Canelo Alvarez will attack the arms and arms of Terenka Crawford, which will slowly exploit him in the fight on September 13 in Las Vegas. Coach Abel Sanchez says that Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) will “feel” arms and shoulders. They will not avoid them, as in the case of head shots.

Crawford’s challenge

Sanchez believes that a two-level jump in the amount of 38-year-old Crawford will be too much for him, and will be eliminated or lost a wide decision on the unquestioned master of the super medium weight Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO).

“He just throws bombs, not taking care of what they are doing to him. He has a great defense,” said coach Abel Sanchez Round of the eighth boxing, TalkinG o Canelo Alvarez for the fight against Terenka Crawford. “Unfortunately, his feet do not move as well as he would move them, but its upper body is simply unbelievable.”

Crawford will try to hurt Canelo from the outside and spend it with single arrows. He will not fight him, as he did against Israil Madrimov, because Alvarez strikes too challenging.

Sanchez predicts the victory of Canelo

“He slides very well. He has great hands. He parrules very well and huge shots landed,” said Sanchez about Canelo. “So many may not land, but there are great shots that hurt. So I think Canelo stops him or finally a wide decision, and his corner must think about Crawford’s safety and health.”

Canelo’s endurance is his real problem because he is going too early in his fights and distributes round episodes. Crawford can be banking on this subject.

“At the beginning, the first shots are a shock. This is a cumulative effect. Canelo will hit him in his arms, as if he had never been hit before,” said Sanchez. “You remember. You remember Bivol with Beterbaiev, with the way he was hit. Okay, these guys were the same weight, but now you are talking about two different weight divisions.”

The weight will be significant, because Terenka must enter two weight classes, size and work on its power.

“When Canelo begins to hit him in his arms and shoulders, Crawford feels it. He is a great warrior, but that’s why we have divisions on the scale. Bob Foster was a great warrior until he moved.

“I advise against sparring in the gym so that people hit their heads. I want them to hit the body, hit their arms. I want them to hit their chest. I advise against it because there will be a lot of time,” said Abel.

Solomon Dacres Confidently Takes on Bakhodir Jalolov in Epic Showdown

"Solomon Dacres Confidently Takes on Bakhodir Jalolov in Epic Showdown"

Solomon Dacres expects to stop Bakhodir Jalolov tonight, but his record offers little support for that prediction against the 6’7″ two-time Olympic gold medalist.

Jalolov has looked sluggish enough lately to give critics room for skepticism. The dominant puncher seen in the amateur ranks rarely appears in his prize ring outings, prompting a few observers to sniff an upset. Regardless, Jalolov looking flat does not suddenly transform Dacres into a top threat.

“Got to get him out of there, man,” Dacres told SecondsOut. “Mid to late rounds.”

That would be a considerable leap for a fighter whose most revealing professional result remains his first-round stoppage defeat to David Adeleye in December 2024.

Dacres describes that loss as a “blip,” but it came against the most notable opponent he had faced. Across five years as a professional, he hasn’t built a record of beating contenders that would make a Jalolov knockout seem likely.

His points win against Vladyslav Sirenko also requires context. Sirenko amassed numbers without testing himself against true threats, meaning that victory hardly proves Dacres can deal with Jalolov’s height, reach, and southpaw boxing skills.

“This fight here is beyond English title level, man,” Dacres said. “This is like world level.”

Jalolov deserves criticism for how slowly his professional career has moved and for performances that haven’t matched expectations. His Olympic medals don’t excuse that, and Dacres has an opportunity to make him work.

Expecting Dacres to win because Jalolov underwhelms ignores his own modest punch output. Managing just three stoppages across ten victories, he lacks the firepower to back up big talk.

For Dacres to land the kinds of sustained combinations required to stop someone Jalolov’s size, he has to pin him down. Jalolov does not fight like a traditional, stationary heavyweight slugger. Even when he looks uninspired, he uses lateral footwork, maintains long range with his southpaw lead hand, and angles off before opponents can set their feet.

Dacres lacks both the foot speed to cut off the ring effectively and the explosive one-punch power to make Jalolov cautious. If Dacres tries to force the issue, he’ll put himself at risk of getting caught. Pressing aggressively against a 6’7″ southpaw who excels at firing straight left hands down the pipe is asking for trouble.

Unless Jalolov completely checks out mentally and stands against the ropes to trade, Dacres will be eating long jabs and counters all night, with a Jalolov stoppage being the far more probable outcome.
