    Sure Madrimov is nothing like Canelo, canelo is much better. That is why Crawford has almost zero chance. You will see.

      Ive never said TC wins, although Id like to see him pull it of, you was on about weight and I just proved it can be done, now youre jumping onto another track, Im a positive kinda guy I like to see great fighters shoot for great things, from a viewers perspective I dont see any point in being a stick in the mud naysayer crying because the tide is coming in.

      Oh I forgot to add, Margarito is twice what Hussain was, just saying, I don't think you have an argument as to why it shouldn't happen.

        Long inactivity is never a good idea.

        I would give Bud more chance uf ge was more active, with some fights at 160 or 168.

        Alvarez likes to rest on the ropes. If Crawford can benefit from that..well..

          Well I think Canelo has been on his mind for a few years and he is doing everything for that fight, kinda like Ray being away for years and focused on Hagler , there is strategic thinking from TC on this one, Im interested and hope he can do it, I,ll be watching.

            If Crawford defeats this version Canelo, that puts him in the lower tier of ATGs (Probably around 80-100s). Resume is very important and his record is still lacking great names to be up there.

                  It's a single great win that can be debated against any win in history. But it don't make you greatest if rest of resume was against bums mostly
                  For example of course buds win over Nel o would be greater than Floyd's best win. But that don't automatically make bud greater than floyd.

                    Floyd's best win was vs Corrales

                      It's a thing because his resume is nothing like Sugar Robinson, Ali, etc.
                      Yet he says, "Beating Alvarez Makes Me As Great As Sugar Robinson Henry Armstrong Ali"

                      Not realistic, not humble.
