Shane Mosley: Canelo Alvarez is too big for Terrence Crawford, mobility lost at 37
Shane Mosley says Canelo Alvarez is “too big” for Terrence Crawford, and he’s not going to do well in this fight as he’s not a mover. If he can move, he’s likely to win. His legs have disappeared to 37-year-old Crawford (41-0, 31 Kos). September 13th is a bad day for Crawford.
Mosley: The advantages of Canelo size
“I think Canelo is too big for Crawford.. If Crawford was a mover like everyone else, he might have a good chance with Canelo,” Shane Mosley said. fighthype When asked about Terrence Crawford’s chances for Canelo Alvarez.
Crawford is surprised when he enters the ring with Canelo and begins to bump into him. He is bigger and stronger than Crawford’s final opponent, Isreil Madrimov. Once Crawford gets attacked by Canelo, he will realize that this is a rather different type of fighter jet from his last match against Madrimov. It will be difficult for him as he is lacking in size.
“I think Crawford is a fighter, and that’s going to be a problem. He’s a fighter. He wants to fight. He can move a little, but his heart isn’t moving.
Crawford’s aged legs, mobility
Crawford is very old and his inactivity hurts his mobility. He has only fought one a year since 2020. It helped to take away his mobility. He has become more comfortable after starting to make millions and he is doing his bare minimum to continue his activity. When a fighter becomes lazy after becoming a billionaire, this is what you get. Crawford lives like a king, is wealthy and rarely fights. Now, it’s going to catch up with the “Boxing Face” of September 13th.
“If you sit there and fight Canelo, he’s much bigger than you. I don’t know. But everyone thinks Crawford is a great boxer,” Mosley said. “He’s this, he’s that. He’s a great fighter. I think he was a great fighter with 140s and 147s. He seems to be good at 154s. Now we’re 168.”
The rules of the battle of Turki influence
Even if Crawford had planned to go through many moves to defeat Canelo first, he probably changed his mind after hearing the instructions of Torki Aralschuff that he didn’t want a Tom-Jerry-type fight involving a Jerry-type fight. Crawford doesn’t want to make Torki uncomfortable. So he’s going to fight more aggressively than he’d had otherwise, and that could work badly for him.
“He’s the master now. He was in the ring with everyone,” Mosley said when asked how good Canelo had gained since fighting him in 2012.
Canelo has all sorts of experiences in his 19-year career and faces much better opposition than Crawford. There is no comparison. The only two good opponents Crawford has fought in his 17-year career are Errol Spence Jr. and Islel Madrimov. Spence wasn’t the same fighter plane that he was a pre-crash of the car, and Crawford took advantage of it.
