This hogwash spin is how Maddy is a threat is silly.
He came from nowhere
He will go back there (unless there's an unnecessary rematch. Close fights don't always need redos).
Some dog's have that one moment where they fight beyond expectations.
Sometimes a favorite will not really put in the effort to look great.
Not sure why/how beating Maddy was supposed to propel Bud to the p4p throne
.
Imagine any other ESTABLISHED fighter being hailed for beating some 10 fight ''champ''
Words like ''set up'' and ''cherry pick'' and ''duck'' and ''pay off'' and ''GTFOH'' would rightfully be used.
