    Like benevidez, but he tends to get hook happy and give away all his height and reach to fight like a t-rex and has a bad habit of pulling straight back with his chin in the air. Corrales, Williams, Margarito..all tall guys that fought short and eventually fell hard.

    Crawford cuts him up like a surgeon. Right hands over the top for as long as it lasts.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    I’m not sure anyone near the same size as Crawford can beat him.

    I’d pick Spence but I wouldn’t bet a dime on it.

    Yeah Crawford has impressed me too. Not only got the skills and power to dominate.... he's got the attitude and ring mentality. No wasted movements... no wasted energy. Crafty in the way he studies the opponent before fine-tuning his plan of attack. Right now I see no one on the horizon either.

    I quite like Crawford as well, but I thought some of the stuff he was saying to Benavidez the other day was racist as f-ck. Then he got all butt hurt when Benavidez started trashing his mom. Got to be able to take it if you want to dish it.

    if you look closely he is side stepping him.

    if you press down on your front foot and twist, and swing over your back foot in the same motion, your body swivels.



    and that lets the southpaw side step a right hand.



    the other way he throws the check hook is with a step back.

    you press down and push off on your front foot into your step back and let the other guy lunge into it, as he tries to cross the gap to compensate for the space your step back creates.



    thats why a good step back, and a check hook, are nice moves for a counter puncher to pick up. they go together well.

    most of the check hooks you'll see southpaws throw are over the top of the orthodox jab and side stepping the orthodox right hand. you should see crawford doing that a lot tomorrow. i think thats why he switches southpaw. so he can throw southpaw check hooks with his right hand. he really likes that punch.

    I think Crawford was deliberately missing with the hook at the weigh in.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I agree @Master.
    I also think Tyson was deliberately missing his punch here

    nice post. Check hook from Crawford comes naturally. He has a look for a round or two then takes you apart with relative ease. Can't see benavidez bringing anything Crawford hasn't already dealt with
