[Mr. Blonde]

I don't understand this fight.

[TyrantT316]

I understand people's issue with this fight, but Ali didn't fight 10 Foreman/Frasier/Listons in a row.

I think this fight is more about Pacman/Crawford not coming off and keeping his busy/keeping his belt to lineup a big fight down the line.

Crawford has fought like 3 or 4 underwhelming fights in a row now. That's why people are upset.

i guess when the "fighter of the decade" has the fear of god of terence crawford and turns down the fight then in the small space of time someone had to be picked
ruslan turned down the fight so who else was he supposed to fight?
