    Khan never fought any top welterweights so moving up was always a joke. Crawford is worlds apart from deluded Khan but it is a big ask .

      Crawford vs canelo would be very different than khan vs. Canelo, and khan should know that, having been put to sleep by one, and bludgeoned by the other. Bud knows exactly what he's doing in the ring, not flailing or rushing in punching wildly, crossing his feet, with his hands low and his chin up in the air. Canelo struggled to catch Khan for the 1st four rounds. Khan started to slow down and posed for pictures for too long, and so he got exactly what his hand called for--- a Mexican Clenbuterol lightning bolt to the jaw. This would never happen to Bud, the master boxer puncher. He would handle Canelo same as he did Khan and Errol. Canelo would get to see the skills up close and personal, and the world would be shocked once again, because they refuse to believe Bud is like that, no matter what he does.
      Clenbuterol would hit bud on the shoulders and throw him around like a rag doll. Also Buds punches would amount to ZERO against Canelo. Ask Bivol about Canelo’s POWER. He’ll laugh. Weight classes exist for a REASON.

          Nothing wrong with chasing greatness. If Bud actually managed to beat Canelo its a huge addition to his legacy, and if he loses it wouldnt hurt him that much. Obviously a ****ing huge payday too.

              Of course you can't compare Khan and Crawford, it's two different levels, classes, leagues, whatever you want to call it. But Khan only went up 8 lbs to fight Canelo. Even if Canelo was fresher then, it's not the same as Bud going up three full weight classes to fight Canelo. He would be at a massive size disadvantage whatever way you look at it regardless of Bud's skill level. They are about the same height but Canelo is much broader and has fought as high as 175.
              If this fight ever happens (not to mention the possible implications of Bo Mac's current legal troubles) and Terence does win, it would be an achievement of colossal proportions, placing Bud firmly with the greatest of all time.
              You ain't wrong! I place Bud among the very best I have seen and have been watching boxing for decades.

                That wasn’t the crazy part. The crazy part was legions of Khan fans (Pakistanis and Brits) actually believe Floyd ducked him. How insane is that?

                  Khan would’ve gotten sparked out by Canelo regardless of the weightclass. The weightclass wasn’t his issue.

                      Canelo wasn’t a natural 168 fighter at 155.
