      Crawford vs. GGG would be good at MW.

        Fighting Canelo is not the same thing as fighting a guy he already destroyed.
        You keep saying “many people want to see it” but it’s not true. Bud will be a 20-1 favorite to destroy Spence again. It is a meaningless fight.
        This would be akin to Floyd rematching Marquez at 144 as agreed. Marquez himself said he would have never beaten Floyd at any weight.

        Bud fighting Canelo is a gallant challenge hence the intrigue.

          Many people, including Bob Arum and Eddie Hearn, thought the first fight would be too expensive, and a flop! They were wrong! If the rematch is AT 154, it's an easy sell, because the fans know (or will be persuaded) Errol was too big for 147! It won't sell like the first fight, but it will sell more than Haney vs. Prograis, and Benavidez vs. Andrade! Spence is NOT Marquez!

            You are right about one thing, the rematch would sell more than Haney and Benavidez vs Andrade. So in a business sense, it makes sense and cents.

            Do you think the rematch will have a different outcome?
            Spence is not Marquez but the logic is exactly the same. Also, this was a unification fight at 147 and Spence made weight just like he did when he beat ALL his other opponents so why should he be viewed differently now that he got destroyed by Bud?

              Spence has been struggling to make 147, for a long time, and his fight with Ugas was April of 2022! When you add the weight cut to the long layoff, it was a recipe for disaster! I think Spence's ONLY chance to beat Crawford, is at 154! I still don't think he can beat Crawford, because Crawford is so strong and smart, but I would love to see it at 154! I think the only competition for Crawford is Jaron "Boots" Ennis!

I’ll shhhhhh all over you and your Canelo fandom marica. Dudes be up here trying to change the narrative. Context matters. So if I fought Duran, Floyd, sugar Ray, and dug Archie Moore out of his grave I’d be a great fighter too according to you. This dude fought a bunch of no hopers, his resume does not lie. Y’all wanna use that bullshhhh about active fighters resumes like he didn’t have anything to do just as much as MAYWEATHER did in making this sport about the money not the competition. Also, funny how it took him that long to even make the first Golovkin fight, he dumped his belt to try and wait it out. Go sit somewhere with a dunce cap.
                Not reading all of that. If u have to take that long to make a point u already FAILED. What active fighter has a better resume u female?

                  That’s my point, the thing that separates Canelo’s resume from tigers is that he got the chance to fight a bunch of great but past prime fighters. Take away Mosley, Mayweather, Cotto, Ggg x3 and Kovalev from his resume (who were all between 35-40 when he faced them) , you’re left with a barely above average list of opposition faced.
                  Sorry but your statement is absolute nonsense because on paper he could have lost ALL of those fights. Again, what active fighter has a better resume? If none then u have no point...

                      b My original comment was that Canelo has beaten great fighters other than ggg, but they were no longer great when he faced them. So your random statement about his overall resume is irrelevant to my point while my point is accurate. Try and improve your reading comprehension before weighing in on a topic because your comment is irrelevant to mine.
