Did Canelo lose his lead? Ryan Garcia says Alvarez does not have the intensity of his prime

Ryan Garcia says Canelo Alvarez does not have the ‘energy and intensity’ he once had when younger. He believes he lost that part of his game and did not fight at the level he did when he knocked Caleb plant in 2021.

Garcia still chooses Canelo (63-2-2, 39 COs) to defeat Terence Crawford (41-0, 31 COs) this Saturday night on September 13. In an interview in Cigar Talk, Ryan said that Crawford’s shots do not have an effect on Canelo, which will run through them and continue.

Alvarez’s reduced energy

“Does he have the same energy and intensity he had earlier when he was younger, or even when he fought Caleb plant. It was his last wonderful performance. Is he going to have the second and third attempt? ‘ said Ryan Garcia to ring magazine X.

Ryan may be too young to remember how Alvarez looked like earlier in his career between 2005 and 2016. But even at the time, he had endurance and intensity issues. Canelo only fought in Spurts and would take out in the second half of his fights.

This is a problem that was there from the beginning, but Garcia may not have followed the career of Canelo, because he was only 7 years old when he first started fighting in 2005.

Canelo’s co -power is not limited

Canelo may not have the same energy, but its power still looks as good as ever. As far as I can know, there is no decrease in his punching power at all. The shots he dropped on Jaime Munguia and Edgar Berlanga in 2024 are likely to knock Crawford out because he has not yet been hit.

Crawford had problems with the bumps that Israil Madrimov beat him in 2024, and he did not load. Madrimov just reaches out with a quick, cropped right hands that repeatedly clapped Crawford’s head.

Crawford, 37, put pressure on him to entertain, as it was the idea of ​​Turki Alalshikh to use him as Canelo’s opponent on more action-oriented fighters from the weight classes of 168 and 175, which are more proven entertainers. Indeed, Christian Mbilli, who is fighting on the bottom map, would have been a better fit for an exciting battle to impress the Great Netflix audience.
