Vergil Ortiz Jr. It predicts the victory of Unified Super Middle Wwweight Canelo Alvarez nad Teupers Crawford in the fight in September. He believes that 37 -year -old Crawford is “too compact”.
Weight vs. membership
He believes that it doesn’t matter that Crawford has gone to 180. Vergil says that gaining weight does not mean that it belongs to this weight. We saw it in the last fight of Crawford with the WBA medium scale champion Israil Madrimov.
Terenka approached the fight at the age of 154, but he did not have the same power he had in 147 in his previous fight with Errol Spence Jr. in 2023 or earlier a match with David Avaneyan.
“I think it is too compact. I know that he simply weighed 180. Taking weight and belonging to this weight are two different things,” said Vergil Ortiz Jr. Ring magazineSpeaking about the fact that Terenka Crawford is too compact to defeat Canelo Alvarez in 168.
Crawford will be burdened, but it will still be naturally smaller than Canelo. He will have good power, but he will have to load his shots to generate this power. It will not be like a Canelo, which can hit aptly.
“I would understand if he [Terence] I fought someone less caliber, but we’re talking about Canelo. This guy is good. He takes boxing for a long time. I think it will be a clear win. Crawford is hit. He does. He is hit like everyone else, said Vergil.
Crawford was achieved in his last fight with the former WBA Junior Master Israil Madrimov on August 3 last year. He almost lost this fight. Crawford loses if Madrimov is not sent in the last three rounds.
Crawford’s pride
“Sometimes it is hit quite spotless. If you stay spotless, it’s not good. It’s really not good, whoever you are. Canelo is rapid. It’s not like it’s snail-paced.
“Crawford is a proud guy. We saw how he stays there [in the pocket and exchange]. I don’t think he stayed there if he wants to win, but sometimes pride takes control. ‘Match.’ Sometimes you just have to fight. “
Crawford will try to follow the Mayweather and Bivol plan against Canelo. This means that he will move, hit, run and hold like the two of them. Crawford knows that if he wins the decision, he gets a rematch and earn even more money.
So he will try to fly Canelo to get a victory, and then make Turki offer him Gazillion dollars for a rematch. It will be lifeless, but what other options does Crawford have?
Serhii Bohachuk (25-2, 24 KO) returns this Saturday, May 17, directing the Hollywood Fight Nights Triple-Header at Commerce Casino in Los Angeles. The Ukrainian handle accepts Veteran Mykala Fox 6’4 “(25-4, 5 KO) in the ELIMINATOR Super Knirówka WBC, live stream on UFC Fight Pass (22:00 et / 19:00 PT / 3:00 AM UK).
Also on the card: Feather Wweight Omar Trinidad vs. Alexander Espinosis, and Mizuki Hiruta defends his WBA super flying belt weight against Carla Merino.
From Vegas to knock back to LA
Bohachuk enters this war with Vergil Ortiz Jr. In August last year, where he dropped Ortiz twice, but he was still trimmed with cards. He followed him setting Ishmael Davis in Riyjad and the decisive Brian Mendoza in Vegas. The guy destroyed his names, without orthiz – and still has 24 KO in 25 wins.
Fox? He is high, economical and recently fought for significance in 2022. He has the skills, the history of the origin of Tatusi’s coach and a solemn advantage-but little power. You need more than stab and good intentions when you are in a destructive ball like Bohachuk.
This fight is not happening because Fox is a threat. This is because Bohachuk needs a toasty -up before taking the world championship title.
Is Fox another KO on the book?
Look – Fox is skillful, defensive and awkward. But you can only run as long as a guy like Boachuk passes through you. If Fox can survive and frustrate Ukrainian, okay. But if he becomes greedy, he will look at the ceiling. Bohachuk doesn’t like to box. He likes to kill the rhythm and crush your ribs.
If Bohachuk wins – and let’s be true, he should – probably is the next in the title of the world champion. This concerns the creation of statements. Another knockout, other body and WBC can no longer avoid it.
If Fox annoys the script in some way? Welcome to the boxing Purgatory for Bohachuk.

