Former two-weight world champion turned boxing analyst, Tim Bradley, has named the one current fighter he says nobody can beat.
Most pundits have their number one pound for pound boxer between three undefeated fighters, Oleksandr Usyk, Naoya Inoue, and Terence Crawford.
It’s his fellow American that Bradley thinks stands above the rest and has the ability to beat anyone he steps into the ring with.
Crawford is already a three-weight world champion and two-time undisputed. His last fight was a legacy defining duel against Errol Spence Jr and the 36-year-old saved his best performance for the biggest night of his career, dominating and stopping Spence in the ninth-round.
His next outing will see him move up from welterweight to junior-middleweight in a bid to become a four-weight champion when he takes on WBA title holder Israil Madrimov in August.
Speaking to ES News Bradley predicted ‘Bud’ to ‘crush’ Madrimov.
“He’s gonna crush this dude Madrimov at 154.”
Talking about a much hyped fight against supper-middleweight ruler Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, Bradley believes Crawford beats him… and anyone he steps in the ring with.
“Crawford beats anybody he steps in the ring with. Anybody. No-one beats Terence Crawford. And everybody trying to age him out? Bro, the dude two weeks ago did fifteen four minute rounds. Twelve with Shakur [Stevenson] and three with Shakur’s cousin. He gonna crush this dude Israil Madrimov at 154”
Crawford will make his 154lb debut against Madrimov on August 3rd in Los Angeles as part of a Riyadh Season event. The card also features Isaac Cruz vs Jose Valenzuela and Andy Ruiz Jr vs Jarrell Miller.
