Crawford will have the largest reach advantage against Madrimov that he has had against any opponent since he was still fighting at 140. He faced several dudes at 135 with a longer reach than Madrimov.
I don't think Madrimov will be able to get to Crawford. He's going to walk into something big.
Nah. Crawford is a gym junkie and a boxing perfectionist. His best case scenario is he should win within 10 by cutting him down on body part at a time. His worse case scenario he wins by wide UD in a clinic.
Madrimov seems to default to the old Viking "berserker" style fairly often, flinging arms all over the place and doing zero for defense. If you're fighting people who don't know what they're doing, that can be bewildering and intimidating. Think Ricardo Mayorga with longer arms and no cigarettes.
But if you're fighting a guy who does know what he's doing, you stand a good chance of getting your bell rung. Of course, there's always the chance that Madrimov may throw a lucky shot. Hey, it's boxing. But from what I have seen, Madrimov should not be a bridge too far for Crawford.
