Comments Thread For: Facing Canelo Alvarez at 168 is a step too far for Terence Crawford, says trainer

[MONGOOSE66]

There's no doubt the sanctioning bodies are corrupt cops and anyone that can afford the protection views them as THEIR private security. Frankly I'm not sure if Turki Alalshikh is Freddy Heflin or Ray Donlan but anything is better then the corrupt status quo, but I digress.

As for Canelo vs. Crawford...Terrance Crawford is an unbeaten, unified champion that's the same size as Charlo with skills similar to Bivol and that makes him dangerous. Also true is that Canelo, and others like myself, believe that if Canelo can catch Crawford he can hurt him. The problem is that Canelo isn't 100% confident he can catch Crawford and a loss will put every carefully selected opponent under a microscope and Canelo can't afford that...and THAT is the ONLY reason the fight isn't happening. Like it or not, that's the unvarnished truth, it is what it is.

I'll even go out on a limb and predict that a massive offer is in the works and if I'm correct, Canelo will balk because he's not 100% certain and lacks the confidence to find out.

Only severe CASUALS think this fight is legit. They dont understand weight classes were invented for a damn good reason.
The reason why a guy like Crawford WONT fight a couple top 168 pounders like Benividas, Munguia, Plant or Berlanga is for OBVIOUS REASONS that casuals cant fathom.
Oh, by the way, Crawford COULDNT beat ANY of those men either. Wake up casual.

My bad, my answer was a little deep and that's my fault so I'll simplify. Little tinny Floyd.... absolutely b-i-t-c-h slapped the living shyt out of Canelo. Why? Because styles make fights but don't be confused, in boxing style DOES NOT reference their outfit or choice of music. I know that's confusing and your name calling indicates you're a little too young for Floyd but today you have Alexander Usyk. Alexander Usyk was a cruiser-weight that beat Joshua and the bigger, better boxer Tyson Fury. Why? Because his style of fighting was superior....and not his outfit, don't get the two confused.

If this is still too much just remember these few simple truths.

1. It takes money to make the fight and the right style to win.
2. If a fight doesn't happen it's either because the money isn't there or the style is too difficult to deal with. What prevents the fight is never because "he's a middle weight","I don't fight Mexicans", "hes on the other side of the street" or " He's easy money but I need 15 times more then I got in any of my last 5 fights"

That's it, I genuinely hope this helps.

Crawford is NO FLOYD. Floyd would of B-ch slapped Crawford EASILY at 140 & 147.
Crawford had a hard time in his last fight with a NOBODY. Also Floyd DIDN'T fight for Canelo’s middle weight titles. It was a CATCH WEIGHT fight.
Not saying Floyd would of lost but he sure didn't want to RISK loosing fighting at 154. OH, by the way, Mayweather tried to put a rehydration clause for that fight as well. Says something about Mayweathers mentality.
Your still a casual. Dont worry, one day your balls will get hair in them.

I know you're angry but I think you're really starting to get it because you made my point better then I did. Little Floyd was so small that he couldn't possibly make weight and still he was putting it to Canelo all night because he had the style and NOT size or strength. Canelo simply doesn't have the style to beat Floyd and probably never will.

For the record, if you're interested you can still catch the fight on youtube. It's a little hard to watch if you're a hardened Canelo fan but still, there is a lot going on there and it's all about style.

Peace brother

He can't even beat Plant, Ill wait till he faces atleas one of them. But he won't and will never get Canelo PAY DAY. He needs to fight Ennis and stop ducking. Mther***er can't even stop an Amateur at 154.
Canelo is not Turki servent like Crawford is.

Clenelo ducks everyone and always has and fights nobody for $90.00 His fights are a scam, always have been.

Benavidez beat Plant and got nowhere because Canelo is frightened of him. Little Floyd didn't beat anyone special and absolutely humiliated Canelo and I suspect that's REALLY what you're frighten of...and you should be. Canelo is also too frightened to take a career high pay so don't feel too bad, you're not alone.

Look on the bright side, there is a $90.00 Eubank PPV to look forward to , and so far Canelo has only ducked Benavidez, Morell and Crawford.
