Crawford's shredded to the gills. ATG status if he beats Canelo. It'd trump the Mayweather win of 2013.
If Canelo had beaten the 'old' 36yo Floyd he faced back then people would've instantly declared him the best fighter in the world and p4p#1. Therefore, Crawford deserves the SAME accolades if he defeats 35yo Canelo next week.
People forget that Bud turns 38 this month, and that he's essentially moving up three weight classes inside a year. He also has only had one fight @ 154 a year ago. Given these facts, if he beats Canelo, it will not only be greater than Mayweather's win over him, it will be a freaking miracle. And I'm not even a Canelo fan. Bud's newly-found muscles will weigh him down and feel like lead by the 4th or 5th round. His underdeveloped legs will struggle to nimbly move the extra weight, and fail to generate the power that he needs to keep Alvarez at bay. Crawford will lose this fight.
his arms are too bulky
arms starting to resemble a hypertrophy weight lifter rather than lean and mean as it should be for boxing
