    NSB said that Canelo was green.

      Bud feet are not as good as Floyds that's why Floyd won his feet were always a step ahead of Canelo, Bud is more planted that's why he developes power and that's the danger zone with fighting Canelo, Floyd could stay away from Canelo power shots for 20 rounds, Buds different he likes to fight, I hope he goes for it just for the build-up and anticipation the fight would spawn.

          Khan didn't mention his fight but I wonder if he thinks that KO took away from his career so informing his advice to Bud. The issue is that Bud is 3x the welterweight that Khan ever was.
          That KO took nothing from Khan's career.

          He'd already been KO many times just as bad.

          Everyone already knew going into the fight that all you had to do to KO Khan was stare hard at his chin.

            Except replays clearly show that punch was nowhere beat the nuts.

            Khan got hit on his leg and faked a nut shot, refused to even take the five minute recovery and straight up called it quits.

            He didn't want to be in there with that kind of animal anymore and found a way out.

              A weight drained Delahoya who went down to a weight class he hadn’t fought in in almost eight years.

              Get a grip kid.

              There's no comparison here.

                Advice coming from a guy that can't box. His advice can't possibly carry any weight, lol.

                  This fight makes no sense, they are 3 divisions apart.

                    Bud has achieved so much anyway and pretty much recognised in the top 2 fighters in the world, he's become undisputed in 2 weights and easily smashed it in his career defining fight that everyone was calling for.

                    With all that done and dusted and him not getting any younger, why not take on this challenge if he truly believes he can?

                    What's the alternative, win some 154 title against someone not on his level and get no credit? Or beat some 147 up and comer and then get no credit because people will say they were too green.

                    He could try to become undisputed at 154 but that could take longer than the time he has left. Too many divas around those weights that will duck and dodge for years. It's not like with Inoue where he can wrap up a division in a year because he can sell out huge arenas in Japan and going there is the only option for a serious payday for the belt holders.

                    As long as Bud truly believes he can do it and its not just for money, then I'd be very interested to see it.

                      Yeah, I know that, but who knows what with Khan being so delusional - or maybe he just noticed that his punches had zero effect on Canelo. I'm not sure that Crawford can beat Canelo but I'm pretty sure he'd put up a better effort than Charlo did - almost impossible not to.
