Danny Garcia spent a while chatting with Combat Hype and touched on this fall’s showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford. In talking concerning the battle Garcia explains why he’s not sure if Crawford will be capable of deal with the ability of a stable 168 lb fighter when his personal energy didn’t appear to translate a lot at 154.
Garcia on Crawford’s possibilities to beat Canelo
“Simply me assessing Crawford’s final efficiency when he went as much as 154 in opposition to Madrimov, I really feel like his energy actually didn’t carry up that a lot to 154. So I really feel like 168 — that’s powerful. I imply, if he pulls this off you bought to place him up there like high three of all time. Meaning he’ll unify three divisions, all 4 belts in three completely different divisions, going up all them weight courses to beat Canelo. If he wins this battle you most likely obtained to place him high three of all time.
“However it’s going to be a steep, steep hill to climb. It’s going to be powerful. If he can do all of it reward to him however I believe will probably be an excessive amount of for him. That’s simply my private opinion.”
On those that have extra confidence in Crawford’s possibilities after seeing Canelo vs Scull
“That Scull dude is massive, like he’s an enormous 168 pounder. He seems like a 175 pounder in the event you ask me. In order that’s like a extra pure greater man. You’re speaking a few man (Crawford) that began his profession at 135 preventing at 168. That’s loopy.
“Pay attention, like I stated earlier than, if Crawford can pull this off he’s high three of all time, you may’t take that away from him. However like I stated earlier than, it’s going to be powerful. It’s going to be powerful if you begin getting hit with them bombs, you’re like ‘whoa.’”
