Guess that narrative gets put to bed
Canelo fight is just a cash grab. Yeah it's for Undisputed 168 (assuming Canelo wins in May), but it's not a real fight.

shark infested waters LMAO thats a good one hhhhmmm
kovalev that canelo fought was not the guy ward fought anyone knows this to be true it just is canelo went to LHW and put a clause on Rocking ****ing feelding lol thats your hero think about it LOL
No where close to the Krusher
Shopworn and also forced to fight on short notice
But the nuthuggers would have you believe that he was going the whole way : Usyk
Lmfao over and over and over
Why would he be when he can become undisputed at 168 in just 1 fight and make more money by 5 times the amount than he'd make in those 3 other fights at 154.
It's not 3 fights. It's two. Fundora, and Murtazaliev. Do you think either of those guys is a better fighter than Canelo? If not, and he's actually capable of beating Canelo, why not do both? Become the first 3 division undisputed champ on the Saudi dime, THEN go up and beat Canelo, and have it seem much more realistic and probably make even more money. Then he would be 4 division undisputed, and would cement his place as the greatest of all time.
Of course, that logic only holds up if he actually CAN beat Canelo. If he can't, and it's just a cash grab, then he can't risk losing to the guys at 154, so he won't fight them, and then he'll go up and lose to Canelo, and then claim "I went up 2/3 weight classes and I was daring to be great".
Ducking undisputed at 154 only makes sense in one of those situations.
Would any of you people who think Bud is going to beat Canelo be willing to put coin down that Fundora or Murtazaliev beats Canelo? If not, ask yourself why not get the extra bank and extra history.

Should become undisputed at 154, and then cash out v nelo. It would only take a year to best all 154 champs
it takes him 3-4 years he only fights once a year
crawford is 37 and his one fight for this year is taken.
of course he isnt going to spend his one fight a year for years 38, 39 and 40 trying to unify 154
Yup, which really also puts paid to the notion of daring to be great. Going through Fundora and Murtazaliev to become the only credible 3 division undisputed titlist in the four belt era would also have cemented Crawford's place in history. The big difference is that he wouldn't likely get paid as much, and he's also likely to lose before achieving it. Doing so would have made the Canelo fight more realistic as well. Surely if he's capable of beating Canelo, Fundora and Murtazaliev should be a relative walk in the park. But even though he's running from that challenge, you've still got people bleating about how he's daring to be great. I hope I'm wrong though.
yes indeed i think bud is a great fighter but hes also getting on a bit now so i dont hold it against him not wanting to face the young guns at 154 now and looking for the cash out //?? GLORY fight v canelo i dont really like the fight as they usually disappoint these types of things but im willing to give it a shot and would be happy to be surprised by it but i doubt that happens
looks like a harder path to undisputed now at 154 then charlo time

Obviously. Anyone who knows boxing and isn't motivated by other things knew from the start that this is a circus fight cash grab. If Bud actually wins it somehow, and I'll be rooting for him to do so, then he's certainly #1 P4P and has a good claim to ATG status. But we've already seen what this looks like. Bud barely sc****d by Madrimov, and wants no part of the sharks at 154, which is currently one of the strongest divisions in boxing. And someone who actually did get undisputed at 154 got battered pillar to post by Canelo already and wanted plaudits for not getting knocked out. After this fraud of a fight, Inoue should be in second P4P and the era will be settled.

we didnt ask for this fight, but will accept being handsomly paid for it.
its the crawford fan telling us about all the length, speed, strength advantages he has over little canelo. little canelo fought bivol at his weight and took him to shark infested waters,. canelo did more in 2 fights at lhw than andre ward did in the last 5 years of his career. he fought the two guys ward retired to duck
crawford wont be doing any of that at smw
shark infested waters LMAO thats a good one hhhhmmm

one of these weird ass fights that rarelyh if ever turn out anywhrer near what people expect but then again calnelo stans spend their entire lives telling any one who will listen that canelo is a TINY SMW and even a smaall MW (LMAO) soooo the fight is actually very very fair LOL with no real advantage to the tiny ginger one
