Claim of Terence Crawford “TOP 3 of all time” after Canelo Fight Ignitites Gniew: Fans accuse him of ignorance and disrespect for boxing legends
Published

Comment of Terenka Crawford on his victory over Canelo Alvarez, winning him the highest place on the list of all time for a pound for a pound, a debate of this topic, and many of them think He is completely uneducated about the history of this sport.
(Loan: Zach Delgado/Matchroom)
Historical naivety
They believe that Crawford does not know about past great ones, so he naively thinks that the victory at Canelo is enough to put him in front of the fighters who did much more in their career. Great from the past did not only have two good names on their CVs, as Crawford does.
They had records full of powerful talent. You can’t blame Terenka for not knowing the past of great fighters. Crawford is not the only vigorous warrior who is not aware of the history of this sport.
In an interview with Manouk AkopyanCrawford (41-0, 31 KO) pointed out that he would be up with three weight classes when he challenges Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) for what he predicts will be the undisputed championship of the super medium medium average on September 13.
It would be impressive if Crawford defeated Canelo to become three unquestioned champion. Still, it would be arduous to put it high because of the constrained CV.
Compared to the fighters from the past who fought with the excellent opposition throughout their career, the record of Terence is almost completely idle of the elite opposition. He won with Errol Spence, but not much more in his CV would suggest that he belonged to the top 3 or in the top 50 pounds for the pound of all time.
The best pound fighters from the past
Sugar Ray Robinson
Muhammad Ali
Oscar de la Hoya
Roberto Durán
Henry Armstrong
Willie Pep
Pernell Whitaker
Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Manny Pacquiao
Roy Jones Jr.
Sugar Ray Leonard
Julio César Chávez
Jack Johnson
Jack Dempsey
Ezzard Charles
Archie Moore
Sandy Saddler
Ricardo López
Carlos Monzón
Bernard Hopkins
This is only a tiny list of fighters who have compiled better records than Crawford. Even if Terenka is experiencing her best Canelo on September 13, it would be crazy to place him over these fighters.
Illusions or reality?
It’s okay that the warrior has confidence, but when their assessment goes overboard, they are unhappy, illusive and do not contact reality. Crawford’s inflated sense of his achievements has been around for years.
So it’s not just a up-to-date thing. He consistently assessed himself at the top and so far no one paid attention to him, because he never fought with a significant opposition.
At this point, Alvarez is widely perceived as he lost his ambition and fighting only for money. Crawford is a bit on the same boat. He also does not take risks. It seems that he focused on obtaining the largest payment day, not fighting the most powerful pretenders. Canelo is the largest payment day for Nebraska Native.
Canelo currently has three lanes, but he is a favorite to pick up the last remaining lane against the IBF 168-LB William Scull on May 3. Crawford fought only once in 154 after passing from 147 in August last year. So it is arduous to call him a younger average weight, because experience in this weight class is constrained to one fight with Israil Madrimov.
Crawford did not want to heated up in 168 before he called Canelo to the lanes in September, but he could. It was his choice and decided to sit and wait.

Shelly Finkel reveals the reason for dismissal of Deontay Wilder

March 29, 2025
Manager Shelly Finkel informed worldboxingnews.com about the cause of the year -round dismissal of Deontay Wilder.
Wilder confirmed the return to the action of June 27 in Wichita, Kansas, ending another twelve months outside the former massive world champion.
Then WBN asked Finkel if the reports were exact and whether he would be involved after the prolonged secret over the next movement of Wilder. Finkel confirmed “yes” on both questions.
World Boxing News asked Finkela on the set after raising his eyebrows about the opponent’s caliber. Wilder decided to face the unknown, Tyrrell Herndon. Wilder signed cooperation with the Global Combat Collective on BLK Prime, despite the clash, and Francis Ngannou apparently is on the table.
Wilder can play a long game, with the last bone roll against Anthony Joshua at the end of the year.
Finkel would not be held to plans, but he revealed Wilder’s ailment, who kept him away from the ring.
“First of all, he had the right shoulder surgery,” finkel said only worldboxingnews.com. “Now, when it healed, we’ll go from here.”
“The Bronze Bomber” chose the route rarely walk by former heavyweight rulers, especially as one of the five best stars of the last decade. Wilder came down the same tunnel Tyson Fury when he returned from three -year absence in 2018.
“The Gypsy King” received two much less known opponents in Sefer Seferi and Francesco Paneta before Wilder took in December. However, since then, the huge difference is that Wilder is 40 years aged this year.
Fury was 29 years aged when he had to rebuild when the British returned to the ring, but Wilder has no time to waste in the return of the fight with an opponent like Herndon.
Wilder suffered four failures in five years, issuing three bad results with just one victory. Alabama detained Robert Heleniusz, his enduring sparring partner, in 177 seconds.
For a long time, the heavyweight champion WBC then lost to Joseph Parker and was knocked out by Zhilei Zhang in June last year. Now he is taking Herndon [24-5, 15 KOs] To improve your record 43-4-1, 42 KOS.
At the age of 39, Wilder will have to quickly send Herndon to be treated seriously in sport again. Another knockout is a necessity in the next fight; Wilder must look good if he dreams and dreams of fighting for a belt in the future.
If the rising star Richard Torrez Jr. She destroyed Herndon into two parts, then the global superstar must do like the resurrection of his career.
Wilder vs Herndon lives on June 27 Blk Prime with Charles Koch Arena in Wichita.

