"IVE SPARRED CANELO & CRAWFORD...IT'S A TALL TASK" Kyrone Davis on Crawford vs Canelo at 168 

Perfectly stated. Not impossible but improbable. Their are weight classes for a reason as “we” should have learned with Jermell Charlo.

This was an unbiased opinion. And he sparred a very recent version of Crawford who has been fully acclimated to 147Ibs

Great analysis from someone with real experience sparring both.

Well, how refreshing to hear a brother actually analyze a fight without bringing race into it, we need so much more of this. Both Crawford and Canelo are good people and let's let their skills pay the bills.

He said that with such concern!

This was a Fair assessment. Great work YSM 🥊

Thank you brother this what I been saying it’s a weight class for a reason

He's sparred both of them. That's legitimate analysis

Crawford is usually the bigger man, very rarely the smaller man, and he's fought very few punchers, especially ones his size. The hardest one he fought his size is Mean Machine and he got dropped. Mean Machine don't hit near as hard as Canelo and he ain't near his skill level either.

It's rare to listen to an unbiased black American.

Pro boxers say the exact same thing yet fans say Crawford beats Canelo at 68...i tell you no way. You're not just fighting a stronger bigger fighter but with high skill also. A 47 pounder will do nothing to a dude that got hit by light heavyweights and nothing happened. Canelo would simply walk through Bud cause Buds punches won't effect him. Its a nonsense fight. I say Bud V Boots and Canelo v Benavidez, stay in your weight classes. Move up 1 but not 2 and definitely not 3, you're asking for brain damage and a nice bag of money...health is more important.

Great work as always bro

My take is this... If Crawford is so 100% confident in jumping up to 168 and beating Canelo. Than jump up to 168 and fight JOHN RYDER first and prove to everyone that you can actually hang in that weight class . Canelo already said he's not interested in fighting Bud... Bud beating the shit out of Ryder will force Canelo into having no choice but to fight Bud.

Canelo would ko bud, he cant run, and he cant throw toe toe with canelo!

He said everything that needed to be said. Both great fighters but for some reason people keep acting like Canelo doesn't have skill. You can't just expect someone to acclimate to that kind of weight difference and win a fight against a generationally talented fighter. Time for this conversation to end

I bet it's Crawford fans on here saying, "He don't know what he talking about." Even though he's been in the ring with both guys. But Crawford needs to be made to fight Jaro. Ennis. Of course canelo fight makes more monies and in both fights he get the same results. Crawford skills is not where Jaron Ennis and canelo is at. It's just not. Yeah he beat a Spence that night and should be congratulated. But a fight with Boots is going to put things In perspective. So the casual fan will really no what talent look like.

I want it to happen just to see the collective butthurt that would happen when Canelo flatlines Bud. “Still ducking Benavidez, though!” “Go fight Bivol!” It would be glorious.

The look on his face and his tone of voice said it all. He was trying to offer some crumbs of comfort to Crawford fans, but ultimately he was saying it's a total no-brainer - Canelo smashes him to pieces easily.

Bud Crawford got my support! 💪🏾

Crawford walk around at one eighty same as boots if not bigger. Canelo TBC a real threat and that’s a problem

Everyone says I'll be hard to hurt Carnelo but the truth of the matter is its the punch you don't see coming is the one that hurts. Bud has become a master at setting those up. Not saying he knocks him out but he can hurt him. I know those right hands from Floyd hurt after awhile

he was with Crawford for the whole camp tbh , he’s hella modest . very humble . that’s why he took the Benavidez fight

Every time Bud moves up in weight his power translates to the next division 💯

Canelo fighting Bivol shows why we have weight classes.

Why doesbt anybody ask why Crawford doesnt defend against Ennis?

I still got my money on Crawford!! That nigga a different!

Canelo learned how to deal with quicker, slicker fighters after Floyd. He's way better at cutting off the ring and goes to the body and hits the shoulder's arms and hip to take away speed and mobility. Crawford doesn't have as good of defense nor is he as quick as Floyd either, he does have more power though but Canelo stood in front of both GGG and Kovalev so I doubt Crawford's power will be a problem for him

Crawford and his fanboys keep running their mouth Make it happen canelo😂 Ill bet 5k

See! He bigger!

