Is the fight of the Crawford from Canelo simply a “stupid trick” or a real heritage test?

Regis Prograis says that he does not see that Terenka Crawford won the victory in his battle “Fight of the Century” with Canelo Alvarez on September 13 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. First of all, Prograis thinks that Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) is too elderly. He will turn 38 in September and have not fought for a year.

Two -bars truck stroke

Regis says that a two -level truck leap that Crawford will do will be Kryptonit for him. Entering two weight divisions at the age of 38, without experience at the age of 168 and releasing a 13-month dismissal. Crawford has everything against him.

“He is not like that [a mover] And now it is getting elderly too. If Crawford can do it, it will be amazing, but I don’t see it, “said Regis Prograis Fight Hub tvAnticipating that Canelo Alvarez will be defeated by Crawford next month.

Last year, Crawford looked 37 on his fight with Israil Madrimov. He did not look like 28 years elderly, as some fans and fighters say. He showed his age in this fight, went outside and placed by Madrimov. What saved Crawford was the judges. He lost this fight in a real sense, but the judges won a wonderful score. On September 13, it is not realistic that Crawford will receive a second miracle.

“Canelo is gigantic, he is forceful. I hear he is [Crawford] I’m going to knock him out. Canelo was affected by Kovalev and GGG. These were gigantic blows. Erislanda Lara and Bivol. He was hit by real great punchers. I don’t think he won’t do anything, “said Prograis.

A matter of fighting a trick

The whole idea of Turki Alalshikha from the fact that Crawford moved two weight classes to challenge Canelo for his unquestioned 168 pounds championship, is bad. Turki should have made Crawford lead the mini-Gauntlet of two or three best 168 or 175 pounds to prove that he can go through this chance against Canelo. Fans would respect Canelo-Crawford’s fight much more than now. This would not be seen as a stupid trick.

“I think he [Crawford] He can catch him because it can be faster. I just don’t see it. How did he gain Canelo’s respect? This is Canelo. One of the best fighters in history. Canelo is as forceful as hell and can hit, “said Prograis.

Crawford’s arrows did not affect Israil Madrimov at the age of 154. He shouldn’t even try to hit Canelo, because there is no chance to win a shootout with Mexican Supergivia. It was not built to get to the trenches with Alvarez. Crawford should make a box and move all night, like Floyd Mayweather Jr. He did his victory over Canelo in 2012. Yes, it will be ugly, and the fans will be Boo, but his chances of winning will be greater.

“I think the weight will be too gigantic. He goes up two divisions. If you never fought. Madrimov, it was his [Crawford] The first fight at the age of 154 – said Prograis. “Madrimov hit him. He touched him a bit. This is Canelo. If he was another bigger guy, I would go with Crawford. It could be the best Mexican warrior in history. I know that everyone wants Crawford to win. They want Underdog to win. “

It doesn’t matter what fans want. If Crawford cannot raise his game from what we saw a year ago in his debut in 154 against Master WBA Junior Middle I am the weight of Israil Madrimov, he will lose. This is already a bad sign that he took great importance to the clash, hoping that the size added will allow him to overcome Alvarez.

Why the fight for tuning matter

Crawford should have two fights at 168, in which he was outside and he has survived. Fighting Oslyys Iglesias, AND Diego Pacheco It would be perfect tuning for a kennel. Even if he lost to one or both, he will probably receive a fight with Canelo.

Turks Alalshikh likes Crawford. So he gave him a break if he was decimated by Cuban Iglesias and did the same to him by Pakco. If it is a heritage in which Crawford really cares, and not on the day of payment, he would remain busy.

Fury vs Joshua Tickets Now Available for Highly Anticipated British Heavyweight Clash

"Fury vs Joshua Tickets Now Available for Highly Anticipated British Heavyweight Clash"

World Boxing News has found tickets for Tyson Fury’s long-awaited showdown with Anthony Joshua already being offered online despite no official confirmation that Britain’s biggest heavyweight fight has been signed.

Multiple ticket websites are advertising seats for the proposed contest, one complete with seating plans, pricing and availability, despite no official announcement from either fighter or their promoters.

The listingsfor a November 21 clash at Wembley Stadium have fuelled speculation that Fury and Joshua are finally on course to meet after both returned to winning ways this month.

Fury stopped Mariusz Wach in Thailand before Joshua recovered from two first-round knockdowns to halt Kristian Prenga in Saudi Arabia.

Ticket Listings Raise Questions

One ticket marketplace is already claiming to be selling secondary seats, while another company is taking registrations despite acknowledging that key details are still to be confirmed.

The sale has naturally sparked excitement among fans desperate to see Britain’s biggest heavyweight rivalry finally settled after years of failed negotiations, retirement announcements and missed opportunities.

However, none of the major parties involved in the negotiations have officially confirmed the contest.

