Terence Crawford v Jose Benavidez Jr

Benavidez with some good counters... wins the round.

3-1 Crawford.

Have it 2-2

3-1 Crawford and levels starting to show big. Benavides better wake up or just go home with a T shirt.

2-2 each

No matter how it goes I think Crawford looks slower at 147

Very close round.... but I'd give it to Benavidez.

3-2 Crawford.

Benavidez ripping a combo early but waits around. Couldn't have a bigger contrast is footwork. Gotta go 4-1 on work but close 5th

3-2 Crawford

Crawford with lots of wasted movement

Ohh nice straight right jacked Crawfords jaw right there. Good shot. 4-2 Crawford

Another close round..... this time to Crawford.

Memo to Benavidez: Shaking your head will not win you rounds.

4-2 Crawford.

Good counters by Benavidez but Crawford our working him and landing clean shots of his own

4-2 Crawford

I've got it 4-2 Crawford.

More snap on Buds jab. Clear Crawford round

5-2

Very little offense from Benavidez...... leaning in and waving his arms.

5-2 Crawford.

Crawford pulling away here now. I see the fight going to Crawford from here ...nice few rounds from Benavidez though.

Crawford painted him pretty good in 7th. Love to see Benavidez explode and use that size. 5-2 Crawford

Benavidez looks tired. Crawford is getting more aggressive as usual. I think Crawford will stop him soon enough.

Looks like it will be over soon

Whats with taking a flat karate stance like that and doing nothing. Dude is lost.

6-2 Crawford... pulling away.

Benavidez not doing much punching. Might as well keep shaking his head. Maybe some judge will buy it.

6-2, Benavidez needs to put up a fight

6-2 Crawford.

5-3 Crawford. Benavidez needs to seriously let his hands go

7-2 Crawford. Everything he does is three times as fast. Benavides looks like he's posing in a mirror.

7-2.

Benavidez looking "scarecrow-ish" in there.

Too much posing.... head shaking.... time wasting.

#1 cc Top Rank short shorts.

7-2 Crawford.

Benavidez doesn’t seem willing to go out on his shield.

7-2 Crawford

At least Benavidez fought back in this round.

Still lost.

8-2.

Fun round but still dominated by Crawford

8-2

I thought that Crawford would stop him, but Benavidez is just standing there and trying to survive

8-2 Crawford.

9-2

Benavidez still shaking his head and waving Crawford in.

Later he'll wonder how he lost the fight. :rolleyes:

Horrible footwork by Benavidez.

9-2

9-2 Crawford.

Rinse and repeat Crawford. Be very interested to see how he held up with a Spence body attack. Benavidez should lose a point for that crouching tiger hidden dragon stuff.

:angryxo4: Very nice finish. Don't coast on a lead add to it

Man Crawford is f’n good

Wow.