Shakur Stevenson complained this week that Gervonta Davis was probably fighting with Jake Paul in the exhibition match. Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) says “disrespectful” For sport, if he faces Jake, not with him. He claims that he is “the best warrior in sport” and says that if Davis does not believe it, he must fight him to “prove”.
Stevenson is annoyed that Tank has rejected him many times, perceiving him as a monotonous, desperate warrior, looking for a payment. Tank says Shakur should fight “brother”, Keyshawn Davis. He thinks that Shakur’s brother is an excuse not to fight that he can lose to Keyshawn.
“They should. They still say that they will not fight with their brother.
Shakur SLMS TANK exhibition
“Man, the tank does not respect this sport if he decides to fight me,” said Shakur Stevenson WarriorResponding to news about Gervont Davis, potentially fighting with the exhibition against Jake Paul. “I am the best warrior in this sport. I told him. He called it. If he wants to call Cap and say that I am not who I say that I am, come, prove it.”
Why tank would “prove” if he does not think that Shakur is a “best warrior” in boxing. Stevenson rejected the undefeated talents Ernesto Mercado AND Herrera Core as worthy opponents. He said that he did not want to fight Cuban Jadier Herrera (17-0, 15 Kos): “They are still trying to direct me towards teenage children. I only want large names!” Stevenson then turned and fought with an electrician, Josh PadleyInstead. What does this tell you? He tells me that Stevenson plays him safely, trying to remain unbeaten long enough to get a gigantic payment day against the tank.
Shakur still says that he is “the best warrior in sport”, but he did not fight anyone during his career, who was different than Edwin de los Santos. He ran in front of him for 12 rounds. It was more “disregarding” than a reservoir potentially fighting a harmless exhibition match with Jake.
“I think it’s threatening for him and fight Lamont there,” said Shakur about Tank Davis and Lamont Roach, they agreed to the rematch on August 16. “I think Lamont is a hellish warrior. I see that left. It will be better on his game.”
Payment chase
Many people think that Stevenson is simply trying to break the fight against Tank Davis and is not interested in fighting anyone who avoided losing on this day of payment. That is why Shakur fought part -time boxer hours, Josh Padley and Artem Harutyunyan in the last two fights. He fought Floyd Schofield and Joe Cordina. Both are not close to the peak in lithe.
Many stores inform that Tank Davis-Mont Roach II is set to August 16 in Vegas. The 12-round fight, which will undoubtedly be a salary event at the sight, will go down to the T-Mobile arena. After exceptionally and surprisingly close to the first fight, it ended in a draw in March, many insisted that Underdog Roach deserve to leave the ring with the featherlight title of Davis WBA in his possession. Although the battle was far too close for each decision to be considered a robbery, there were immediately ratings of query about 30 -year -old undefeated Davis after the match.
Admittedly, Davis 30-0-1 is willing to face Roach for the second time without many bureaucratic nonsense. Davis is often accused of not questioning himself in the ring. This accusation is now calling empty, at least in this case. Because Roach gave a featherlight leaf everything that he could do from last winter. “Roach turned out to be able to make Davis energy shots,” I wrote then. “What’s more, he was able to land independently, often at a frequency.” For a man who talked in retirement, Roach found a lot of work on his gloves that night in Vegas.
It will be fascinating to see how the rematch takes place. The source of Davis’s success are the rapid hands of Baltimore natives and explosive power. Roach showed that he has several rapid hands of his last match … And Davis’s power arrows were not a problem. Not this pervs looked perfect. It was a very close fight again. In order for one to be distinguished from the other in the rematch, you will have to introduce corrections.
There is no doubt that this is a great news for Roach, which could easily be pushed to the side after nervously the apple stroller, which was the program of Gervont Davis. Now he not only has the opportunity to prove that the first fight was not a fuchs, but he has a second chance to beat one of the biggest boxing stars. Days Roacha being a unclear younger featherlight letter has long ended.
However, like Roach, Davis also has something to prove. A great performance against Roach in a rematch will allow Davis to repel the fight in March. However, the loss would prove catastrophic. Davis will be a lot of riding on this.
