      I love the concept of invincibility, but three weight classes is a ton. If Bud is going to pursue this for the money, cool. If Bud is going to pursue this because he thinks he will win AND he doesn't want to eat his words above in the article, I cannot imagine him not getting knocked out. He can be hit and Canelo's shots will hurt him like he has never been hurt before.

        There is literally no reason why Canelo should be in the same sentence as welterweights. Crawford,Spence? You have David,Andrade and Bivol ready to fight you at 168. The only people that want to see this fight are people that want Canelo to beat up on a smaller guy,and people that want to see Crawford lose to a bigger guy. Crawford is 36 year old welterweight who started at 135. Why on earth do people want him to jump 21 lbs in order to fight a guy who's already had fights at 175?

          Bud Crawford is a generational talent, but so is Canelo. Crawford, even with his skills and boxing prowess will get hurt coming up to 168.

              Not sure if you read the article.
              But Canelo is quoted as shooting down the Crawford fight himself saying " he's too small ".

              The disgraceful one's are the fans and promoters calling for this fight.

                The only fight that makes sense at this point is Benavidez. Everything else is chatter.

                  ******er ? if that is possible it usually does git a lot dumber, a fight that most people looked at Saturday Night as a boring old one sided easy target type of fight leads to talking about something made up in the minds of the Showtime crew and a few other crew members....................Some people (Espi) will say anything to keep there brand name out there in conversation......................

                    I do not understand for the life of me why this is being considered as an actual potential bout.

                    The size difference is insane the bout is not feasible in the slightest. Straight up dumb.