Gervonta Davis told Bob Arum “Treating boxing” after the Roach fight
Published

March 29, 2025
Bob Arum, a top -class supervisor, says that Gervonta Davis lost the fight against Lamont Roach on March 1 and must start playing sport “seriously.” Arum believes that Tank (30-0-1, 28 KO) treats boxing, as if “something like the media” and he “It seems ordinary.”
Tank may seem ordinary for Arum, but he is still a guy with great money at the age of 135, and the one with whom he hopes that he will match his fighters.
Bob says that he looked well at Tank Davis fights because he saw him as a potential opponent for some of his fighters, which he promotes in the highest rank. He probably talks about Keyshawn Davis, Raymond Muratalla and Abdullah Mason. These are three guys whose arum is at the age of 135 who are dynamic. Vasily Lomachenko is injured and Arum does not know if he resumed his career.
Arum asks if Tank can win a rematch from Roach because he doesn’t know if he can change. He does not leave right away and does not speak, but Tank fought the same swaying with the whole career. His power gave him in the fight against Rolando Romero, Ryan Garcia and Mario Barrios.
Davis was kept on a controversial 12-round draw against Roach and is lucky that the judge, Steve Willis, did not shoot him as a knocking out in the ninth round, when Tank threw his knees. The judge allowed him to move and said nothing about Davis, who calls his time and returns to his corner to wipe his fat from his eyes.
“Treat it seriously”
“I thought Roach won the fight. It was a strict fight,” said Bob Arum Sean Zittel About Clash Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach at the beginning of this month on March 1. “I think that Davis must start treating boxing seriously. This is not just a kind of media. It seems ordinary. I don’t know if he is able to change,” Arum said when Tank Davis was asked if the Roach rematch would win.
“I wanted to take a good look at him because he was mentioned as a possible opponent for fighters that I promote,” said Arum about Gervont.
The tank can be a retirement shortly after he has gathered two or three Paydays. The Roach rematch is almost certain, but then it is possible to fight Jake Paul. This would bring a fortune to the tank. Before retiring, there is also a rematch with Ryan Garcia.
Gervont will not fight Keyshawn Davis. We hope that Arum does not count on such a fight, because there is a zero chance for it. Keyshawn has no fans base so that Tank may be interested in fighting him.

