World IBF Champion in the junior middleweight division, Bakhram Murtazaliev, shared his thoughts in an exclusive interview with jeetbuzz59.com about Terence Crawford's debut in his division and Crawford's victory over Uzbekistan's Israil Madiev.
Bakhram Murtazaliev exclusively for Telecom Asia Sport
Crawford had a simple victory over Madiev after a break of more than a year. Madiev is a tough opponent, but Crawford won. I watched it live, and it seemed that Terence won confidently. In the first six rounds, Israil didn't do anything at all. He needed to take more risks. He defeated Madiev convincingly. I hope that if our fight takes place, I won't give the judges any opportunity to decide something at their discretion. Sometimes judges see a very different picture of the fight.
It's worth noting that 37-year-old Terence Crawford is a former undisputed world champion in the welterweight and junior welterweight divisions. He has achieಞ♔ved 41 victories without a single loss, has been recognized multiple times as the boxer of the year, and has topped the rankings of the best boxers of the modern era.
