Comments Thread For: Team Crawford Member Fires Back At Canelo: "The Only Great Fighter He Beat Was GGG"

[ShoulderRoll]

Who’s this Bernie Tha Boxer guy?

Any word on what’s going on with BoMac?

[JakeTheBoxer]

I don`t even like Canelo, but he beat 41 old GGG, Cotto, Jacobs, old Kovalev.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Canelo should be shown respect for doing more for boxing than anyother fighter over the the last ten years, bringing casuals to the sport, buds dog should understand his master hasn't and will not be capable of such things

I am a hardcore boxing fan, I don`t give sh.it about casuals, but you are right.

Canelo has done more for the sport`s popularity than any other fighter in the last 10 years.

[hugh grant]

What Nell did is more impressive though, best better fighters and more regularly.
But hats off to bud if he even takes the Nell fight

[dannnnn]

murderous row

lol.

Hans, your writing is consistently terrible and your biases clearly evident. Please put down the thesaurus and stop polluting the main page with quite so much drivel on a daily basis.

So why is Crawford calling him out if Canelo hasn't beaten anyone?

Why Does Crawford want to fight Canelo at 168, but not Spence at 154?

Leonard Ellerbe Supports Errol Spence Wanting Crawford Rematch At 154
09/20/2023 - By Will Arons

Leonard Ellerbe of Mayweather Promotions backs Errol Spence Jr’s preference to have the rematch with Terence Crawford at 154 rather than 147 to make it easier for him to make weight.

Ellerbe feels that having the rematch at 154 would make a difference between it’s seven pounds, and Spence will be more comfortable at that weight than he was at 147.

Leonard says that Spence didn’t have to fight Crawford, and he gave him that opportunity. He wanted to do it for the fans.

Ideally, Crawford should give Spence the rematch at 154 rather than looking to gain an advantage by making him come down to 147 to increase the chances of victory.

Ellerbe points out that he hadn’t heard from Crawford’s team that he was insisting on the rematch taking place at 147 with Spence.

Crawford hasn’t spoken up to say that the rematch with Spence must be at 147; perhaps the person who is doing the talking for him from his team is voicing his own preferences rather than it coming from Terence.

Spence (28-1, 22 KOs) looked weight-drained from making the 147-lb limit last July, which some believe cost him the fight to Crawford (40-0, 31 Kos), who looked much more comfortable getting down to the limit.

“Did Terence say that, or did someone in his team say that?” said Leonard Ellerbe to Fight Hub TV, reacting to being told that Terence Crawford wants the rematch with Errol Spence Jr. at 147, not 154.

“Oftentimes, what you see in the sport is people speak, but they don’t have all the information. I personally haven’t heard that, nor have I inquired about it,” Ellerbe continued about the reports of Crawford saying the rematch Errol with has to take place at 147.”

Crawford should at least speak up to tell the fans & the media what weight the rematch with Spence rather than letting his team member do the talking for him and upsetting a lot of people in doing so.

“But Errol gave him the opportunity when he didn’t have to. He made the fight because he wanted to do it for the fans,” said Ellerbe. “He sacrificed some things. So, in my opinion, you got to do what you got to do.

“154 is seven pounds North. It does make a difference. Errol Spence is an incredible fighter, and Crawford is too. If that’s what Errol wants to do in the rematch, I support him wholeheartedly because he as a fighter, as man, he knows what he wants, and if Crawford will grant him that opportunity to give it to the fans.

“Errol didn’t have a good night that night, but it’s sometimes like that. He just wants the opportunity to go redeem himself, and I support that,” said Ellerbe.

[Jab jab boom]

You gotta be a certified Golovkin ****rider to believe he won that 2nd fight. Canelo completely ruined him that night. All Golovkin did was jab and run all night. Golovkin always talking about Mexican style and in the biggest fight of his life he turned into a cuban

Of 50 press row scorecards from their rematch, only 2 had Canelo winning. The rest had ggg winning or a draw. Soooo, as we all already have known, the biggest ****riders are clearly the canelo fans.

[Jab jab boom]

Canelo beat other great fighters, they just were no longer great when he faced them.

What about the 1st fight? Did GGG turn into a Cuban?

This right here is the problem with boxing “Leonard says that Spence didn’t have to fight Crawford, and he gave him that opportunity.“.

Not fighting your undefeated rival for a unification? Seriously lol
