Crawford says he won't cut back down to 154, and he won't move up to 175. He's already Undisputed at 168. He says he may move to 160 next.
I'd like to see a card with Crawford fighting one of the current champs (maybe Lara) and then the other 2 champs Adames and Alimkhanuly can fight on the co-main event. Setting up an undisputed fight.
Crawford vs Adames with Alvarez vs Lara as a send off to the veteran boxers. Crawford becoming a six division champion that was 3 times undisputed. Canelo fighting a former opponent to settle a controversy.
TBud fights once a year
we’d be fortunate to get 3 more fights from him
I supposed he could double up next year at 38 then have one at 39
but who you beat for a belt is more important than collecting all of the belts
no one cares about a belt that’s held by random euroid
undisputed is a nice bonus but in reality it comes down to a lot of politics
first of all the only reason canelo was even undisputed is because he was allowed to duck benavidez and not get stripped
also look at the roles promoters play. There werent going to be undisputed in the haymond-Arum rivalry era because they each always owned some belts and werent going to make those matches. Crawford himself had to LEAVE ARUM to get the Spence fight made and get 147 undisputed
Even goes back to say lennox lewis, he was never going to be undisputed unless he signed a don king slave contract because king always owned some belts with Ruiz, Byrd ect. I think Lewis could have easily been undisputed if it were so simple as to make a tournament of all belt holders. Wlad could have easily been undisputed during his reign too.