Still Plenty to Be Decided

How tickets can be on sale for a fight that isn’t even confirmed is anyone’s guess. While some websites are already advertising Fury vs. Joshua seats, there’s no guarantee any of the details prove accurate until the fight is officially announced.

The proposed staging also raises questions for one obvious reason: the British weather. Holding the biggest fight in UK boxing outdoors at that time of year would be a significant gamble given how unpredictable conditions can be.

Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn proved a major late-autumn event can work when they fought at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last year. However, Fury vs. Joshua is on another level commercially, and risking Britain’s biggest heavyweight showdown in freezing temperatures or heavy rain would be a bold call.

If the fight does happen on British soil during that period, the safest option would surely be a stadium with a roof. That immediately brings Cardiff’s Principality Stadium into the conversation, offering organisers protection from the elements without taking the event away from British fans.

Even then, there remains a strong belief that the powers behind the event would still prefer the United States.

For now, the appearance of tickets is simply the latest twist in a rivalry that has frustrated British boxing fans for years.

Until Fury, Joshua and the promoters officially announce the fight, supporters should treat any ticket listings as speculative, no matter how convincing they appear.

Heavyweight Shocks Again: Tyson Fury Left Bloodied and Knocked Out Cold

"Heavyweight Shocks Again: Tyson Fury Left Bloodied and Knocked Out Cold"

Otto Wallin, the heavyweight who left Tyson Fury covered in blood and was later stopped by Anthony Joshua, suffered another crushing setback when Vladyslav Sirenko knocked him out cold in the final round of their Zuffa Boxing clash in New York.

Wallin was trailing on all three scorecards before Sirenko landed a devastating right hand followed by a left hook in the closing seconds of the tenth and final round.

The Swedish southpaw crashed to the canvas and remained down long enough for a stretcher to be brought into the ring, although he later sat up and responded to medical staff.

From Tyson Fury Scare To Another Knockout

Wallin’s career has become one of the heavyweight division’s biggest “what if” stories.

In 2019, he came within touching distance of ending Tyson Fury’s unbeaten record after opening a horrific cut above the Briton’s right eye that required 47 stitches. Many believed the contest could have been stopped before Fury battled through to win on points.

Speaking exclusively to World Boxing News three years later, Wallin insisted the fight would have been waved off had the roles been reversed.

“I think the cuts that he had were very bad. He had 47 stitches after the fight. If I had those cuts, the doctors would have stopped the fight, for sure,” Wallin told WBN.

Despite that disappointment, Wallin rebuilt his career by defeating current WBA heavyweight champion Murat Gassiev before earning high-profile clashes with Joshua and Derek Chisora.

His defeat to Joshua ended in a fifth-round stoppage. This latest loss to Sirenko marks the second knockout defeat of Wallin’s career and leaves the 35-year-old facing the toughest questions yet over his future.

Zuffa Boxing

Vladyslav Sirenko Scores Career-Best Win

For Sirenko, the victory represented the biggest win of his professional career.

The Ukrainian improved to 23-1 with 20 knockouts by stopping one of the heavyweight division’s most respected contenders after bouncing back from last year’s defeat to Solomon Dacres.

Wallin once looked destined for another world title opportunity after pushing Fury to the brink and defeating future WBA heavyweight champion Murat Gassiev.

Two knockout defeats later, that dream looks further away than ever.

Terence Crawford Declares One Current Fighter Unbeatable: He Will Take Over

Terence Crawford Declares One Current Fighter Unbeatable: "He Will Take Over"

Terence Crawford believes one man will follow in his footsteps and retire as an unbeaten world champion, essentially becoming a generational great in the process.

‘Bud’ became not only a world champion but a three-division undisputed king, ending his career with a legacy-defining unanimous decision triumph over Canelo Alvarez.

Even before that, Crawford was considered an elite pound-for-pound operator for over a decade, with many believing his most complete performance came against Errol Spence Jr in 2023.

But while the American is perhaps in a class of his own, he nonetheless believes that four-division world champion Shakur Stevenson can achieve a similar degree of success.

The 29-year-old claimed a career-best victory in January, losing just one round as he dethroned Teofimo Lopez with a masterful unanimous decision victory.

Having now signed with Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing, though, it remains to be seen whether he defends his WBO super-lightweight title or pursues opportunities elsewhere.

Either way, Crawford has told Fight Hub TV that Stevenson has the mental and physical attributes to remain unbeaten at the highest level.

“I think Shakur [will take over]for sure, Shakur hands down. I think, given the opportunity, he’s going to show the world that he’s the best. His mental, his defense [sets him apart]takes his craft serious. He’s the type of the fighter that you gotta pull out the gym. [Is he beatable?] Not at all. Everybody [is] beatable, but I don’t see nobody beating him.”

Since inking a promotional deal with Zuffa, Stevenson has named Devin Haney and Gervonta Davis as two potential opponents who would cement his greatness.

The slick southpaw could therefore compete anywhere between lightweight and 147lbs, depending on which division offers the most realistic opportunities.
