Roy Jones Jr. He says that Terenka Crawford cannot afford to escape against Canelo Alvarez, because he will give him confidence that he won him to get a victory on September 13.

Jones Jr. He wants Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) to stand and fight the undisputed champion of the super medium weight Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO) from the first round to show his strength. Roy does not say what plan B for Crawford is if he can’t deal with Canelo’s power.

Why running is “stupid”

“You are completely wrong. The first thing is how you intend to move and run away with Canelo? You will give him everything he wants. It’s stupid,” said Roy Jones Jr. Seconds Asked if Terenka Crawford should employ movement to slip out Canelo Alvarez all night on September 13.

Spence is fighting anomalia

Crawford will move because he did it through his entire career. The only fight he did not escape is when he fought the accident with a car abandoned, inactive Errol Spence Jr. In 2023, Crawford did not have to do so, because Spence looked like sluned, half a stunned zombie tonight.

Terenka cannot do it against Canelo, because that night he will not be the equivalent of Ghulu. He will be powerful, vigilant and will want to hit the holes through Crawford.

“If you run away from a great man, you will give him all the certainty he wants.” Oh, everything I have to do is catch him. He is running now. He doesn’t want to fight. Everything I have to do is catch him. ” No, you don’t go there with this mentality.

There is a large difference between what Roy Jones Jr. He fought with the then heavyweight champion of WBA, John Ruiz in 2003, and Crawford moved up with three weight classes to challenge the powerful Canelo for his undisputed medium weight championship.

Ruiz was not a puncher; He was a clinker and was seen as the weakest connection between the masters at that time. Roy Jr. He knew what he was doing when choosing him, not the other three masters. It was cherry on his part.

Early key rounds

“Listen, I come here. I will tilt the scale as ponderous weight and make you feel ponderous in the first round. Bud has to do the same,” said Jones Jr.

Well, or Jones Jr. He would decide to mix it early if in 2003 he undertook these two ponderous scales ::

– Lennox Lewis: WBC
– Corrie Sanders: WBO

If Roy fought them aggressively in the first round, he would be knocked out. Thus, giving Crawford’s advice, which he did not follow in his career, is useless. Jones Jr. He would never fight if he fought the best, not the weakest link.

“He must tilt the scale to 168 pounds and must make you feel that it is 168-pound when he hits the ring. If you don’t do it at the beginning, now you will have a problem,” said Jones Jr.

Turk’s expectations Alalshikh

It would be great if Crawford decided to defend with Canelo from the first round, because Turks Alalshikh will pay him a lot of money, supposedly $ 50 million. It would smile on Turk’s face if Crawford got involved and not to run, just like in his last fight with Israil Madrimov. It was a dull chess match.
