Why is Bud afraid to move up?

I like how LDBC purple slurpers downplay Duran as being “undisciplined” and don’t even credit his win over Barkley. They don’t even acknowledge SRL’s physique from 147 - 168, as if it would impossible for Bud. -
Took him awhile to fight a real one at 147
yeah I don’t see him at 168
if he that good I see middleweight being the absolute maxComment

Because he still has some business at 147 to take care of. I don't think Bud, would do too well at 168.Last edited by Charlie Zelenoff; 10-15-2021, 08:42 AM.Comment

I like how LDBC fans rejoice Fat James Toney fights and never bring up “undisciplined.” They just accept that Toney wanted the challenges regardless of physique but they completely dismiss Duran. Is it a racial thing? Only certain complexions are allowed to be fat? For example, would a fit and super disciplined Andy Ruiz have been a Middleweight like Toney? Toney weighed as much as 250lbs in the ring. So why do the LDBC types not make fun of Toney?Last edited by Thuglife Nelo; 10-15-2021, 08:38 AM.Comment

crawford started his career at 135 lbs and right now he's at 147 while he's still in his prime. i'm curious how long you've been watching boxing, and how big you think crawford actually is?
do you have trouble with english, or do you really think an unborn crawford was the matchmaker for four horsemen fights??
leonard moved up to 160 after retiring and waiting for marvin hagler to slow down. duran moved up for the money. hearns moved up in part because he had to. making 147 and fighting that night was killing him. even at 154 lbs he was losing a lot of weight in the gym. he's 6'1" and has shoulders like a cruiserweight.
crawford is at 147 for a megafight with spence. they wanted pacquiao for a number of years while he was with arum.

unfortunately boxing is having a ton of problems adjusting to the 21st century and nobody is buying ppv anymore. the megafights are not delivering top dollar right now. so guys are fighting cans and waiting out covid and waiting for the pieces to settle. ppv should be 10-20 bucks. easy as hell to watch on any device. fights should start on time on a clock. iu don't care if there's a fight before. have them finish after the main. those fights don't mean anything to almost everybody. you're cutting off your nose to spite your face by formatting things the way you do in a boxing card. people paid for the main event and it's ridiculous to expect them to watch 3-4 boring fights, or check in periodically to see if the main is on. people have better **** to do and it's way too easy to do it. it's way too easy to stream. but for 10 bucks who gives a ****??Comment

Bud always jokes about moving up in weight. He says “I’m going up to 178.” He actually thinks reporters just acknowledge it as sarcasm and that he is exempt to not at least go to 160? I remember once upon a time GG diehards would say “why does he need to go to 168, you just want to see him lose.”
imagine SRL fans hating on Lalonde fans back in the day to say, “why r u excited to see this figh? You just want to see SRL lose.”Comment
