Comments Thread For: Crawford Dismisses Ennis: 'I'm Looking for Bigger and Better Opportunities, Like Charlo'

Problem is , charlo is likely gonna lose to canelo .


Crawford should , fight right away vs thurman and make easy money while adding a name to his resume. Fight him in october

talk with spence about signing an extension to feb for their rematch at 154 .

This gives charlo time to come off his loss to canelo and fight tyszu in the spring .


That sets up crawford vs charlo in the late summer .

Its not a problem because Crawford said he most likely wont fight this year. He might dip his toes into 154 with someone else, but he might just fight Charlo straight after the Canelo fight.

The quesiton for me is, will Charlo even take the Crawford fight. Charlo has seemed really quite about it all

Lol just say Charlo is better risk/reward. I get it, there’s a business side to the sport, and the business side doesn’t involve the best fighting the best. I hate it, but I’d hate it less if fighters would say it like it is. Charlo is a for sure win, Boots is a 50/50, and they pay the same.

What do you mean they pay the same? That is an absurd calculation, it's not even close.

With the buildup, provided Charlo doesn't get totally murdered by Canelo, Bud will net upwards of $30 million at least, it will approach 800,000 buys, maybe surpass it due to the story.

Never underestimate how much a true beef can sell, Spence and Crawford were hugging and kissing in the leadup. Not this fight, it will be a modern hood classic, it will be BIGGER than the Spence fight commercially.

Boots can't provide that type of stage.

Ennis has dismissed the Bud fight multiple times already. He even dropped his WBO mandatory position for fear WBO might order the fight. It's true. You can't make such stuff up.

To you and a few others who don't know no better. Much respect for Jermell as I've always liked him much better than Jermall. He's a dog and fights anyone. But it's not like 154 was stacked just like 140 wasn't stacked when Bud cleaned it out.

Crawford has proved that he's ONE of the best of this Era. But all these mayweather comparisons and goat convos are premature at best. The guy didn't have a career defining fight til close to 36. In just my generation alone I couldn't put him over Hopkins, Ward, Mayweather, or even Canelo. Top 5 goat for beating Jermell Charlo? So I guess Canelo can claim that too then? No.

He needs 2 or 3 more wins against elite foes to even be considered best of this Era imo. That goat and mayweather comparisons is pure new breed internet nonsense.

None of the guys you mentioned went 2 divison undisputed. Let alone 3. BTW can name 2 WW from any era, that you thinks beats Crawford?

Undisputed means jack ****. Idk why so much stock is put into that. What matters is who you beat and when you beat them. If no one is in your division clearing it out means d**k. So there ya go.

And any era? **** just from my era he doesn't beat a prime mayweather or Pacquiao. But that's still irrelevant because it can't be proven. What can be is that many fighters before him definitely had more than 1 career defining fight before 36 and beat better competition.