Fears of Paulie Malignaggi before the boxing league, Turki Alalshikh and TKO Dany White
Published
4 hours agoon
March 29, 2025
By Frank Bay: The former MOPS Paulie Malignaggi was recently critical of Turk Alalshikh and Dana White in his podcast Paulie TV. Paulie is a good watch because it is witty, at the same time understands the internal functioning of boxing.
It seems to be real and allows you to know that he doesn’t like Dany White. He claims that there may be prejudice against the dish and Turks because he works for the Pro Box TV. Paulie announced that his Pro Box TV and Tuki Alalshikh platform are competitors in the boxing industry. He claims that Turki was banned by Pro Box TV to have access to their events. There are other boxing platforms in social media in the event that it seems to be the accident not kissing the ring, which was also refused access to Turki’s boxing events. This raised red flags in the industry, which Paulie is trying to reveal.
Red flags
Paulie says that he will continue to talk about the undertaking of Turka with Dana White, TKO, as objectively as possible. After hearing what Paulie TV had to say, my ears also set off. I want to share my thoughts on the interrogation of Paulie about the desired Turk league in 2026 and the White dish.
Rankings and wage scales
The questions that arose were based on the leakage of the scale of salary of incoming fighters and the ranking system, with which the warrior would be paid. The reported scale of remuneration was a rocky fighter. For those who are not sure what it is, what an amateur ready to twist Pro would be guaranteed on the basis of a minimum.
It was designed to pay fighters properly based on the ranking system. It would start with the ranking downstairs, and your salary would enhance if, for example, you got up to #15, and then #10, then #5 and so on. As it differs, say, an outstanding Olympian signed by the main promoter is that the provisions would pay much higher for lower fights, simply because of the pedigree of talent.
Paulie asks why the best talent would be with Turkey just to be a drawer with a minimum, equal to much less talents, traveling all the time traveling for a much more tough path? This novel league remuneration and ranking system would not make sense for future talents at the highest level if you started a career with TKO Turkis.
Pros and disadvantages?
Paulie claims that the most crucial talents are better for recognized promoters, such as, for example, the highest ranking, because they turned out to be the best talent guides. The best talent of the highest rank will receive much more guaranteed minima when traveling to the championships. During this highest rank, it will match them as carefully as possible, usually from 10 to 15 fights, which fans consider cannon feed or lining at a record level of fighting. Paulie says that this is good for the adolescent warrior.
Developing that when they reach the sanction bodies of the rankings, their salary will enhance significantly. As a fan, we see that the best rank is one of the best in conducting (i.e. production) of their talent. For example, Keyshawn Davis recently. Davis was considered the top level of Turning Pro. The highest rank was able to easily build Keyshawn in the master.
Keyshawn was able to put his record from 10 to 12 relative cannons. Allowing him to be in the best position in a ranking organization, such as WBO, until he received the title shot. Davis was lucky that he had the highest rank, who also had a champion, Denys Berinchyk, thus fighting for the title. The reservation is that Berinchyk was seen as the weakest master of links. Paulie would say that this situation is good for a warrior. Davis was able to make a compact fortune fighting less than star competition, on the road to becoming a champion in which he earns a lot more money.
Paulie says that TKO has different plans
Depending on how you look at the Keyshawn Davis situation, fans can consider it good for a warrior, but bad for boxing. Based on the statement of Paulie about how TKO plans to pay his adolescent future warriors, it seems that the venerable way of building a warrior will be a past. Paulie believes that the way TKO plans to build his masters will eventually turn out to be good for the company, but bad for fighters.
Newborn talent who signs with Dana White and TKO will not be well paid to feast taxi drivers that can hit a shiny 30-0 record from 27kos. No, the outline seems that adolescent warriors match tough from the first day. They will be paid decently based on their results. It seems fair outside, but not Paulie. He considers it a grave problem if you want to build the main boxing stars.
The main argument that seems to make sense is basic that before the adolescent talent reaches the top, they will be burned. Paulie, being a warrior, claims that in boxing you cannot have a tough fight after a tough fight. A group of the best boxers consistently fighting with each other in exhausting fights, will lead to the fact that no one will be able to join and become a global star.
Everyone will reject, and their skills and bodies will erod too quickly to have long careers such as Legends of the Past. Durans, Leonard’s, De la Hoyas and Canelos, unlike conviction, were carefully adapted and conducted. They did not fight the killer for the killer, believe or not. They had sections of mediocre opponents, took free or did not take some fights.
On the way on the ladder they did not fight the best guys right away. Pauli says that this is how boxing works and you can manage and build guys who have a career of 10, 15 and even 20 years venerable. In the TKO format you would be lucky to have the prevailing champion for over 2 years. Thanks TKO yes, you’ll get great duels from adolescent pretenders to masters, but it wouldn’t last long. After a few years, the talent pool would be seriously exhausted. For adolescent fighters, this means that when you go with TKO, you can take too much damage to the championship that your run will be really very tiny. And then what?
Because the fans are correct or did it get stuck in the venerable way of the boxing industry? What if your son is fighting, what route would you lead him? I mostly agree with Paulie. I think that TKO will be good for fans, but in the long run bad for fighters.
