Comments Thread For: Canelo: 'Crawford - You're a F------ Great Fighter! I Like Spence, But Crawford Is Too Good'

Yup! This is exactly what CCC will opt for next - someone he thinks he can beat.

Call me crazy, tell me IDK **** about boxing, whatever... I'd give Crawford the edge to beat CCC too.

No way. Can Crawford Canelos punches. Yes Crawford is a bette boxer than Canelo, but so was Billy Joe Saunders and Caleb Plant. By the way they are both about 5'8".

Bud received a lucrative fight offer this morning from Reynoso to fight his boi at a catchweight of 172lbs with no dehydration clause in Vegas with the usual judges, because you know, he's chasing greatness!

Too bad this type of fight happened at 35 for Bud. Had this happened 6 or 7 years ago, we would be talking about years of dominance at the highest level like it did for Floyd when he fought Corrales (RIP)

Terence is a great generational talent but it sucks that there isn't anyone in a near by division that is on par with him to make a really exciting fight. All the flaws I saw in Spence were easily exploited by Crawford. Not talking anything away from Crawford because only a small amount of active fighters can do this, but just saying it would be nice if we could get another generational talent in there with Crawford.

Canelo had GGG and I think a lot of us were hoping Spence would have some of that GGG durability at the very least but the guy folded so damn quick.. I'm happy for Crawford but also feel disappointed the fight wasn't closer. Now it seems like there really isn't another proven generational talent for at least three weight divisions away which makes this dream completely unrealistic especially because Crawford is already 35.

If I was managing bud I obviously would try to line up Crawford vs Mel next but I'm pretty sure this will be just as disappointing assuming Mel will be mostly likely coming out of a war and potentially KO loss from Canelo. If that is the case it will be the easiest undisputed win ever. Which again great for Crawfords legacy but unfortunately not for trying to find Crawford a worthy opponent.

If Crawford moves up to 154 that would still be two divisions away from Canelo so I wouldn't expect that to ever happen, but it would be nice. Even if Canelo agreed to fight at 160, I don't thing Crawford could get there.

The only other generational talent on his way up that is near by is Teo. Maybe if Crawford can stay at 147 Teo can meet him there and they both could make a lot of money. Soo.. Damn I hope this can happen at the very least. Apart from those two, I don't think there is any other fighter that would come close to giving Crawford a better fight.


But after all that...the last thing that is bothering me about last night is that Kavaliauskas and Benevidez give Crawford a better fight than Spence...

You’re forgetting Boots Ennis.

Now if only Canelo could take some notes from Spence in defeat and not make so many excuses when he loses.

The press conferences and trash talk for this would be off the charts. Teo and his father would talk so much ish and Crawford would just mean mug him and punish him.

[-Kev-]

Who says he’s out? Shyt, that ass whooping may have just punched Spence’s ticket to being Canelo’s opponent for 5 de Mayo 2024.

Can you make a list of all the Ring top 10 fighters Canelo fought coming off a loss?

Would be so marketable too. 2 time undisputed officially vs 2 time undisputed unofficially. Let's goo! And If Teo can pull the same performance he gave Taylor.. Damn that would be an awesome fight.

Spence, Jr. will bounce back. That is what warriors in the sport of Boxing do.

One loss should not define who you are as a man and as a fighter. It was a lesson learnt for sure, hopefully, this will progress him further to learn other fundamentals to up his game. He'll be back.

I highly doubt this. He took serious damage both physically and mentally in this last fight. And also had a tough car crash to recover from. You gotta realize he came back because the money is there and your prime only lasts so long. But damn, I don’t think Spence will ever be on top again. He had a major league concussion for sure.

would be a one sided beating. Teo fights like an ammy compared to crawford
