Speaking to Shaq and Tom Brady ahead of the fight with Canelo and Dana White Terence Crawford said:

“I won’t say exactly how it will end, but it will end with my hand raised, making history. I like that answer, but let’s talk, Bud. Listen, listen, listen. You might see me as the smaller fighter, but Canelo can testify—he’s gone up against bigger fighters and won. All that ‘smaller fighter, bigger fighter’ talk goes out the window when you have skills. Canelo’s a tremendous fighter with skills, experience, and power—he’s got it all. That’s why this fight is so intriguing. Everyone wants to know: Can Terence Crawford handle Canelo’s power? Can he deal with Canelo’s pressure and body attacks? That’s why people are excited— they know how great I am, but they don’t know how great I’ll be at 168. We know what Canelo brings, but no one knows what I’m bringing at 168. That’s why this fight is so compelling. I never thought in a million years I’d fight Canelo. Watching him rise while I was in a smaller weight class, it was never a thought. But as I got bigger and great fighters retired, Canelo and I are the last greats. Why not make it a super-great fight? That’s why I chose Canelo. I love you both, but you still didn’t answer the question. How do you see this fight end? I told you—no knockout predictions. If you watch my whole career, I never predicted knockouts or specifics. But every time I said something, I said I’d win, and I’m saying that now: I’m going to win.”

The fight is on September 13th in Las Vegas and the studying of tapes is most plausibly underway at this particular time.

They both will try to throw a boxing few baits and decoys at one another before the fight but it is the ones they throw in the fight in the early rounds that will count most.
