Every time Diaz drops an F bomb in the corner, you gotta take a shot…

What does Madrimov have that Crawford HASN'T seen?

Madrimov will get cought with his Hands down like the rest of the Uzbekistans. They still have that amature style. Bad habits are hard to change when you're old and have been doing it all their life. Look at Bek the Bully and Ergachev.

You can't make a mistake with Crawford.

Most people are confident BEFORE they step in the ring with Crawford.

What else is his trainer going to say?
"Man, we're so freaking nervous right now. I don't know if Iz can pull it off, but we're going to do our best."

Crawford dismantles him with EASE…too slow, telegraphs his punches and lacks top level experience.

This will be another demolition job like Spence.

The only question is what round Madrimov gets stopped in, i think his corner will pull him out between 8/9

Some dumb comments in here as usual lol. Crawford won’t stop this kid and Madrimov will win at least a few rounds. People saying bud will knock him out easily are mistaken and underestimating madrimov

That's a good shout but it could be over even before then. Madrimov fights EXACTLY the same way as Spence i.e. hunts his opponent down and lets his hands go but is much slower, less skilled and telegraphs his punches. He also has zero head movement. Therefore, Crawford will see him coming a mile off and just take him apart like Spence.

The only question mark for me is whether the Uzbek has a CHIN which could see him survive all 12 rounds.

Also, although he looked good against Kurbanov, he was effectively fighting a punchbag which gave him NOTHING to worry about whereas Crawford's stiff jab and fast counter-punching will put him on notice from round 1.

What if you overestimating Madrimov? The Kid has beaten no one. He doesn't have the Pro Level experience and there is nothing special about his Skills, he is no Loma. Speed is normal, power is decent, nothing other than being able to switch stance which Crawford can beat Both Stances. Easily beat South Paw Spence and finish Orthodox Porter, Khan, and Brook to name a few. Crawford's timing and accuracy will make the difference.
