes that in the long term, bigger domestic fights with Joshua Buatsi and Anthony Yard should come within the next year if Whittaker continues to win.
“Buatsis and Yards need to be delivered within the next 6-12 months.”
Whittaker has had a lot of notoriety since turning pro, but the activity and matchmaking are looking more grave now. The next two fights should tell more than the first ten.

Oscar De La Hoya admits that he would consider returning on one condition

Six-division world champion and Golden Boy promoter Oscar De La Hoya hasn’t fought since 2008, but revealed he would be willing to return for one fighter.
De La Hoya is a newfangled pound-for-pound legend, being one of only two six-division champions in the history of the sport – joined by Filipino fan favorite Manny Pacquiao, who has reached eighth in this ultra-elite club.
While De La Hoya has moved on to promote the sport, “Pac Man” recently returned to the pro ranks, challenging Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight world title last July in an attempt to break his own record as boxing’s oldest 147-pound ruler.
Pacquiao could only get a draw in that fight, but now he’s ready for an even bigger fight – at least financially – after signing a contract for a rematch with Floyd Mayweather, who defeated him in 2015 in the “Fight of the Century.”
Time will tell whether this fight will have an impact on Mayweather’s renowned 50-0 record or not. “TBE” apparently wants to change his contract to an exhibition fight despite signing a contract for sanctioned competition.
If that fight takes place in September, Mayweather will come out on top again, De La Hoya said Fighting the noise that he would also be willing to have a rematch with Mayweather.
“I am a fighter. I will always be a fighter. If Mayweather beats Pacquiao, Floyd, you owe me a rematch! Let’s go!”
Mayweather defeated De La Hoya by split decision to win the WBC super lightweight title in 2007, and De La Hoya still maintains he deserved to win the fight.
