Shane Mosley says Canelo Alvarez is “too big” for Terence Crawford, and he’s not going to do well in this battle because he’s not a car. If he could move, he would have a better chance of winning. The legs are gone for 37-year-old Crawford (41-0, 31 COs). September 13 will be a bad day for Crawford.
Mosley: Canelo’s great advantage
“I think Canelo is too big for Crawford. If Crawford was like the rest of them, he might have a good chance with Canelo, ”Shane Mosley said Fighting type When asked about Terence Crawford’s chances against Canelo Alvarez.
Crawford is going to be surprised when he comes into the ring with Canelo and starts to get through him. He is bigger and stronger than the last opponent of Crawford, Israil Madrimov. Once Crawford has started hitting through Canelo, he will understand that it is a very different kind of fighter than his last game against Madrimov. This is going to be more difficult for him because of his lack of size and advanced age.
“I think that because he is that Crawford is a fighter is going to be a problem. He is a fighter. He wants to fight. He can move a little, but his heart is not moving. So he will have to sit there and fight with Canelo, ‘says Mosley.
Crawford’s outdated legs, mobility
Crawford grew so old, and his inactivity harmed his mobility. He has been fighting only one a year since 2020. It helped take away his mobility. He became comfortable as soon as he started earning millions, and he did the minimum to stay active. If a fighter becomes ringing after becoming a millionaire, that’s what you get. Crawford lives like a king, rich and rarely fighting. Now it is about to catch up against ‘The Face of Boxing’ on September 13.
“If you sit there and fight with Canelo, he’s so much bigger than you. I don’t know. But everyone thinks Crawford is a wonderful boxer, ‘says Mosley. “He’s it, He’s what He is. He is a big fighter. I think he was a big fighter at 140 and 147, and it seems he is just fine in 154. Now, we’re going to 168. ‘
Turki’s battle rules impact
Even if Crawford initially planned to move around a lot to defeat Canelo, he probably changed his mind after hearing Turki Alalshikh’s Richtien that he didn’t want Tom and Jerry-type fights. Crawford doesn’t want to upset Turki. So, he’s going to fight more aggressively than he would have otherwise, which can work badly for him.
“He’s a master now. He was in the ring with everyone, ‘Mosley said when asked how much better Canelo had received since he fought against him in 2012. From light heavyweight to 154, ‘says Mosley.
Canelo has all kinds of experience during his 19 -year career, and he faces much better opposition than Crawford. There is no comparison. The only two good opponents who fought Crawford during his 17 -year career are Errol Spence Jr. And Israil Madrimov. Spence was not the same fighter as he was in front of the car accident, and Crawford utilized it.
