Comments Thread For: Bradley: I'd Pick Crawford To Beat Canelo, Even at 168, He Has Ring Smarts Like Mayweather

[JakeTheBoxer]

At 154 I would have favoured Bud since Canelo drained himself there and struggled with the likes of Lara and Trout, but def not at 168 wich is Canelo best weight.

I would say a little different. Canelo was a true 154 guy than. But he didn`t like close very competitive fights at 154-160, so he decided to move up with the idea that bigger guys would also be easier to beat.

At 168 Floyd would not beat Canelo either. Canelo would just punch through him.

People should remember that Floyd beat Nelo AT 154...well 152 catchweight to be accurate...

Go back watching Bivol - Canelo. Dmitry was much bigger. Canelo looked like a small chubby guy.

1+1 = 2 at my house , your house and everybody else’s fughin house
That’s his fughin problem
But don’t say Bivol is a much bigger man cause don’t make no fughin sense
Bivol says he’ll make 168 easily
Real fughin big

Canelo made the same mistakes he made in the bivol fight. She showed that he barely changed. Bivol beat him with basic, solid fundamentals. Crawford has way more more tools than that. The only thing going against crawford is the weight jump. I don't think age is a factor as they are both around the same age, crawford being a just little older, but canelo has more wear and tear on his body.

Only a total buffoon or a mentally irregular would claim that there hasn’t been any improvement between the version of Canelo that fought Mayweather 11 years ago and the current one.

Know your boxing ret@rd. Canelo has barely changed and made the same mistakes that cost him. He crumbles when he is outboxed. Deal with it.

Man, do you understand Bivol is a light heavy, much bigger man than Canelo?

So? Canelo has ko'ed kovalev who is bigger, rangier and much taller.

Unlike Kovalev, Bivol was not a washed up drunk.

Canelo can`t beat healthy elite bigger guys. But he can beat all smaller guys, yes.

I would like to see how Crawford does against Tim at 154 first. I won`t be surprised if Tim knocks him out.

I don't know if Plant had some more skill and the conditioning of Floyd he wins that fight, Canelo is flat footed always was, at 168 he is bigger and punching harder but the moves and skills and flat feet are still the same. He hasn't fought another Mayweathyer, Plant and Bivol are movers one beat him the other nearly did, Floyds style and conditioning would beat him again.

First off... Bud doesn't RUN like mayweather & Canelo was 23 not in his prime when fought Floyd at a COWARD CATCHWEIGHT.... before open your mouth & say "well Floyd, wasn't in his Prime either"... 1) Crawford is about 37 & #1PFP but he has wear & tear... Floyd has NEVER been in wars so he has no wear & tear... remember, "Defensive genius"? Tim is just trying to say if a good black man beat him once another good black man will beat him again... try it chump

Floyd drained him & fought him at 23.... Canelo was not a complete fighter then
