Edgar Berlanga in Crawford vs. CANELO: “Be himself” and struggle with confidence

Edgar Berlanga believes that Terence Crawford can defeat the Super Weight champion and the Super -Pes de Canelo Alvarez for “being himself” and fight with “confidence” on September 13. It cannot be intimidated by Canelo (63-2-2, 39 kos).

Crawford’s challenges at 168

The problem that will make it difficult to win Crawford (41-0, 31 ko) is the weight jump without trying to divide, age and inactivity of 168 pounds. It can be young for 38 years, but it is still an advanced age for a fighter. It is not sure of Crawford’s ability to handle the size and power of Canelo.

What Terence has happened to him is that he did not fight any elite fighter or level A until his party last year against Israil Madrimov. He was a level A fight, and Crawford almost lost with him. He took more punishment in this struggle than in no other during his career.

“You have to go and fight against him. Crawford has to go and do what to do,” said Edgar Berlanga a Fight Hub TV About what Terence Crawford has to do against Canelo Alvarez. “He has to go and be Crawford. He shows his IQ why he is an undisputed world champion and will come in with confidence. That’s all he is.”

Berlanga’s advice are perfect. Crawford cannot wake up for the time to share the ring with the legend, Canelo, and treat it as if he were an ordinary opponent. The error that Edgar made was that he showed Alvarez too much respect in the first 11 rounds. When he finally fought against his fight at Ronda 12, he was too far back and could not compensate for the lost ground.

Crawford Weight Salt Impact

“It’s a big difference in weight: a big weight jump. This could be a difference in the fight. It’s as if I were heavy weight. I will feel the power and the difference in size. It must be himself. If you lose, we will all know that it jumped two weight classes to be excellent. He is trying to be against a great fighter,” said Berlanga on Crawford.

This is the good thing Terence has gone through him. Although he loses to Canelo, he will not take the same flake from the fans as if beaten at 154 or 147. He literally has nothing to lose and everything to win in this fight. What will do a great career if it is defeated is Canelo. It has the size, power and advantage of experience. Therefore, it is supposed to win.