If they fight iam getting paid

a big great guy always beats a small great guy

We want canelo vs David. We shouldn’t entertain bud vs canelo til bud at least have a couple fights at 154

Canelo would knock Crawford out clean. The size difference will be too much. Also Canelo has fought harder punchers from heavier weight divisions, so Crawfords punches will feel like little sings compared it guys like Kovalev, GGG, Bivol etc

Even though are very different I want to see that fight between power and skill , but I think canelo can hurt Crawford, is ok though, Crawford can have piece of a pie

I dont want to see Bud vs Canelo likewise when I didn't want to see Gart Russell Jr vs Terence. . . . .i wish these fighters would just stay in they own lane

Terence is a great fighter but he wont beat Canelo. They have weight classes for a reason

They mention skills and size. But rarely tell u its bout a mans mind and heart. Lol

Should have asked him about canelo and benavidez comparison

This seems to be the consensus. But with Crawford's crazy ass it probably makes him want to fight him even more with people saying that. My take is, fight Jermell at 154. Or Tim Tszyu. If he beats them in dramatic fashion then I'll entertain it more seriously.

Crawford is a world class wrestler that leaning on Crawford is. Nothing Crawford will keep canceling off balance while sticking him

Finally someone with brains knows if this fight took place Crawford is getting brain damage after boxing with canelo .that’s if he’s not planning to do what charlo did

If canelo weighed 168 and crawford weighed whatever he wants. I dont think it will be as hard as people think. The problem is the less heavy guy having to gain weight. It will slow him down. He's not accustomed to heavier body weight at an ELITE level. Make no mistake. A 147 pound crawford can hurt canelo. Speed, power, impact, technique, translates with relative weight. 168 and 147 are more similar than different. These two guys both walk around naturally near 180 pounds. Let them fight as is. When Mayweather fought Cotto (154 pound title), he said he only weighed 143 pounds. He stated his entire 147 career was fought at 143 pounds.

I hope Bud dont fight Spence.I hope he fights either Boots,Jermell,or Tzyu. And Canelo fights Benavidez next then fights Morrell or Berlanga.

So basically he's saying despite Bud's skills, size mattered in their spars. He knows how well he took Bud's shots and how well Bud took his. Bud's mega competitive according to Shakur, Keyshawn, Porter, and Adamas so you can presume Bud was in there trying.

With the exception of Bivol you'll notice after every Canelo fight he looks like he wasn't in one. The guy has the frame for 168, but even he lost a lil with the weight gain, as will Crawford & anyone else else who stretches their physical limit. One might gain a lil power, but they lose speed & reflex time. They have to shift to peekaboo, so their arms will get pounded more making them more cautious & reduce what ever success they had at counter punching. Crawford will be hit harder than ever before. Canelo can take a punch better than anyone I've ever seen & from hitters 5 weight classes above Crawfords natural weight. Crawford can cash in with much less risk. There's far more down side to this fight than up.

Its sparring. No way you can determine anything other then what was being worked on at that time .

Dude got outbox by madman and got whoop on by benavidez

If Canelo is so skilled, then why isn't he fighting Benavidez? This is why a Benavidez vs Canelo should be made, instead of a Crawford. If Canelo is too focused on a fighter who is much too small for him, then that mean Canelo is really ducking the much competitive Benavidez.

IF KYRONE SHUT IT DOWN DAVIS WOUKD HAVE HAS ANY POWER AGAINST BENAVIDEZ IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT STORY

Sparring and the real deal is different When Canelo lost 😡 to Bivol he saw exactly where he stood and decided he would only fight smaller weigh classes when if you remember he would fight Bivol then Beterbiev and we all know how that worked out 💪 and so he knows better to ever challenge Benevidez it will never happen too much to overcome height 62 190 @ fight time this is why he never rematched Bivol Crawford vs Canelo is 5050

The way i see it, if Bud moves up to 168lbs with zero tunes ups I give Bud a very little chance of beating Canelo. But if Bud moves up to 160 and beats a credible boxer like Janibek or Lara and then goes up to 168 and beats a guy like Plant or Ryder in a better fashion than Canelo, only then i say we have a fight a solid 50/50.

