Bruce Carrington chooses Terence Crawford to “convincingly” Canelo Alvarez on September 12. An entrepreneur of a featherweight, Carrington, notes that the undisputed super middle WWWeight Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO) has “Free feet” Historically, he did not cope well against “Movers”, which he is not to hit. He indicates that the low level of 152 Alvareza against the IBF champion 168-LB William Scull on last Saturday is an example of his helplessness towards fighters who move.
Hiding the defect
Carrington says that when Canelo fought with the mobile Cuban Erislanda Lara and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Earlier in his career over ten years ago he had snail-paced feet. It was worse when it aged. Bruce does not think that Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) is moving to the extent in which Scull did, but he will do enough to leave Alvarez on a few opportunities to land his great arrows of power.
Carrington states that Canelo was able to Hide your disadvantage of snail-paced feet Choosing opponents who moved little. The only fighters he fought during his mobility career were Mayweather, Erisland, Scull and Dmitry Bivol. Alvarez probably lost to three of these four. Even the Scull fight was in the reality closely, and some believe that the Cuban deserved to win.
“Crawford all the way. He appears every time when it comes to great fights. I feel that he really intends to refine the game plan about what to do to beat Canelo,” said Bruce Carrington Boxing fansAnalyzing the fight Canelo Alvarez vs. Terenka Crawford on September 12.
Why Crawford will beat Canelo
Alvarez’s physical fall: the last two performances against Scull and Edgar Berlanga showed that the result, endurance and power of Canelo have dropped. He is now a three -leaf warrior.
The highest skills of Terence: JAB, Ruch and IQ Crawford are at a better level than Canelo. The Mexican star is just a constrained anti -tap, which loads on individual arrows.
Crawford’s movement and range: Crawford’s leg work is much better than a low, low -like Canelo leg, which fights, as if moving a dice in mud.
Better coaching: Crawford’s coach, Bomac, is the best in creating game plans. Crawford’s coach is like a scientist with the way he spreads his opponents and fights the right strategies to defeat them. He has already invented how to beat Canelo.
“We saw in the last fight [against William Scull] The fact that Canelo can’t do very well against Movers and I don’t think Crawford is moving as much as Scull, “said Carrington. “It was so excessive as Scull did. But it will mix in this move with his crime and make it quite a good fight.”
Scull could easily win the fight if he believed in himself and reported to attack Canelo. During the exchange, he became better than the Mexican star, which made him afraid to throw. One of the reasons why Alvarez ended his crime in the second half was the fear of counteracting Scull.
“I don’t think he stops Canelo in any way, but I feel that Bud can win convincingly,” said Carrington about Terenu. “I feel that Canelo’s feet were snail-paced. You saw when he fought [Erislandy] Lara [in 2014]. You saw it even when he was younger when he fought with Mayweather [in 2013]. “
Everyone could see that Canelo has snail-paced feet from watching his fights. It has always been like that. In 2014 he lost to Erisland, but two judges gave Kubana a strict contract. After this fight, Canelo became very selective in his opponents, always choosing stationary fighters. He fought only one good opponent after Lara’s fight, Gennadiy Golovkin. Even then he waited for 36 years before he fought him. He could fight GGG when he was 32 years ancient, but he put him away until he had a bad performance against Kell Brook.
Punch shy master
“If he [Canelo] He has an applicant in front of him, he will not do it either, “said Carrington about Canelo.” He wants someone who is able to stand before him, so that he can connect with these great shots. If not, he will throw air. So he does not intend to throw as many blows as you saw when he fought with Scull. He didn’t throw many blows [Note: Canelo threw 152 punches against Scull] If he doesn’t feel confident to hit you.
“Yes, Canelo had snail-paced feet. Simply his opponents he fought, they did not move to reveal it,” said Carrington.
The last performance of Canelo Alvarez last Saturday evening against William Scull showed fans that he no longer belonged to the first place in the 168 pounds ranking. It is now too faded to rightly stop in the first place, even though it technically maintains the undisputed medium championship. 34 -year -old Alvarez is fighting Terenka Crawford on September 12, and many people think that they will lose badly.
Once a predator …
In terms of skill, Canelo is broken shell From the war that once was, holding with great glue, using his popularity Mega-Bucks to manually collect his opposition. Canelo kept his career by choosing and choosing the opposition for years.
Based on the last four performances of Canelo, he cannot be kept on site 1 only because of his victories regarding the penniless opposition he faced. Fans perceive that Alvarez artificially retained his place No. 1, avoiding and avoiding predatory killers in 168 for the last four years. If he were real, he would be exhausted and mentioned a long time ago.

This list requires many restructuring because it does not represent reality. Canelo is not number 1 in terms of how she is fighting now. It still belongs to the top five, but nowhere near place No. 1 or No. 2.
Time to degrade
His tilting Mbilla is a sufficient reason to degrade him from the first place. Throwing Canelo from the whole list makes sense because it doesn’t fight the best. In every sport, if the team refuses to compete with other best teams, they will be launched. NFL, NBA and NHL teams cannot refuse to play other teams they are afraid to lose.
In addition, his decision to fight David Benavidez and David Morrell, when these two killers continued to camp in 168, when No. 1 in the Super Middle Wweight ranking will decide not to fight the best sharks in the division, that is automatic loss In my book.
Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz could fight Angel Fierro on Undercard Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios in July. This event still has to be confirmed. Cruz (27-3-1, 18 KO) defeated Fierro (27-3-2, 18 KO) with a unanimous decision at the beginning of this year on February 1, with a result of 98-92, 97-93 and 96-94. There would be a rematch because some boxing fans thought it was a controversial result.
Fierro again?
I watched the fight and I had a Cruz victory 9-1. There was no controversy. The only question about scoring is: why the judges had it so close. Pitbull dominated this fight, but the judges did not recognize him as arrows of the bodies that he landed all the time. Fans prefer Cruz to fight someone else, for example the WBA welter run master, Gary Antuanne Russell, IBF Richardson Hitchins master or Teofimo Lopez for his WBO belt.
Pitbull Cruz could fight Ryan Garcia last Friday in the evening, but he did not want to negotiate with him fighting when he was still on February to fight Fierro. Cruz must now kick, because not only he would earn more money by fighting Ryan, but would win the “ordinary” title of WBA “ordinary” welterweight title. If he took a fight in Garcia and won, he would be able to earn huge money in a rematch against another popular warrior.
What Pitbull does not need is to get stuck in making a rematch against pretenders just because one of his fights was competitive or controversial. He must go further, challenging for world titles.
Pitbull style
Cruz looked like a little Mike Tyson against Fierrero. It was impressive how he adapted when Fierro still forced him to shot in the head. Cruz focused on his body and could not do anything to get off these shots. Again, the judges did not award Pitbull as his work, because they would consider it a skewed decision if they did.
Fierro lost two of the last three fights and heads towards the status of the journeyman. His second defeat was Alfredo Santiago last year in June, and it was a wide 10-round defeat of the decision. If anyone was blurring, he should be a rematch, it should be Santiago.
