Could Crawford have beaten Kovalev?

[MulaKO]

Bruh.............
That claim has the stench of a million sarcasm bombs
Or someone trolling you

I used to say the only way Nelo would get the respect he deserves was to beat Usyk.
Then, MAYBE, he'd get the respect.

Who knew that all he had to do was switch resumes with Benny

When Benny retires, chances of him being a HOFer is what % ?
Better odds than Nelo no doubt

No trolling , just reality
His fans were claiming that he’d beat a heavyweight just because he beat a washed Kovi
Notice you’re still stuck upon Benny
Must have many sleepless nights

I honestly think that Terrence Crawford, seized a great opportunity against a version of Canelo Alvarez 'who fought like he was dead at the weight of 168 pounds. Crawford's win in my opinion was highly influenced by the timing of the fight, and the fact that Alvarez is done at the weight. Crawford won due to his superior endurance levels, and ability to maintain his astuteness throughout the entire fight'.

Note: Canelo Alvarez historically has never had elite level endurance, but? He has always still be able to maintain a very high level of astuteness in all of his fights. But against Terrence Crawford, Alvarez was both fatigued and seemed to have less astuteness with his game compared to past fights. Canelo Alvarez fought like a fighter who was miles outside of his peak, and also dead at the weight of 168 pounds. And it was still a fairly competitive fight'.

That is why I don't regard Terrence Crawford's win over Canelo Alvarez as better than Floyd Mayweather Junior's win over Alvarez 'Mayweather fought a better version of Alvarez, and actually beat him in more impressive fashion, with considerably more ease'.

Terrence Crawford as a fighter, does not seem to have the attributes to fight at 175 pounds 'I don't think he has the brute strength or power. Skill for skill he may be better than most of the fighters in those divisions, but? From what I have seen in his performances, he would really struggle to negate the greater power and brute strength of fighters such as Sergey Kovalev who skill for skill was also a very capable fighter'.

Skill for skill, Andre Ward and Terrence Crawford are not far apart as fighters 'and Sergey Kovalev at least in the first fight was able to push Ward right to the line'.

To conclude: I will not entirely disregard Terrence Crawford, but? I think it is clear that he would struggle vs many top level 175 pound fighters. Stylistically in order for Crawford to win top level fights against fighters from those divisions, in my opinion he would need to have a big advantage over them in the areas of endurance and speed. If stylistically the match ups don't present that stylistic opportunity for Terrence Crawford then he will be beaten' etc.

You can't put every Nelo fan with a singular nut job
Maybe he was a hater going around making absurd comments.
In either case, not many people fed the obvious troll.

How can I not be stuck on Benny and his otherworldly resume (I know. The dreaded R word !)
Isn't........giggles.........everyone ?????

Big red should just retire

Big red should just retire

Who would haters aim their hatred at, doe ?
Then the dreaded R word won't be mentioned at all

[TheProudLunatic]

I still wonder what odds Vegas has on Benny being inducted, doe


With that "RESUME" of his.............

[Elastic Recoilz]

Yeah I think so, Kovalev never liked it to the body and Crawford frequently goes to body with combinations and counters. Also I seem to recall 50 year old Hopkins staggering Kovalev with a hook in round 12 of their fight. Prime Kovalev was a beast though, he had a fantastic jab that was like a backhand. Key thing is in a theoretical fight between the two Crawford would likely make the necessary adjustments mid rounds wheres Kovalev would be more one dimensional

Could Bud have beaten the Krusher?

Yes, he has been beaten several times before.

Brother I seen some nasty messages and to top it off , some useless excuses almost as close as Wilder fans
So , in all reality I’m pretty sure many of Canelo fans are suicidal and in denial of what just happened
Just another cherry pick gone wrong
Bivol comes to mind
Lmfao

We must traverse in vastly different paths here in NSB

Yep
Many thought Biv was a cherry
Mostly Nelo haters

What did it take for "fight fans" to take him seriously, I wonder...
Oh, right.
Beat a lame-o like Nelo ......
Whodathunkit !

Biv has a better chance at being a HOFer than Benny
T/F

It seems as if I have more to say about the Boogayman than his own fan(s) do
