Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford says Canelo Alvarez at 168 pounds 'makes the most sense'

[boxing IQ]

Turki doesn’t seem ready to pay Canelo for what Canelo demands for Benavidez! He definitely seems interested in Bud vs. Boots! As usual, all the cards are in Canelo’s hands! All that “Undisputed” talk by Eddie and Boots is dumb as f-k!

Nobody's interested in Bud v Boots except these Breadman followers hyping up his Philly favorite.

If Boots is as good as he claims, why not go to 154?

Vergil Ortiz, whose younger, did. And to fight the previous #1 guy in Tszyu.

What's Boots' excuse? Not enough Karens?

Literally, Vergil Ortiz Jr. nearly lost his life trying to make 147, on multiple occasions! He didn’t go to 154 because of show of bravery! LMAO!

Agreeing to fight Tszyu in his 2nd fight at 154 isn't brave?

I don't know why people are still talking about Boots. He does nothing for Crawford - nothing. If anybody on this forum was in Crawford's shoes they would do exactly the same thing he is doing - chasing legacy and money.

If Boots wants all the smoke, why not go to 154?

Bud's there..

How did Boots get a belt via email? Who was the fighter that decided not to fight, when the IBF ordered the fight? Who could that be?

I never said anything about SHOT FIGHTERS, however Bud literally fought a fighter that had been shot! You just can’t make this s—t up! Lol! Haney proved himself @ 135, and 140! Wasn’t he undisputed? His only loss is to a guy who missed weight, and used PEDs? The WBC changed the decision to NC. Has he proved himself worthy of a title shot at 147 more than Boots? By your logic, I guess so?

He never beat champion, became interim against Karen was it? Then became full champ via gmail.

When did Spence get shot? Crawford got shot when he was younger, never knew Spence did. Did you just make that up or is it actually true?

Haney definitely proved himself, went to Australia bet on himself and won, even if I never particularly rated him, I always gave him credit when necessary.

Boots hasn’t proved sh**, unlike Haney and unlike Crawford, your comparison was awful, get over it and stop embarrassing yourself.

Was Bud a 3 weight champion at 27 years old?

”He yung doe”.

What makes age relevant? Is Wilfred Benitez the GOAT? Who else was a world champion at 17? What a distorted logic.

At 27 he'd beaten 2 world champions in the ring and was the Ring and lineal champ at 135. His other big win at that age went on to become a world titlist as well. Your Crawford hate is out of control, as usual.

I’ve criticized Boots’ decision to sign with MR, I’ve criticized Boots for trying to be undisputed in a weak division, all thing I’ve criticized Crawford for! However I’m not gonna let Crawford, nor Spence, nor Thurman, slide without pointing out their hypocrisy for treating Boots, the same way they complain about being treated!

I honestly don't have a problem with him trying to unify at 147, weak or not. That's preferable to him not fighting any ranked fighters, which is where he's at. I'd gladly watch Boots v Bud, but TBH, it feels more more like young Bud with no resume trying to call out Mayweather, because that's the difference in careers and age. This isn't Thurman-Spence-Bud. It's Mayweather-Bud, except Boots is far less accomplished at the same age. I sure hope you were calling out for Mayweather to fight Bud when Bud was 27... I don't know why you're so opposed to Boots building his own era.

Which one of these guys has a 100% KO rate at 147 against better opposition?

Here's a clue: it rhymes with mud.

I guess it depends on the people in your circle? In my circle, no one knows Madrimov!
