Too huge, too rapid?
Crawford ate his way until 168 because he quickly gained weight from the last fight in August. It no longer looks toned and you can say that he fed power. Crawford just looks like a typical warrior he has He was in a feed bagExcessively, thinking that it can transform into a super medium weight, eating alone.
He says that Crawford will decrease to 168 to earn weight, and then hydrate until the mid-1970s to challenge Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) for his belts. This additional weight that Crawford puts in a fight, will not transform it into another Gennadiy Golovkin In terms of energy. It will not be what he has never been designed. He would be a welterweight and very snail-paced.
Crawford will first conduct 175 in a fight in his 17-year professional career, fighting a warrior who has been competing for many years. In other words, it will not end well for the 38-year-old Crawford. It will be slower, weaker and became stronger than ever it has been hit.
“Crawford comes from 154. He will go 160 and move straight to 168,” said Rob Acosta’s coach Warrior About Terenka Crawford connects with 154 to challenge Canelo Alvarez for his unified titles in Super Middle weight in September. “Let’s say Crawford is about 180. These 12 rounds will go down to make 168”.
Crawford’s decision not to stop at 160 about the fight against one of the best guys in this weight class was a mistake. If he were against the idea of tuning in 168 to get my feet damp, at least he should stop at the age of 160 and fight Janibek Alimkhanuly to feel that he would face a greater warrior with greater power. Janibek is one of the biggest strokes in medium weight and would be better prepared to fight Canelo at the age of 168. Did Terenka be afraid that he would be revealed by an average weight?
Food?
“He ate until 180. Understand it. He did not work out until 180 – said Acosta. “It’s a difference. So if you’re going to eat, eat, eat, you are to greater weight, assuming that because you’ve burned the heavier guys, assuming that you can appear at the highest level against the guy [Canelo] which has been there many times and is very convenient in this weight and going down from more importance. It’s a completely different animal. “
The sparring sparring of the inexperienced, snail-paced Lester Martinez is not the same as the fight with the killer like Canelo. If Buda paired someone like that Oslyys IglesiasIt would be a much better preparation for Canelo, but this guy probably knocking Crawford in the camp. The last thing Crawford needs is to start fighting with Canelo in half a sparring with Iglesias.
“The last two weeks of a very camp is always the most vital time, because then the most stupidest things can go wrong,” said Acosta. “It is very arduous to come from 154 to 168 at a certain time and perform as if you had 140, 147 and 154. We saw what happened when it went from 147 to 154. It wasn’t a bad performance.
“Crawford scored a few good shots. What do you think will happen in 168? Canelo was touched by GGG, one of the most arduous boxing strokes. Do you want to tell me that Crawford will simply go up and tidy it? I don’t see how it happens.
“What is he [Crawford] Are you going to hydrate? 175? You walk after this weight. Let’s see what will happen when you enter there with the best competitor, such as Canelo, “Acosta said.
Terenka Crawford supported his friend, Keyshawn Davis, after he arrived at the amount of 4.3 overweight at 139.3 pounds for defending his lithe WBO belt against the pretender to the Edwin de los Santos ranking, on Saturday, June 7, in Norfolk in Virginia.
Miss intended weight?
The former world champion in four letters Crawford was nonchalant about Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KO) missing by such a wide margin, saying: “This is happening.” However, fans perceive this as Davis’s insidious strategy to gain an advantage and avoid a potentially changing career loss compared to immense punching Southpaw de los Santos (16-2, 14 KO).
They note that Keyshawn has not shown any signs of exhaustion or fatigue, which is a characteristic signal that he deliberately overlooked the weight to the game. People perceive Davis as “Bully weighing” Noticing that he seemed to weigh over 160 pounds in his last fight with the lithe champion WBO Denys Berinchyk on February 14. “
Proposed hydration limit
Some fans think it must be RThe eodency limit of six pounds for tomorrow morning to prevent Keyshawn 15 to 20 pounds and looking like a full average weight when it enters the ring. The hydration limit would make the fight a bit fair.

