Boxing: 8.3 11:30pm ET Terence Crawford vs Israil Madrimov

Madrimov. Let's. Go.

Madrimov has footwork, power, and a chin
🥊
Can't really argue about most people clearly favoring Crawford, but it also is interesting seeing +500 to +550 for the fast rising champion that is Madrimov.

As for other goings on.

Mokaev.
Darn him for being an overconfident young fighter who won't tap even while his knee is cracking
and regularly demanding to fight the champion.

How dare he act like that WITHOUT also
beating women, causing drunk driving collisions, being a drug addict who evades or uses threats during drug tests, etc.

Great work on picking that parlay. Hopefully Umar can bring it home.

Mokaev gets a bad wrap on here. I don't understand all the hate for a young undefeated kid. I've been a fan, and hope he finds a new home that will appreciate his skillset.

Belal looked amazing. Let's get him versus Shavkat. That would be soooo good.
 
Trainer Joel Diaz explains how Israil Madrimov beats Terence Crawford
Concludes with:

"But I just think that either or, this fight is going to end up going the distance and I just think Israil is going to be the more effective fighter because he’s really sharp with his defense, I don’t think Crawford has the speed to catch Israil because his sparring partners are fast and his defense is on point. So Israil is going to be really sharp on defense and explosive with his power."

Why do people call him Budrick

Hopefully Umar can bring it home
Madrimov winning would be great.
Umar winning will be great, but also mostly expected. Looking at skills/potential, have wondered if Umar is about the most promising prospect -> now -> contender the UFC has had since Islam Makhachev.

If it weren't for Umar's shoulder (??), consideration would be given to making big (multi-thousand)
real $ moves.

Belal looked amazing. Let's get him versus Shavkat.
Seems there is speculation it could be Marty or Shavkat.
Also wish Khamzat could cut weight and NOT inflame his lungs, so he could still be involved now that 170 is moving on. Too bad.

Mokaev gets a bad wrap on here. I don't understand all the hate for a young undefeated kid.
Exactly. It does not make sense. He looks like he could work to "put it alltogether" and become a champion. And he apparently has as much/more heart than every contending fighter.
Talk about "To the death" and "You have to kill me" etc. often leads to a fighter tapping,
but Mokaev's inability to tap is verified.

What is hated vs. what is not hated as related to the UFC
seems strange and based on weird agendas.

And that might be within the larger issue of general dislike for the 125 division, despite it being more interesting now than ever.

 
OK @Krixes and @AppliedScience .....I read a bit in this thread and now I'm kinda interested in this Crawford v Madrimov fight.

I know about Crawford obviously but not familiar with Madrimov. I'd appreciate it if someone could give a quick rundown on madrimov and why he might win. Certainly seems like a live underdog so I'll probably stick a not of Vcash on him.

Any input happily received...
 
quick rundown on madrimov and why he might win

1. Madrimov is strong and confident, admitting he is a fan of Crawford, but also having no fear and wanting to fight one of the best in only his 12th pro fight.

"He doesn’t have any weaknesses,” Madrimov said of Crawford.
“I haven’t seen any of those, but I will try to discover some. I am very excited to get this opportunity to make a statement, and I will, Inshallah.
"I’m not Errol Spence Jr. I am Israil Madrimov. This is my division.”
^


2. Going to assume that Madrimov will better be able to endure Crawford's counters (such as his liking for countering with a fast uppercut) than Crawford's previous opponents at lower weight classes.

3. Whether or not Madrimov is "ready" for this level of fight, It is interesting to be able to get a boxer of Madrimov's skill level at +550.

4. Go Uzbekistan

Ok thank you.

I appreciate you giving me a bit of background. I don't watch much boxing these days but this one looks like an interesting fight.

Crawford is the man, and can do a bit of everything. Madrimov has a real shot here, unless he gets in there and starts star gazing. We just saw that in the last Jose Aldo fight.
