Can't have been feeling that bad if you spent 36 minutes sprinting.

Terrible, terrible fight. Stevenson sucks.

Crawford is probably gonna introduce to Victor Conte and the SNAC Programme. The boy is trash

Terrible, terrible fight. Stevenson sucks.

Maybe the worst I've ever had the misfortune of watching.

If Arum threw Rigo & Crawford under the bus and claimed they was boring I'd be interested to hear his take on Shakur. They was never anywhere or anything like this.
You can't even sugarcoat it, absolute terrible and none of the top fighters are going to entertain him now.
He really damaged his stock tonight

Can't knock him for his gameplan. It wasn't the most fan-friendly, but he had a dangerous guy in front of him who could change the fight with one shot and handled him the way he should have. Stick and move. The "fans" can complain about how non-entertaining it was, but if he woulda lost, the criticism woulda been worse for losing. Win the title now, look good later. In the end the W is all that matters.

Are you alluding to Bud being on steroids?

Yeah, true. You have a solid point.

However, this performance is going to tarnish his reputation for a lil while until he comes up with something spectacular in his next fight. People will be talking about this performance as a mockery of him.

You could say the same thing with Davis and Pitbull Cruz... Davis performance in that fight.

For sure. He probably should’ve took that 25% against Haney, coulda been undisputed rn. May want to give Frank Martin a better split too. Nobody is going to want to fight him anytime soon.

But yeah, I remember Arum disrespecting Bud by criticising him after the Postol fight. Moron. And so were the casuals that criticised that flawless performance.
