CRAVFORD Courtes admits that it has a “difficult challenge” that goes to 168 to challenge Canelo Alvarez for its undisputed super medium weight championship 13. September. Bud Crawford (41-0, 31 KOS) was inactive for most of the last four years, it did not look good in the last fight against Irail Madrimov and he was on the wrong side 30, about 40 years.
Risk of grass class jumpers
Turki Alaleshikh believed enough in Crawford to fight Canel (63-2-2, 39 hp), but there is a good chance that this fight cannot deliver fireworks to hope. Crawford decided not to take division in weight class, and two divisions will be shifted after a 13 month to face Alvarez.
It would be a lot of disappointment if the struggle is bored with Crawford running around the ring, or if it is a complete mismatch like Alvarez’s fight against Jermell Charl. That’s why it’s a bad idea to throw a lot of money on a smaller fighter to move two or three classes of weight. There is a risk that it will not be a fun fight, especially when a smaller fighter refuses experience in that class weight.
Coach Abel Sanchez and former world champion with four Divisions Mikei Garcia are skeptical about Cravford’s victory. They both mentioned how much third third fights he looked bad against Irail Madrimov, winning the 12-round unanimous decision by the results 116-112, 115-113 and 115-113.
More accurate than these results were 115-113, even though they did not tell the whole story. It could have been pulling or victory for Madrim’s not to face much more popular fighter than myself. Crawford now jumps in 14 kilograms from 154 to 168, and yet without matching in class weight. Just he knows why he chose not to fight someone in 168 to get some experience.
