So for now there is no trash talking, seems that Madrimov is respectful. But we all know that this is two warriors so as the fight get's close we might see some trash talking. I would agree that this fight looks good in paper, but I think Crawford will win and then face Spence later.
Most fighters from the former Soviet Union are honorable and respectful but very tough. I think Bud was trying to get the attention of Madrimov during the faceoff but it was ignored like nonsense. I remember Tyson Fury and Adrien Broner trying to start a drama against Usyk and Pacman but to no effect.
Bivol and Beterbiev is also with the same attitude, probably it's mostly American that really trash talk to sell the fights. Manny Pacquiao during his prime didn't trash talk even if he understand everything in English. And mostly this boxers rely on this fight to do the talking.
True, Bud's counter is underrated, but we have seen it in many of his fights, that he can read his opponents and then adjust during the fight, similar to Floyd. Madrimov hasn't seen a fighter in Bud's caliber so he might be in for a big surprised when he can't land his power punches, specially his jumping left hook.
