    Oh, they are not the same size?
    1 stays in shape year 'round, the other is Gordo. Ginger, for him saying a few years back that 160 was too big for him lol, wouldn't even try to cut down that much. Sssssssss****, he won't even try to make 160 even though he said 168 was too much as well. I honestly doubt he'd even try to make 164 cw

      I think Nel o wins but it's surprising that some think bud can win? Even bivol thinks bud can win!
      I think at best bud will be ahead on points at some points in fight and there will be nervous moments for nelo.

          Take the hit ???
          Turki will make it work and Canelo will accept
          The fact that he was spotted with Turki seems to me that Canelo has changed his tune , his mega bucks is coming to slow end
          If he wants big money he’s gonna have to deliver the big fights

            i think canelo will take the bud fightg but he will want to extract mega mega guarantee from turki for the fight thats what im thinking if turki doesnt want to do that maybe the figth wont happen

              Not sure he’s in any position to claim what he wants
              If you recall how Canelo answered the Turki the first time around and now is flying around him like a fly on chit
              He’s realizing his time is coming

                It is not a fight that should be made. But Turki met Bud today. He also posted an article a bit where it's claimed Bud Canelo will happen in Sept. Looks like it will happen cause of the hype regardless of it being a mismatch between weights. I think they will get Canelo to win the belt back from Scull first in May

                  This isn't skill versus size, it's skill versus size AND skill. If they were in the same weight class it would be near enough a 50-50 fight. As it is they're 2-3 weight classes apart and it's a mismatch. Canelo has had more fights at 175lbs than Crawford has 154lbs. The notion of this fight more closely resembles Brook-Golovkin than Floyd-Canelo
                  TC knocked out Brook under even conditions he was standing with GGG, and TC punches a lot harder than Brook and Brook had his moments and so will TC, I still say TC Canelo is closer to Floyd Canelo in the skill quality and speed department that gap is there, I think TC will do better than Charlo, people think Canelo is just going to walk through him I see a very technical fight, Im not saying TC will win but he has a good chance to pull it off.

                    Brook’s performance against GGG was reminiscent of a deer frozen in headlights—unable to stand his ground in any meaningful way. Canelo, on the other hand, was a 155-pound super welterweight, effectively at his walkaround ceiling, forced to cut even further to 152 for that fight. Such weight manipulation undermines the legitimacy of the competition, much like when Cotto was drained to 145. In truth, when naturally larger fighters operate within their optimal divisions, the impact of skill and intelligence reaches a definite ceiling.

                      38 old welterweight versus a super middleweight champ.

                      Only i.idots believe it us a real fight. It is a retirement fight for Bud
