Canelo Alvarez mas pinapaburan ng mga eksperto, ex-champs vs Sergey Kovalev

Mas pinapaburan umano ng ilang mga eksperto si Saul “Canelo” Alvarez sa kanyang unang light heavyweight fight kontra kay WBO champion Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev sa darating na November 2 na gaganapin sa T-Mobile Arena sa Las Vegas.

Hindi ito ang unang pagkakataon na lumaban si Alvarez sa ibang debisyon.

Noong 2017, natapat si Alvarez kay Gennady “GGG” Golovkin na nauwi sa draw at ang kanyang huling laban kay Rocky Fielding noong Disyembre sa super middleweight na natapos naman sa tatlong rounds dahil sa walang humpay na body shots mula sa Mexican superstar.

Si Alvarez ay may professional record na 52 wins, 35 dito ay via knockouts at tatlong talo.

Kilala si Alvarez sa kanyang pagiging dominante sa middleweight sa pamamagitan ng kanyang malalakas na bodyshot at bilis ng counterpunching.

Ngunit, kakailanganin ni Alvarez na dagdagan ang pwersa ng kanyang mga suntok sapagkat dumagdag siya ng mas mabigat na timbang.

Sa 34 professional wins naman ni Kovalev, 29 dito ang via knockouts kaya siya ay tinaguriang “Krusher.”

Sinasabing sana’y si Kovalev na tumanggap ng mga suntok upang makalapit sa kanyang mga kalaban at magbitaw din ng mabibigat na suntok.

Naniniwala naman si Andre Ward na sa mga unang rounds lang mahihigitan ni Kovalev si Alvarez.

Hindi rin daw nito kakayanin ang bodyshots na bibitawan ni Alvarez.

Pumabor si Ward na mananalo at lalamang si Alvarez sa 11th o kaya sa 12th round.

Sinabi naman ni Oscar de La Hoya, hindi magiging madali ang laban sapagkat karamihan sa panalo ni Kovalev ay sa pamamagitan ng knockout.

Aniya, Dela Hoya na promoter din ni Canelo, kilala ang kanyang laga sa paghanap ng mga bagong hamon at subukan ang kanyang sarili sa kahit sinong kalaban.

Canelo Alvarez ex-promoter Eddie Hearns predicts that Terrence Crawford will retire after his victory vs Israil Madrimov last August 3, 2024 in Los Angeles.

Crawford is now the 4-division champ after winning by unanimous decision.

However, Hearns said that three fighters are a must fight against Crawford before hanging his gloves – Vergil Ortiz, Jaron Ennis, and Canelo.

“I don’t think Crawford wants a Boots fight. I don’t think Crawford will fight again unless he fights Canelo Alvarez because he’s got money, he’s getting on [in age],” Hearns revealed.

He added that Crawford ducks Ortiz. He also mocked him for getting lucky with the scoring for his fight against Madrimov.

Hearns underscored that 36 year old Crawford is craving for mega-money, mega-fights, and real legacy fights that is why he does not like to fight the undefeated Ennis. He furthered that 27 year old Ennis is like the young Crawford version that is why he is skipping him.

Meanwhile, Crawford still hates Ennis because he is overrated.