Crawford defends Miss Davis
“He says he has shifted the weight. Nobody knows his body. Time to get up,” said Crawford WarriorReacting to Keyshawn Davis is missing on Friday. “Many times people do not gain weight. This is happening.”
You must wonder how Crawford would feel if his opponent missed the weight of 4.5 pounds for their fight. Did he move his arms, behaving, as if it was only one of these things or would he shout a bloody murder? I saw Crawford complaining without interruption, pressing to enhance the salary or the hydration limit on the day of the fight.
“It probably has grown out of it. I am not sure how it goes as far as possible to become empty, but I will keep up,” said Abdullah Mason Warrior About the lack of Keyshawn weighing. “I’m still looking for grabbing this belt.”
Fresh look at weighing
To make Keyshawn look like physically rested and unlimited, it is a red flag for fans on social media, that it was intentional on his part. He did not even try to bring weight because he said that it was his last fight at 135. So, if this was his last fight, why, at hell, Keyshawn would be worried? Think about it.
What can you get thanks to weight when you know that this is your last fight in the division and you have to win? If you are a bang, who should fight for 147 or 154, why should you want to kill yourself to get distance on weight?
“First of all, tomorrow I care about Nakoscilia. Either way, I’m going for this belt. Perhaps. If he moves to 140, we’ll meet at 140,” said Mason about him and Keyshawn finally fighting in a lithe welterweight.
Everything that Mason has to do is win tomorrow evening against Nakathila, and he will fight for the free title WBO Lightweight Axt against No. 1 Sam Noakes. However, as Abdullah looked, he doesn’t speak lithe long. It seems that he will be forced to move to 140 in several fights.
“Boxing will determine who I am fighting when I get there. I think it’s boxing, he grows out of this weight class and he fights for 140,” said Mason. “So maybe I will meet him at the age of 140. This is boxing. This is happening. I still want to win this title, but it comes.”
I would not be so sure that I met Keyshawn at the age of 140 if I was a freemason because it may not happen. Although Davis looked in the last two fights, only 140 will be exhausted, because it is enough. It must be at least 147, and preferably 154. Apparently it will be based on the fight in a younger medium scale and try every trick in the book to keep your weight to avoid this division filled with sharks. This is where he should be if he was not a massive tyrant.
“I know my set of skills. I know what I can do when I enter this ring. When this bell rings, it is different. When I get in front of the opponent, and I feel that something has something, then my IQ goes up. My skill configuration goes up. I feel like every opponent who put in with me, I will be able to keep my own and turn to the end,” said Abdullah.
Keyshawn Davis is no longer the WBO Lightweight champion after he did not get a huge margin.
Davis (13-0, 9 KO) scaled 139.3 pounds while trying to make a specific division limit of 135 pounds, losing his championship.
The opponent Edwin de Los Santos (16-2, 14 KO) hit the sign and is the only boxer who can leave the arena with the belt.
President WBO, Gustavo Olivieri, explained the situation that stood after Friday’s weighing.
“As for the Featherlight WBO division, if the WBO master does not bring weight, the title is abandoned in the scale, regardless of whether the claimant brings weight.
“If the claimant wins, they become a fresh WBO champion. If the former champion, the title remains empty.
“The vacancy should be filled with two highest available pretenders in the division when he defines the championship committee.
“Currently, Noakes sits at number one and (Abdullah) Mason is number two.”
Re: WBO Lightweight Division
If Master WBO is not of importance, the title is abandoned on the scales, regardless of whether the claimant brings weight.
➡️ If the claimant wins, they become the fresh WBO master.
➡️ If the former master, the title remains empty.

Before the defeat of the scale, Davis was looking for an impressive victory in his home.
“I chose him because I know that he will come to create a great fight for fans who leave. And it will be a great fight, but he will not hear and fresh.
“He comes to fight and implements the performance because his last was rubbish.”
Perhaps by anticipating his title loss 24 hours earlier, Davis added: “I know who I am with or without. I am a businessman. I introduce great fights. I introduce great performances.”
De los Santos used his platform to explain his long absence in the ring.
“I had a health problem. I had a blood clot in my leg. Unfortunately, I had to be out of the ring because of this.
“This time the result will be different because I overcame death. And after defeating my death I know that there is nothing more.”
On Saturday, Abdullah Mason (18-0, 16 Kos), Jeremia Nakathila (26-4, 21 Kos) is fighting. Both fights will be broadcast live to ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ at 22:00 ET/19 PM entitled

Keon Davis and Troy Isley form the central part of the highest rank.
Keyshawn Davis is no longer the WBO Lightweight of the World champion. He lost the world championship title not in the ring, but on the scales. On Friday, when he considered his Saturday fight against Edwin de Los Santos, Davis tilted scales worth over 139 pounds – four plus pounds heavier than he was supposed to be in a slight fight for the title. For his part, de los Santos made the weight of body weight in a few ounces below the limit of 135 pounds. It is demanding to imagine what Davis’ excuses can be. Needless to say, Davis did not try to come back on a scale.
“I exceeded the weight,” said Davis. “I put this weight for over four years. I just extorted the weight. I tried. I got up tardy yesterday. I woke up early in the morning, trying to bear the weight. I just grew up, senior. Norfolk Davis, Virginia on the city arena.
How it changes. At the beginning of this year, Davis won the title of WBO World, stopping Denys Berinchyk in four. On the other hand, de los Santos was seen the fight against Shakur Stevenson in what turned out to be a brutally dull romance. Now it will be Davis, whose goal of mockery, while de los Santos becomes more sympathetic from two fighters. Unlike the defending master, De los Santos was able to earn a lot.
Although Davis said that he wanted to move to Munior Welter, it is complex to see how it works positive for Virginians. The victory will probably be perceived as which it brought an unfair advantage. What’s more, brutal win can be a rascal work. And if de los Santos took nervousness, Davis’s career will have at least a solemn hit. Davis is not expected to lose, which probably makes it not so mysterious. Why can you wonder if Davis’s weight problems only arise now?
