David Benavidez doubts the transfer of Crawford to 168 pounds for Canelo’s struggle: “Weight classes for a reason”

David Benavidez says he does not like the idea of Terence Crawford, who advanced three classes of weight to challenge Canelo Alvarez for his super indisputable average weight championship on September 13. Benavidez claims that there are “weight classes for a reason” and believes that it could be too much for Crawford (41-0, 31 kos).

Canelo-Crawford: Gold Parachute Fighting

The $ 100 million that Crawford receives for the fight means that it can be comfortably withdrawn with their golden parachuteNo matter how much I lose. Is still receiving the day of payment. Is an absurd amount, given the poor one who is his resume

“I don’t like just because Terence Crawford reaches three classes,” said David Benavidez in Ring Magazine canal About his thoughts on Canelo Alvarez defending his super indisputable half -weight championship against Terence Crawford in September.

Benavidez makes a good point. Crawford is essentially moving three classes of weight to challenge Canelo in 168. He does so without adjusting to acclimatia, which is a neglected thing for him.

There is also the inactivity at stake for Bud Crawford. There is a dismissal for a year and it is a long time for any fighter to be inactive before having a champion at the elite level.

Benavidez doubts about the 168 -pound movement of Crawford

“I do not mean that he (Crawford) does not have the ability to do -he is evil. Obviously he does it. He is really technically sounding and he is a great fighter. Sometimes three weight classes are different,” said Benavidez about Terence that has passed too far with his move until 168.

Canelo-Crawford doesn’t even look like a real struggle. It is more than a golden parachute, a final paid day for the 38-year-old Crawford-to-resorts before retiring. He showed that he lacks talent or desire to swim with sharks in 154. Thus he will not return to this division for a minor payment day to be demolished by younger fighters.

Weight classes for a reason

“It’s as if I got up and try to fight Anthony Joshua or” Gypsy King “(Tyson Fury for heavy weight). I think I could win if I am not successful but if I am successful, you worry.

Crawford has already shown that he had reached his upper limit when he moved to 154 and worked on a 12 -round unanimous decision on the WBA Junior Middleweight champion, Israil Madrimov last August. Madrimov’s size and power were bothered in Crawford in this fight, and probably lost.

Terence won a favorable score, which saved his hiding, but fans saw what happened. It reached the point where he could no longer dominate as before. Madrimov’s size, power and youth were a nightmare for Crawford.

The immediate title of Crawford

Terence is now increasing two extra classes of weight and has been given an immediate title against Canelo without having to work for the opportunity. Turki Alshikh hooked him.
