Terence Crawford responded to the talk today that he is fat and uses false photos to hide his soft center before Saturday’s fight against Canelo Alvarez. In a video clip, Crawford (41-0, 31 CO’s) showed his fans that he was in shape for his superfight on September 13.
The energy that Crawford responds to his critics on social media indicates that he is not locked up for the fight on Saturday. He is too hyper-resistant to criticism.
What people do say now is Crawford (37) “Small” And still at 154 pounds, not a 168-pound warrior that he will have to be for him to have a chance to deprive the undisputed champion Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 COs) and capture Turki Alalshikh’s custom $ 188,491-ring magazine Mega-Belt.
To confront the ‘fat’ accusations
“They said it’s false. Come on now, our job, man,” Terence Crawford said social mediaAnd his physique shows to let his followers know that he is not fat around the midsection like recent photos on X -Show. “It’s just hard work. It’s nothing. ‘
He doesn’t look greater than 147
I must say, Crawford does look small in the video below, and can easily pass a welter weight. He does not look bigger than he was when he fought from 2018 to 2023 at 147. It’s not good for Terence, because Canelo is a full-fledged super-middle weight and looks like an angry bull in the ring.
Even if Crawford rehydrates 10 to 15 pounds, he will probably be much smaller in weight on Saturday night than the powerful Canelo. It seems that the weight reduction that Crawford has undergone over the past two weeks has also quickly taken away muscles. Its appearance is that of someone on an accident diet
This can happen to a fighter if they suddenly reduce calories to start a drastic weight of 20+ pounds. It is almost impossible to retain muscle if calories are limited over the past two weeks. You do not put the muscle back on overnight after making weight.
“If you put Canelo on his back foot, he is a completely different fighter. Yes, he can move a little, but he likes to come forward with the power, ‘says Tim Bradley on his channelAnd explain how Crawford can beat Canelo Alvarez.
The madness to move forward
‘Put Canelo on his back foot, Crawford. This is how you manage to do it. This is one aspect you need to do. I would advise you to do it as early as possible, because if you do, you will immediately get control of the judges, ‘says Bradley.
It sounds like a crazy plan Bradley has, and advises Crawford to go Straight into the teeth of Canelo’s offense Saturday night right out of the gates. It’s like feeding a lion by going directly there. I believe this is the worst thing a small, older, inactive and less experienced Crawford can do against a fresh Canelo. Going to the Mexican star from the first round sounds insane.
“They’re going to look at you. You are going to dictate the pace. You will respond to you and not respond to him, ‘Tim said with his advice to Crawford.
