“We’ll Pick Him Apart”: Terence Crawford’s Coach Makes Bold Claim as Fight Talks With Canelo Alvarez Heat-Up

Terence Crawford became the first man to become an undisputed champion in two divisions. It didn’t take much time for the world to realize that the Omaha native had his eyes set on the stars. He understands that it will augur well for his legacy if he goes beyond what he has accomplished. It means becoming undisputed in a third division. But for the time being, his ambitions, to all intents and purposes, bank on the outcome of the major fight that takes place next month.

So, on September 30, two of the biggest names in boxing will line up to create a new chapter in the Super Middleweight division. Jermell Charlo takes on Canelo Alvarez. Despite the former’s daring move, leaping two divisions, the scale tilts in the Mexican champion’s favor to emerge the final winner. So ‘Bud,’ who has expressed willingness to scale up, might end up meeting Alvarez. But does he have what it takes to dislodge a boxer of Canelo Alvarez’s caliber? His long-time trainer, Brian ‘Bomac’ McIntyre, for one, believes so.

The 53-year-old, who has trained, besides Crawford, former champion Jamel Herring and Amir Khan, was talking to RingIQ TV. So the channel’s reporter asked, “Going forward, Bud wants to be undisputed in three different weights. There [are] many options. Canelo is one of them at 168. I believe he was mentioned at, um, what do you think of that fight? Do you think Canelo’s too big?” McIntyre highlighted that the transition to 168 pounds is seemingly natural for Crawford.

He already keeps his weight down to around that range. Nevertheless, the Welterweight champion is the kind of person who prefers to put himself through his paces. Hence, as is the usual practice, the team will go back to the boardroom and dissect each move of Canelo Alvarez. He said, “So, I mean, we’ll do what we always do. We’re going to the classroom, and we’ll pick him apart, me, Red, Esau, you know, we’ll pick, he’ll pick his a** apart, and we’ll take that what we know in the classroom and put it in the gym so we could come out victorious.”

Exactly a month ago, Terence Crawford passed a milestone hitherto unbroken. Thus, with a clear aim to help him take on the next, Team Crawford is gradually mobilizing and psyching themselves up to face the next big name. The big ticket that would finally consolidate the Nebraskan’s legacy among the greatest of all time.
