    How Would You Have T-Bud Fight Alvarez?

    do as manny paq VS Cotto?

    Carpe Diem what’s the gameplan here?

    I think he lacks the temperament and discipline to safely outbox Alvarez like Floyd & Bivol

    both Lara and Trout won at least 5 rounds each. So someone with Bud skill level winning 7 to 8 is a possibility

    he will have to be selective about when he mixes it up. Mixing it up can be a liability against Alvarez

    He would need to follow Lara’s plan with a bit more activity, but it’s easier said than done. Crawford isn’t a sniper with the straight left hand like prime Lara was, Crawford will do his usual looping 1-2-1 and have success, but Canelo will be able to find him easier to hit than Lara. Styles make fights, Crawford has the ability to box on the outside(Postol fight) for a full 12 round fight, but Canelo has the better experience when it comes to fighting against that style and arguably has fought against 3 opponents in Lara, Bivol, and Floyd(no argument there)who have a more pure technical type of style than Crawford does.

      I scored Erislandy fight a draw

      Man oh man did he Uck himself

      I love pure boxers, but you don’t outright run from a superstar and expect to get rounds

      especially as a random guy from Cuba

        Jabs and straights I think he can pull 10 rounds in that Khan style that would pile up the rounds before he start to touch Crawford

          Lara , trout and floyd fought a lesser version of canelo, floyd did great, but trout was knockdown hard and lara ended up with a broken face with only one punch from canelo. They all fought around their weght class, if canelo lands a similar punch on crawford then night night .. crawford is way undersized and not as crafty as lara. He is going down hard...i dont see how he makes it to the end...
