Too fast, too fast?

Crawford ate the way up to 168 because he quickly put on weight since the last fight in August. It doesn’t look toned anymore, and you can say that it is fed power. Crawford just looks like a typical fighter who has was on his food bagExcessive grazing, thinking it can turn into super medium weight by eating alone.

He says Crawford will reduce to 168 to make weight and then rehydrate until the mid-170s to cause Canela (62-2-2-2, 39 ko) for his belts. That extra weight Crawford sets to fight will not turn it into another Gennadiy Golovkin powerful. It will not be what he was never thoughtful to be. It would be overweight and very slow.

Crawford will lead 175 for the first time in his 17-year professional career in the fight, opposing the fight that has competed for many years. In other words, it will not end well for the soon 38-year-old Crawford. It will be slower, weaker and guess will be stronger than he has ever been hit before.

“Crawford has come from 154. He will skip 160 and start straight to 168,” said the trainer of the forces Rob Acosta in Fix The Crawford Terrence was collected from 154 to cause Canela Alvarez for his united titles in the September Super Middle Category. “Let’s say Crawford walks around 180. They will descend those 12 rounds to make it 168.”

Crawford’s decision not to stop at 160 to fight one of the best guys in that weight was a mistake. If he was against the idea of ​​seeing in 168 to soak his legs, at the very least, he should have stopped at 160 and fought against Janibek Aimkhanaly to get the feeling that he was facing a larger fighter with more power. Janibek is one of the biggest shots in the middle category, and Crawford would better prepare for the fight against Canel with 168. Did the Terrence be afraid that he would be exposed to medium weight?

Eat?

“He ate the way to 180. To understand that. Failed until 180, “said Acosta.” That’s the difference. So if you just eat, eat, eat, to harder, assuming, because you have saved the heavier guys, assuming you can perform at the highest level against type [Canelo] Who has been there repeatedly and is very comfortable in this weight and I get off with heavier weight. That’s a completely different animal. “

Crawford Sparing inexperienced, slow Lester Martinez is not the same as the fight against a killer like Canel. That Bud someone burned someone like Osleys IglesiasThis would be much better to prepare for Canela, but that guy would probably have repeatedly kicked Crawford at the camp. The last thing Crawford needs to come to fight Canel, which has been half -lit since weeks of sparring with Iglesias.

“For the last two weeks, very campsites have always been the most critical times, because then the dumbest things can go wrong,” ACosta said. “It is great to come from 154 to 168 in a certain time frame and perform as if you were at 140, 147 and 154. We already saw what happened when it crossed from 147 to 154. It was not a bad performance.

“Crawford recorded a few good shots. He took them well. What do you think will happen in 168? Canelo hit GGG, one of the hardest kicks in boxing. Will you tell me that Crawford will just go up and clean it? I don’t see it happening.

“What is he [Crawford] Going to Rehydrant? 175? You walk around with that weight. Let’s see what happens when you get there with a top competitor like Canel, “ACosta said.
