Crawford claims that the greatness of all time

Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) is not seen as great, because he never beat one elite warrior during his 17-year professional career and looked terrible in his last fight, receiving a decision against Israil Madrimov.

“Of course, why wouldn’t I have?” Terenca Crawford said to Ring champs The YouTube channel, asked if he would put himself in the “biggest warrior” if he defeated Canelo Alvarez on September 13. “When you talk about all other warriors who would do or achieve something close.

If Crawford defeated Canelo, he would still not be near the “biggest warrior in history” because his tender CV is not registered. He fights with Canelo about an exaggerated Hill, who is not the best warrior at the age of 168. We do not know who is the best warrior in the super medium -sized ward, because Alvarez decided to avoid the best guys.

David Benavidez and David Morrell finally gave up waiting to fight him and moved to 175. The best who remained would have a perfect shot in defeating the Mexican star. Both Benavidez and Morrell would be joyful to return to 168 if Canelo agreed to fight them. They both beat him and would do the same with Crawford.

Bighters Canelo beat to collect 168 passengers

– Callum Smith: WBA and WBC
– Billy Joe Saunders: WBO
– Caleb plant: IBF
– William Scull: He regained the title of IBF

“When you say Sugar Ray Robinson. He never went up three weight classes and did not fight the undisputed champion,” said Crawford, who is better than Sugar Ray. “The first to vote Hall of Famer and one of the best Mexican fighters who left Mexico,” said Crawford with 35-year-old Canelo.

Crawford does not say that he would lose to the fighters in 160 and 168 if he was obliged to overcome the best talents in these weight classes before he would question Canelo for his undisputed average championship. Terenka receives an undeserved title he did not earn against Alvarez. If he had to defeat fighters at the age of 160, such as Janibek Alimkhanuly or in 168, like the Caleb plant, he would lose.

Prime Sugar Ray vs. Shoptorn Canelo

If Sugar Ray Robinson received preferential treatment that Crawford was given, he would move three divisions to capture world titles, especially if the master was washed. Put the Prime Sugar Ray with a larger 35-year-old warrior Over-the-Hill, he would win. Crawford is in a great situation, fighting with Shopnnorn Canelo, who looked extremely bad in his three three fights with William Scull, Edgar Berlang and Jaime Mungui.

“This is a difference when you talk about weight growth and who you fight with. You can say that I went to three classes in weight,” said Terenka, saying what he will achieve, if he moves from 154 to 168. Crawford presents himself as a warrior at 147 pounds, not a 154-pound guy, even though he moved in last year and captured the title of WBA.

The last decrease in Canelo’s results

Moving to the fight with 35-year-old Canelo, who is perceived by fans as Washed, is not the same as Crawford, who moved to 168 to face the real killer, who is in their splendor. The division is empty from talent when David Benavidez and David Morrell moved out. But Crawford would still be over his head, fighting with Christian Mbilli, Oslyys Iglesias and Caleb Plant. This is just a miniature list. He would also have problems fighting with other super medium -medium wagons. Youth, size and power of warriors such as Edgar Berlanga, Jaime Munguia and Hamzah Sheeraz would be a pure problem for Crawford.

“This is joy in this. Everyone wonders how I intend to do in 168. They don’t know. How can they say what will happen to a person who is nothing,” said Crawford, when some fans think that Canelo cannot hurt, but a Mexican star may hurt him.

Fans have a great idea about how Crawford will do in 168. They are able to extrapolate with how he made a move to 154, winning the fight against the razor with Israil Madrimov. Crawford looked aged, tender and tender in this fight. Now it will be a year older, conducting two divisions to fight Canelo. We already know how Crawford will work.

Is Crawford only fighting for Payday?

“I don’t know what they are talking about,” said Crawford, when he said fans think he was just fighting Canelo for payment and later retired. “I see that I’m fighting Canelo and this is the only thing about it. I don’t think about anything else than that.”

The reason why fans believe that Crawford is fighting only for money:

  1. Crawford, not wanting to prove in 168
  2. Sitting inactive for a year, waiting for the fight against Canelo
  3. Not planning to stay in 168. The fight is one -time for Crawford.

“No, not now. Why should I think about suspending them during the fight? I am blessed,” said Terency, responding to the interviewer saying that he is “great” to his age.

Of course, Crawford counts on a lucrative rematch from Canelo if he wins or if the competition is close. Even if he doesn’t get a rematch, he could earn a lot of money in the fight for 168 or 154 against the killers in these weight classes.

Crawford’s hope will be a rematch from Canelo. If not, it would be a kennel options to earn as much money as possible before retiring:

– David Benavidez
– Dmitryry Bivol
– Artur Beterbiev
– Sebastian Fundor
– Jaron “Boots” Ennis
– Vergil Ortiz
– Conor Benn
– Chris Eubank Jr.
– Tim Tsyzyu

Crawford would lose to most of these fighters, especially if he decides to remain inactive all year round before the fight.

