TC has a handful of kids at 31. ESPN is trying to makeup for their lack of promo of the fight in dead time due to Shakur’s 1st round ko. TC’s mom vs Khabib’s dad is the fight.Re: Terence Crawford vs. Jose Benavidez Jr. - October 13, 2018

Finally, the entrances. Benavidez with a black skull mask.
Warren Buffet in the crowd.
TC understated as always. Almost too relaxed, imo.

Rd 1 = Benavidez is huge. Snapping jab to gloves. Close round but TC steals it late, although it could go either way. Nothing significant.

Rd 2 = Benavidez difficult for TC. Again close. I think TC shaded it but I am giving it to Benavidez because both rounds have been pretty eventless.

Crawford is just doing what Crawford does. Dissecting you early before he starts taken you apart. This will be no different. He’s got the best boxing mind and ability to adjust than I’ve seen since Mayweather and Hopkins. Such a smart fighter.

TC is having trouble getting inside Benavidez who is basically a light middleweight and also a really good counter puncher. Fight is even for me thru 6 but in Nebraska you assume Bud is ahead. Benavidez is a good fighter.

Rd 6 = Crawford should be moving more. Ood right Benavidez. Now Crawford comes on. Crawford finally got going a bit. But this fight is still up for grabs.

I've got 58-56 Crawford, but he's certainly not dominating.

Crawford is starting to take over. Easily won round 7. He’s probably up 5-2 on the cards. 4-3 at worst.

He's showing signs of pulling away now though.

Rd 7 = TC working a bit better. Crawford more slick. Figuring it, but having more trouble here than I have ever seen.

JBJ is tired. Fighting Crawford is mentally exhausting. As exhausting as the body work.

Rd 8 = Crawford pecking. Benavidez looking for nothing but big shot and he is not throwing enough. Ben keeps shaking his head but taking pecks. Ben nice flurry. But Bud comes on. Pulling away on points now.

I would have thought the younger guy had a bit more in the tank than this.
Crawford is racking up the rounds now.
