Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez is a bridge too far for Terence Crawford, says Mikey Garcia

[MulaKO]

Trust me, Bud will out box Canelo and his punches will cause Canelo to halt the bully tactics. Bud is way stronger, equally as skilled as Mayweather with more savage grit. How did Canelo vs Mayweather go? Bud will make it look easier!

Bud is stronger physically and that comes from his wrestling years
Imo , he won’t hurt him with a punch though
I truly believe he can outbox him without doubt but will Bud be able to stay away and just box ???

Come on bro!!

Come on Canelo couldn’t beat Bivol, one Weight class higher. Crawford beat washed up Brook, Porter, Khan, weight Drained Spence. He barely beat a 154 Amateur Madrimov.

Are you slow? Was in the very next sentence. Fundora has 2 of the remaining belts at 154, which is a stacked division. He's two fights away from being the only fighter to ever get 3 time undisputed (women's side doesn't count because of the massive lack of competition), which would cement his place in history. Canelo isn't undisputed any more, has been on the slide in both skills and reputation because he's been ducking. The very fact that (some) people think Crawford can win this should tell you how much he's slipped.

Regardless, weight classes exist for a reason, and Crawford will find out within the first two rounds. I'll be rooting for him, as I have for years, and it would be a great story if he could win. But the fact that he struggled against Madrimov and then refused to take the shot he petitioned for, and in fact refused ANY fights except the big money fight should tell you something. Or are you trying to pretend that Madrimov is on Canelo's level? He knows he's already at his limit at 154, or he'd have gone for 3 weight undisputed to make the Canelo fight both more realistic AND more lucrative.

once again, TC beating fundora does nothing as compared to TC beating canelo!!! what are you not getting????

so now weight classes exist for a reason??? so a fighter is supposed to fight in 1 weight division for the rest of his career??????

If you think that Ferrari crashed had any effect on his body.

There is something to be said about unifying a division though. Once a fighter unifies the division, the reasonable thing to do is move up and fight for titles at the higher weight class. Personally, I would have liked to have seen Bud battle it out with Murta, Fundora, Bohachuk, Virgil or at least 2 of those names before moving up.

The main reason(if we're being honest) fighters are wanting to fight Ginger is for the paycheck that comes with fighting him. I seriously doubt Bud would want to fight him before unifying 154 if fighting Ginger didn't bring a massive payday. That's obviously just my opinion.

My reply was centered around you claiming that only black people or st_upid people believe Bud can win. I'm not attacking you, but that's a very ignorant comment...

It's my opinion. So you think Inoue will beat Tank, and that Tank will beat Crawford. That's being Ignorant.

Beating Garcia or Ugas was not impressive with or without the Crash accident.
