Abel Sanchez predicts that Canelo Alvarez’s force will “affect” Terence Crawford in the sixth round

Coach Abel Sanchez says that the force of Canelo Alvarez “will make his weight” to Terence Crawford in the sixth round, giving rise to the Mexican superstar “Cruising” in the victory on September 13.

Sánchez believes that Crawford (41-0, 31 kos) will be slower due to the weight he has packaged, and Canelo will take advantage of his speed lack of speed by whipping his heavy shots.

Jumping the tunes was a mistake

“Terence is a great talent, but we have weight divisions for a reason. If Terence had struggled two or three boys to this weight to prepare for Canelo, I think it would be a better struggle,” said Abel Sanchez a According toNoting that the failure of Terence Crawford to get used to the Super Media division can cost him against Canelo Alvarez on September 13.

Abel’s comment on Crawford is making a mistake not to get some tune in the 168th is what many people say. He should have used the 13 months after his last struggle to squeeze in two or three adjustments to 168. Even if they were gentle opponents, Crawford still should have struggled. It is obvious because he did not. Crawford did not want to expose -seeing -struggling or potentially beaten.

Canelo’s power will be overwhelmed Crawford

“Canelo’s strength and size will affect Crawford in the middle of the struggle, and I think Canelo crosses a victory,” said Sánchez. “Terence is fighting now with a big truck. It is him (Canelo) that brings you with the size. Once you start hitting it (Crawford), it will take it.”

It will be a new experience for Crawford to be hit by Canelo, as it was not hit in its 154 debut against Israil Madrimov last year. Madrimov only played Crawford and did not put all his power on the shootings for fear of being counteracted. Canelo will hit Crawford as much as he can, and it will be a shock for him.

Terence’s weight gain causes problems

“If the wearing, Terence, putting the weight on it has been put, it may not be the fastest,” said Sánchez. “It may not be the strongest to this weight. He had difficulty with the 154 -pound champion (Israil Madrimov) he beat. It is difficult to believe that Crawford could hurt him.”

Nebraska Native Crawford can attract Canelo’s attention with his shots, but he will not be able to stay in his pocket to add an intense price. Making -Canello run over will be an unpleasant experience, especially if it is in the body. He will not want to allow Canelo to hit him in the liver or solar plexus for a long time without riding his bike.

Crawford’s lack of power

“Madrimov showed us that Crawford does not have this stroke. He will have to gather punches,” said Abel. “You can punch at 147 and 140, and they will be punctuated quickly.”

Even at 140, Crawford did not have a punch power. Had to worry about his opponents in this class of weight and the same to 147. Most of the knockout they obtained were in fights where he struck his opponents for many rounds before detaining them. The only stops he made Terence were against the faded British fighters, Amir Khan and Kell Brook.

“Against Canelo, they will be a little slower. So, Canelo will be able to see them. He will be able to hit him with a shot with which he hit Khan, but he will be able to touch him, once he touches it, it is a 12-round struggle. It is a 12-wheeled struggle where Canelo can only go out with him, and not afraid to hurt himself, he said.

Age and inactivity harm Crawford’s speed

We already see the loss of speed at Crawford with boxing and pad training. It is not as fast as he was in his last fight against Madrimov in 2024, and definitely not when he struggled at 147. It will soon be 38 on September 28, Crawford ages and its inactivity for the last five years since 2020 has worsened it.
