Yes, Bud hit legendary status so to speak but, he's not the first.

It depends. Old school fighters had to fight more often and you just had more people who were fighters, so there were a lot of opponents to go through. So yes, Bud aint have to do that or done it
But when you just look at his skills and abilities, I really do rate him as a top 5 ATG WW. Maybe even higher. Hard to think anyone can match up to Robinson, but feel like Bud might beat any other WW
His combination of skills including being able to control the postion of your opponent. Bud was a wrestler and I think that gives him this huge advantage. And his ability to land power shots from any range at all, plus his ability to adapt and read and use patterns. That combo of skills is crazy
Plus I have never seen a fighter use a hook to counter a jab so much, the dude does things no other fighter doesLast edited by Bostonfear; 07-31-2023, 05:46 PM.

Until Crawford starts to decline he is the best in boxing and the best fighter in quite some time better than Floyd imo. He doesn’t have any controversial decisions on his record he dominates pretty much everyone and in the biggest most challenging fight of his career he destroyed his competition. I’d put my money on him to do the same to Charlo if he were to move up and get that fight. I think almost everyone underestimates his power. Not only does he have power he has the skill set to use it very effectively. He didn’t ever look like he was even breathing hard Saturday.

Same could be said about Bud before the Spence fight. Who did he dominate that was anywhere near Spence's level until he actually did it?Bronx2245 likes this.

There's greater boxers than bud who have fought many better opponents than bud has, yet get criticised also. So bud needs to get back in ring and convince some more!

Originally posted by LAchargers373 View PostBud is great bud Spence is his best win and Spence ain’t really beat many people of note himself. Crawford I rate still behind manny mayweather trinidad de le Hoya they all fought better competition. Bud is gaining ground still tho and could conceivably catch them with the right match making and wins
Bud destroys and obliterates Trinidad any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
Trinidad got EXPOSED as truly one-dimensional by Hopkins and that got cemented by Winky Wright who literally used just the jab to pepper Trinidad into retirement. I have never seen an elite boxer look so confused and defeated as Tito did when he fought Winky. Tito had zero plan B and couldn’t even adjust a little to make it a good fight.
