    that's how i feel about it. Couldn't really stand him early on; was buitl by a TV network essentially, and really got me biased against him. Now I have nothing but respect for him. Reminds of Cotto in a weird way (felt the same early on about him): professional, no indulgences, delivers big fights, can't help but respect him now.

      This was a good win for Canelo, I'll give him his credit. He stopped an undefeated world champion with a style he had had trouble with in the past, that's all we were asking of Canelo Alvarez.
      Didn't mean to come aggressive here, I just honestly think that Crawford could have done so much more already (without dissing his resume). I think he beats Spence and tops at 154. I was super impressed after he beat Prescott, came out of nowhere for me. Still waiting for big signature fights, hopefully they come before he declines.

        Could see it from early on that he was a student of the game

          No one should ever compare Crawford's resume with Canelo's. Even trying to justify it is dumb

                  ggg half-azzed his pursuit of all the stars: Floyd, Ward, and Alvarez

                    Agree, Canelo passed him on my pound for pound list tonight. If Bud wants to take it back he has to fight Porter or Spence.

                      Definitely the best resume in boxing right now if we don't include Pacman. Canelo is an atg in the making.