Oleksandr Usyk is naming the heavyweight fight he wants after Rico Verhoeven

Oleksandr Usyk names the heavyweight fight he wants after Rico Verhoeven

Oleksandr Usyk is taking Rico Verhoeven seriously, perhaps because he will face a bigger challenge later.

The elite southpaw will face kickboxing icon Verhoeven on May 23 in Egypt in a fight focused on spectacle after years of hard-fought victories on the road. Even though Usyk has strayed from his usual matchmaking, he has now assured fans that they can expect a return to top-level championship boxing later.

Speaking on DAZN’s Inside the Ring, Usyk revealed that after the fight, his goal would be to become the undisputed heavyweight champion for a third time, with his primary goal being either Daniel Dubois or Fabio Wardley.

“For me it’s a real fight. Yes, Rico is not a good boxer, ok, nice fight, no problem, but I want my next fight [against the] Daniel Dubois and Wardley winner.”

Wardley was promoted from interim to full WBO champion when the Ukrainian vacated the belt rather than face him as mandatory challenger. His first defense against Dubois, scheduled for May 9 in Manchester, is perilous.

This is a legacy-based strategy that Usyk has used in the past, dropping the IBF belt to allow Dubois’ elevation, defending against Anthony Joshua, and then facing him to regain the belt. If “DDD” defeats Wardley, he could expect a trilogy fight, but fan interest may wane given how the first two fights went.

It all depends on whether Usyk retains his three titles. Although the fight for the WBC belt with Verhoeven is highly controversial, the IBF and WBA leagues have not been mentioned yet. The sanctioning authorities may well decide to declare a vacancy in their belts.

Tank Davis is eyeing a rematch with Isaac Cruz after a tough fight in 2021

Fighters like Raymond Muratalla, Abdullah Mason, William Zepeda and Floyd Schofield represent the direction many expected from Davis, making the return to Cruz a remarkable step, even if the first fight remains the one fans remember.

The fight is being discussed in the 140-pound weight class. Their first meeting took place at lightweight in December 2021 and ended in a unanimous decision for Davis after twelve rounds.

Cruz’s pressure forced Davis (30-1, 28 KO) in a cautious fight rather than the knockout victories that marked much of his career. Davis injured his left hand early in the fight and relied heavily on movement, defense and counters with his right hand while Cruz continued to press forward and raise the volume of his throws.

The judges scored the fight 115-113, 115-113 and 116-112 for Davis. Cruz’s pressure kept the contest close and led to a physical twelve-round battle that looked different than many of Davis’ other victories.

Cruz (26-2-1, 18 KO) continued to build his record after this fight, and his victories put him near the top of the division. His aggressive style and willingness to constantly push forward made it the first fight that fans still bring up when discussing Davis’ toughest fights.

Davis most recently fought to a twelve-round draw against Lamont Roach in March 2025 and has been inactive since that fight. A second fight with Cruz would mark a return to a fight that continues to attract attention whenever we analyze Davis’ career.

A novel element is the weight class. Discussions about a rematch point to a fight at 140 pounds, rather than the lightweight limit where they first met.

Keyshawn Davis Claims He’s ‘Increasing Weight For Championship Fight’

Keyshawn Davis says he is ‘moving up in weight for championship fight’

Keyshawn Davis has been linked to a move up to welterweight in recent weeks, and it appears “The Businessman” will be making the jump soon, with the “championship fight” date reportedly set at 147 pounds.

Davis was stripped of his WBO lightweight title when he missed weight last June for his scheduled first defense against Edwin De Los Santos. He then moved up to super lightweight and knocked out Jamaine Ortiz in the final round of their fight on the Teofimo Lopez vs. card. Shakur Stevenson.

In the wake of that victory, the Norfolk-born superstar called for a fight against current WBO welterweight world champion Devin Haney, who originally agreed to the fight before negotiations stalled.

As a result, it looked like Davis might stay at 140 pounds, but in… interview for FightHubThe 27-year-old revealed that he has a date for a “championship fight” in preparation for his 147-pound debut.

“I definitely got a response [from the people I called out] and I definitely have a date too. I’m telling you all this now and I’ll definitely be back sooner than you all think. That’s why you saw me playing politics in the gym.

“It’s political, but I’m really staying pointed. Don’t fuck up, I’m staying astute. There’s something coming.”

“I think I’m moving up [to 147lbs]. Yes, [for a championship fight]”

Haney seemed to be close to securing a unification fight with WBA champion Rolando Romero Lewis Crocker (IBF) postponed his match with Liam Paro due to injuryand Ryan Garcia (WBC) is looking elsewhere. It’s unclear where Davis fits.
