Of course Bud is the right move, but why was he going to fight THURMAN @ 154, instead of Boots @ 147???

i think we all know the answer to that one dont we, thats obvious, spence wanted to deal with thurman because hes an annoying twat who talks about himself in the 3rd person

Also to be fair Andrade has a LOT more ducks then Canelo does. And Andrade passed on the Parker fight which would of made him a mando which Ryder stepped up an won then got the fight. These are facts.

Those are indeed facts.

Benavidez himself is ducking Andrade and Morrel jr.

However one duck doesn't justify another.

Andrade's ducks do not absolve Canelo from his own ducking of Andrade, and vi e versa.

Same for Benavidez.

We must hold ALL of these fighters accountable if we want to the fights we want to happen.

100% agree with you. I want to see Canelo vs. Benavidez!!! Who wouldn't? That would be a BLOODBATH!!!

To be fair a few years back I wanted CanCharlo but not like this. Active in Shape MW one. I do think lil bro won't be a walk in the park but he's fightinga dude who has been getting hit by BIG dudes and can take a punch. I don't think he has the power to get Canelo to respect it. And don't see Canelo getting caught by suprise like the guys Charlo slept.

You're avoiding the obvious, just like Spence was avoiding Boots! Lol!

[Shadoww702]

Since we're playing the biggest ducks. Add Benavidez to that list. He ducked Morrell. I thought the fight was a done deal. Then Team Benavidez said heck NO!!! They must feel they still have a shot at Canelo and don't want that risk. IMO I think Morrell beats Benavidez.

But Andrade stiil the BIGGEST Duck!

Charlo
Lara
Sergiy
Jenabek
Parker

I'm sure I'm forgetting someone else.

Also why didn't Andrade and Jacobs ever fight? Didn't they both win a MW Title the same day?

[BoxingParadigm]

because some people are cynical, now if he beat crawford or spence that could be special, hes yet to contend for a title yet even tho i think he could have gone a route to get a shot, correct me if im wrong on that tho

He hasn't accomplished anything special, but he looks like a special talent. I don't go overboard claiming he'll 100% be a HOF fighter or anything like that, it's just that his talent is obvious and when people go out of their way to discredit such a young fighter with so much potential it confuses me. I thought we were all boxing fans here.

To address your comment better, I don't follow any one fighter super closely, but I don't think Ennis has had the opportunity to fight for a title. He became the IBF mandatory, but Spence hasn't had to defend against a mandatory from the IBF in a really long time. I think some people mentioned he supposedly had a chance to fight Crawford, but that seems to have been a publicity move. Once Ennis' dad wanted to get showtime involved the other side went silent and made the fight with Avenesyan.

I don't understand the insecurity some people must have that they just can't acknowledge that Boots is a special talent, but instead try to bring up his "poor" defense bs to the conversation.

Yes, he looks special and passes the eye test. But you can’t crown him based just on that.

Who has he really fought up to this point? And then if you bring up the disappointing performance in the Karen fight certain people want you to just ignore and overlook that. Usually the same type of people that want to be supercritical and nitpick everything Canelo does.

You have to hold everyone to the same standards.

boots is 26, ok pretty young, i mean loma for example, the greatest amateur ever, great potential, he got a lot of crap, boxing fans dont like all fighters and their fans etc plus trolling plus hype, generational talk, best ever etc, gets some fans backs up i guess, works all ways too

[TheWinners]

I don't know if it's guaranteed Canelo will fight Benavidez. However I think it's naive to not even consider since he has a 3 fight deal. And as it has been said, he always fights the guys people say he never will fight. Every single time. They said he wouldn't fight Trout, Lara, or GGG. On this same forum. I've been around before my profile says. And the goalposts is always moved. Just like it was with Mayweather. I hope he goes on to fight everyone and shut people up for good. He always had that " I'll show you " attitude. But after he shows you, you wanna see something else.

Haters love to hate, if its not their Tonka Truck its no good in any way.
