    We’ll see… Crawford certainly won’t become undisputed champion by running so I DON’T think that’s the game plan (think William Scull). Instead, I expect him to mix it up plus don’t forget that he’s a strong wrestler and combined with his switch-hitting abilities will make him difficult to tag.

        Crawford had an OFF night against Madrimov (even though he still won) because of Madrimov’s unpredictable and elite footwork. However, Canelo is much more stationary and easier to hit.

          Bud does appear to be supremely confident in himself. But what does that really mean? He’s a great fighter who’s known nothing but success. Crawford is a true champion, and champions always think that way. He’s about to step in the ring with another champion — a true champion who’s naturally bigger and stronger. The problem with being supremely confident is that coming down off it can be devastating. We’ll see in a few hours if Crawford is justified.
          Agreed but Crawford’s level of self-assuredness is pretty unique…especially for a guy taking his first fight in a weight class 2 divisions higher against a future HoF.

            Bivol's Cousin Madrimov connecting on TBud with 3 straights in a row forever etched in memory

            TBud is neither as defensively savvy as Floyd nor Bivol

            Saul is good enough to land 1 to 2 hard rights per round
            Disagree as I think he looks supremely confident. However, the only question mark for me is his CHIN. Especially in a much higher weight class considering that Gamboa made him do the stanky leg and Kava dropped him.

              Saul has never stood there and taken two flush lead uppers in a row

              Madrimov did

                Lol Canelo’s already been WHOOPED twice by Mayweather and Bivol (and really GGG) so obviously wasn’t that difficult to tag.

                  What is your point? That AlvaRoid is more mobile than Madrimov? Tonight, you’re gonna cry

                    we soon find out

                    I am of the school that TBud chin was bolstered by his big weight cuts

                    this fighter was dropped by a random euroid’s overhand at i believe 147

                      no you trolliterate

                      the point is Alvaroid is better defensively than Madrimov

                      I take it you been watching boxing long enough to know defense consists of more than just mobile moving around the ring

                      Saul is a Slique White Chocolate

                      the closest you’ll get to a White James Toney

                      Ranking defense Floyd > Pernell > James > Bivol > Saul > TBud > Naoya
