De la Hoya criticizes Canelo-Crawford’s promotional gimmicks, demanding real war

Oscar de la hoya trashed Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford during his clap back Thursday session this week and criticize them for their “Ridiculous promotion” of their September 13 match.

Canelo’s push: “No reality”

De la Hoya thought Canelo’s Shove of Crawford seems written, and an example of false drama without reality. He felt it was staged, a choreographed move planned in advance.

“The ridiculous promotion for Canelo-Crawford has given me a lot of ammunition. Let’s take it back to last week with a photo of Canelo and Crawford who will eat dinner together,” Oscar de la Hoya said in his clap back Thursdays session about Social media. “They are best friends. They are friends like their family friends? ‘

Fans smoke about dinner photo

Many fans were set off by the photo that emerged from Crawford, Canelo and Turki Alalshikh who sat together during dinner, at a large table full of food. For some fans, it looked like a meeting to discuss how the press conferences and battles would unfold. They saw it as a coaching session.

“Can you imagine that Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier will eat together? No boxing fan wants to see two fighters eat dinner together. We want to see a real war about to happen. Not caviar and champagne, ‘says De la Hoya.

The dinner was a bad idea of ​​Canelo and Crawford, because it reinforced the perception among fans that their superfight is merely a money grab. In other words, it’s a Gimmick fight with no sports value. Crawford is allowed to jump on two weight classes and get an immediate title against Alvarez for his undisputed Super Middleweight Championship. There is nothing to sport on it. The battle is a mixture of exhibition, WWE and theater that acted poorly.

“Canelo, before fighting against the Undertaker, can you please fight against David Banavidez?” De la Hoya said and responded to Alvarez and said during the press conference that he could fight on WWE. “Here’s the moment the screenplay told them to push each other. Come on, is someone else who doesn’t buy this drama? Crawford, if you want to make Canelo crazy, just tell the truth about him and his infected meat. ‘

Crawford’s act looked ‘beforehand planned’

Many fans thought Canelo’s Shove of Crawford looks staged. What looked even more artificial was the way Crawford approached him. He looked like an actor who counts steps during rehearsal, Walk to his stage position to start recording his memorized lines.

Canelo will not fight against David Banavidez because the chances are that he would be knocked out or embarrassed in a one -sided loss. If Alvarez thinks he could beat ‘the Mexican monster’, he would have fought years ago to keep him closed.
