      I believe that’s true . Gamboa had Crawford hurt . Spence was never a great fighter. Porter gave Crawford all he can handle. Does Crawford ko Kovalev? That was not even a matchup years ago. Breadman for some reason got all you wishful typing boys believing in Crawford as the if he is Allah! The man does get hit a lot . If a 135 Gamboa almost hurt Crawford. What does Canelo who has more experience and skill do to Crawford? I thought this was about skills ? Waste of time matchup . They both got better things to do at their own weight classes. I think Canelo knocks Crawford out to the body and he pisses blood. Doesn’t make him a bad fighter . But he biting off more than he can chew with this one . Benavidez vs Usyk? Inoue vs Ryan Garcia? Let’s just make any matchup and argue about it . Canelo doesn’t even need Crawford. It’s the other way around.

        And you're entitled to your opinion, but why bring race into it? And why bring race into it followed by the word st_upid?? You don't believe a White, Asian or Latin person can believe Bud can beat Ginger??

        I get it, you don't think it's possible for Bud to win, I just felt that your reply was crude, in bad taste and a bit on the ignorant side, but that's not to say that you are ignorant. Not trying to personally attack you, just hoping for a less demeaning dialogue...

          So your saying that accident had NO toll on his body. The weight drained was not apparent? He had said he struggle to make weight October 2022, let alone by July 2023.

          Even Porter and mean machine did bette than Spence. Are they better than Spence? Spence made weight to get that pay day. Doesn't mean he was healthy making it.

            No, because Mexicans thought Canelo will beat Bivol, just because Canelo is Mexican. It's more of pride of you natinality or race. They were not looking at facts and more of who do I like and who do I want to win.

            Example I thought Nery would have a chance of beating Inueo, but it was more of a Nationality thing. Hoping the Mexican would win. People make up their mind to have a chance in their minds, similar to people who play the Lotto and the Slot Machines and ignore the facts.

            Another Example were Mexicans thought Canelo would beat Mayweather. More of pride on Nationality or race. You will support your own becuase it ingrained in you.

              Crawford fans want us to buy a fight where he plays keep away instead of going to war with Canelo! Nobody wants to see that Crawford just doesn’t have the fan base for anyone to be suckered into believing that. He should fight Fundora and keep earning respect. Stop living off Spence’s name .

                Did it look like the accident had drained him when he fought Ugas and Garcia ???
                Why hold the belt hostage then , why not move up since he was saying he couldn’t make weight ???
                So in reality all the bullchit about being on the other side was just that ; bullchit ???
                And why keep Bud waiting for the rematch at the same weight he arguably couldn’t make ???
                Not here to argue but something just doesn’t add up

                  I truly believe he can outbox him without doubt but will Bud be able to stay away and just box ???
                  You never fought a day in your life butthead. Wrestling applies to a street fight . Not the ring . Skills and weight matter. Go watch WWE. I wrestled varsity in high school in Jersey . Ok yea I’ll beat any boxer lmao

                      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.
                      dont get me wrong... those names would add more to TC's resume and unifying a division would be a great thing to have on his resume, BUT again, beating canelo would outdo all of that!! which is why i am saying a win over canelo tops all of what you just mentioned! so why would TC battle it out with Murta, Fundora, Bohachuk, Virgil??? when he could just fight canelo and if he beat canelo then he's the top dog. and you do understand, fighting the names you mentioned will take 2-3 years right because aint no way TC gonna fight all of them in 1 year. so you rather see TC waste the remaining of his career doing that????