I'd never bet against crawdaddy

People don’t understand how weight works. Canelo is naturally a small guy but he built himself at 168 for years now. He fought at 175 and was in the ring with arguably 2 of the best in that weight class history. So asking Crawford to come up at 168 just like that with no tuneup, no time to get properly used to fighting at that weight is ridiculous

All the doubt is nothing but ⛽️ remember that!These same folks will be saying i knew bud could do it he got skillz etc.

Like he said he thinks 😂 as a matter of fact who is he😂

They said the same thing about Errol ... (too big)

Canelo will whooped tha canelo to big for him period

I'm quite sure that Crawford has already sized Canelo up. Crawford's hands are twice as big as Canelo's

After Crawford done with Canelo he gonna go face fury .

Looks like he’s cutting weight..does he have a fight

How would canelo win that’s the real question with single punches break down the fight bet he won’t put money on canelo

It is not Impossible after I heard that I know now bud can beat

Mayweather fought a young strong canelo Crawford should be just fine

if crawford is so confident he can beat canelo at 168 and his fans think he can knock canelo out ,they should make him fight jamie mungial or david benevidez there is no difference canelo is king in that division so bud can fight the smaller guys to get the shot at canelo right its not difficult ,i want him and benevidaz lets see wossop 😂😂😂

David -vs- Saul NOTHING ELSE!!!

These the same talking points they had when he fought Spence blablablabla TBC by late stoppage or unanimous decision

I believe Terence Crawford would knock out Canelo. Even Canelo Knows it.

I'm not going against my brother, TC all day FOH boy.

Only thing I can say about this is he going off Crawford that fought Porter he wasn’t in his peak form at 147. Now the camp when he was preparing for Spence is different you can see how in shape and how he was fully grown into 147. Looked like a 154 pounder when he fought Spence.

Sparring is not a real fight

Once again their doubting your level of greatness Bud.... They did the same thing to Floyd Time after Time... Time to show the world that you Bud Crawford will not be beat in YOUR Era

Terrance Crawford would kick ducknelos ass

people following the hype train because he beat a possibly damaged Spence They act like he is Floyd he isn't Floyd. Mayweather can fight a perfect fight you have seen him do it over and over again vs HOF level guys Bud gets mad and plays it by ear and gets clipped by bums I believe bud is levels better than Canelo and he can box better but Bud is a fighter who can box Floyd is a winner who just wins his gameplan and adjustments overrides his ego. Bud will get mad and start fighting at some point and that is troublesome. I agree not impossible though.

Canelo can’t make 154 that’s why charlo had to fight at 168. Boxers don’t jump up and weight like that.

Folks need to stop dreaming. Canelo will crush Crawford!

You can't really say about sparring because it's not a real fight Spence used to beat the shit out of floyd in sparring

You can't get an unbiased Latino to speak though

Crawford beats Canelo. If Crawford drags Canelo into the deep waters in the late rounds of that hypothetical matchup, hmmm? Not a place Canelo wants to be. Over and over Canelo struggles with stamina. Bud does not, due to his superior conditioning. Y'all probably think Canelo would just come in, plant his feet, sit down on his power shots, and land those vicious body shots with ease against Crawford. You are gravely mistaken. Like Mayweather did, Bud would stuff those attempts and counter on the inside. I am saying it now, Canelon would respect Bud's power. Before we jump into "size" let's look at the Heavyweight division where these rule no longer apply. How the hell did a TINY Heavyweight in Uzyk completely dominate and hurt the giant and highly skilled Joshua??? Not once, but twice. Please answer that question first.

Canelo beats the shit outta Crawford, Crawford fanboys need to stop gassin their boy before he gets hurt😅

Guys get out your damn feelings he’s black he went against his own and kept it 10000% real u heard it from the guy that sparred both.. Crawford keep it up your gonna end up worse than Charlo Canelo on the black tour now.
