Circus meaningless money fight that no one has ask for.
Canelo should get a good offer for Benavidez and Crawford for Boots.Comment

I understand Crawford is a P4P fighter who might be better overall when it comes to skill, but honestly just can't see Terrance having enough endurance and punching power to compete at 168.
Out of Bud's opponents in the higher weight classes, the closest proxy stylistically to Canelo is Mean Machine who is quite smaller at 147 and has less recourses as a boxer. Yet the Lithuanian's counter punching was difficult to handle until Bud made adjustments in the later half.
Just don't think he have the conditioning and reflexes like most fighters without cutting in his optimal weight along while Alvarez is able to rehydrate quite heavier than him. Same fighter who has been dropping bigger boxers like Kovalev, Saunders, Ryder, Plant, Charlo (a 154 pounder who went to survival mode for twelve rounds) and Munguia.
Yet fans think a fighter that debuted at lightweight and has been buzzed in three occasions already by Gamboa, Porter and Kavaliauskas is going to be too skilled to avoid getting caught in twelve rounds? Just seems like a big task. Canelo is declining and might eventually lose again to another top fighter, just seems absurd in my perspective that he loses to a fighter coming from three divisions below when he can still contend at the top level.Comment
