Comments Thread For: Saul ?Canelo? Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford official for September 12

Crawford will be 1 year older than Floyd at 37 difference is Canelo is not 23 anymore either. He's 35 and If anything has a lot more wear and tear on his body than Crawford does who didn't even move up until he was about 30. Bud is aging similar to Floyd who was a bit slower at 37, 38 but still looked good against Manny regardless of the excitement level of the fight.

If the fight was tomorrow, would you pick Bud?

I’m not saying it’s impossible, I just think the deck is stacked against him.

Good to see it's in the States and not the Empire. Should be a cracker.

Thoughts on undercard, let's see some real ambition so how about:

Benevidez v Smith
Tank v Lomochenko
Boots v Benn
Eubank v Adames
Janibek v Lara

Canelo will win a boring decision that some on here will complain about but I'll just be happy the fight is over, hope I'm wrong but the last two nights have pissed me off and made me now expect the worst.

[A.B Counterhooks]

Bud winning chances sit at about 40% rn realistically speaking hes already bulked af, well rested, same ring IQ as Canelo if not higher and hungry to make a huge statement, Canelo better take him with all the seriousness in the world or a third painful loss coming his way.

One thing is certain, Terrence Crawford will not run whole fight for dear life like Scull did. He'll take the fight.

Why do you feel so threatened by Terrance "Bud" Crawford?

**** Bud, and **** yo ansistahs!!

[JakeTheBoxer]

This fight is sh.it.

But Canelo is now where Mayweather was fighting McGregor and he doesn't care what we think

I can only imagine what would people say if Bivol fought 2-3 divisions smalller guy.

Again. Canelo fighting Crawford is trash.

[Lefty0616]

Haney and Garcia looked so bad, they should fight each other on the undercard of Canelo VS Crawford.

[Phase III]

Bud by TKO.

TKO implies that you actually believe a fight will break out when Canelo and Crawford meet in September. Given the lack of action in Canelo and Crawford recent fights, that sounds like a big ask. Both fighters skills have clearly diminished and both seem to be just interested in the bag.

[Phase III]

I can't wait. And I'm hoping that the fans will be in for a real treat!

You probably didn’t see Crawford’s fight against Madrimov where he struggled at 154. Also you may not have seen Canelo v Skull which turned out to be worse than a sparring match. Lately, these fighters know they can get away with posing and avoiding anything that resembles a fight. I expect another jab and run boring fight. Both just are fighting for the Turki bag, where a real fight is not expected. I call this an appearance fee. Just show up and make believe you’re in a fight.

You mean a zzzQuil treat?
