Crawford a clear winner, got it spot on tactically.

My money was on crawford if you watch last how ever many fights of canelo fights he just tries to load up on single shots and crawford to good for that but fair play he's just got 150mil compared to crawfords 10 think crawford took the 10 as he will take rematch for the massive purse then retire

I must have watched another fight, I woke up this morning and it was the 6th, played it from the start with the volume on very low. The commentary set the narrative of that fight, I mean how the f**k did they give Crawford the first two rounds, especially the first, he only landed one punch of note whilst Canelo landed several including effective body shots.

I dont think they can be any gripes about result in the fight to be fair agree not much first round but overall crawford definitely won large majority of the rounds he just put more work out landed more shots I cudnt ever see a knock out coming from this fight

When they score the first two rounds to Bud when Canelo clearly won them then it's fair to ask the question, are we being led down the garden path by Kellerman and Ward?

I recall at the end of the first round  they showed one replay and that was the single shot Bud landed, not one playback of any of Canelo's several shots.  I lost interest in the middle rounds but I got the picture that Canelo was keeping up with the bodywork and single well timed shots whilst Bud landed eye catching shots in combinations. It was a poor fight and neither fighter looked particularly great. I must have missed this masterclass from Crawford.

No 1 said master class said crawford definitely won majority of the rounds not all majority with him putting more shots out like I said they was never goin to be a knock out but crawford fought his fight to win by not givin canelo time to set for that many big shots to land and more combinations and canelo slowed down alot over past few years I'm a canelo fan think a prime canelo maybe different story who knows all I'm sayin [BANNED TEXT] man won on the night just my views everyone is entitled to there own

It was a close fight for me, but as I said, when they rob Canelo of the first two rounds that he clearly won, with the commentary and director influencing things then I think that they were trying to set the narrative of the fight. Canelo would have always struggled to look good against Crawford, it takes more than pot shotting to stamp your authority on a great boxer who has the speed advantage. Canelo basically doesn't have a jab, inexcusable really, poor fight for me though.

Yea with 2 boxers of that class was never goin to be a slug fest I thought crawfords movement was goin to always be a problem you can't knock out something you can't hit and knew crawford would pot shot him with few combo's but never go for the knock out but hat off to him to go up all them division's undefeated why take the punishment if you don't have too 

[Seagull 909]

Canelo has always struggled with boxers, he's got heavy feet, no jab and is power hungry. There's one thing for sure, I'm glad I didn't stay up for the thing, but my bodyclock always wakes me up when there's a big fight on. Lol
