    no matter how it turns out, inside the ropes that is it is good for boxing to make Boxing more available to sport fans in general. For that i am glad the fight has been made although they are not in the ring yet n tainted meat or locational problems could arise but beyound that good move on the part of Platforms and Promoters....and who would not want to see Saul get defeated?

      BS clenelo wasnt drained. He decided himself to come down a little liter because he wanted the mayweather fight that bad and thought his weight would be to much. Go back and look at the 24/7 broadcast. As far as your clenelo being young excuse. Mayweather was 36 and thats old as phuck for boxing. Tainted meat got his ass handed to him period. stop your excuse

        Alvared is strong and has a hell of a chin. He took shots from hitters in the lite heavy division. Crawford won't hurt him but he can very well win this fight. If anybody from 168 on down is capable of beat clenelo Bud Crawford is the man. If he can take clenelos punch this fight may very well be easy work. My opinion.

          Nahh, Bud gets touched much more than Floyd. Floyd could lose a sequence, and still not divert from the game plan. He'll keep the same pace

          Bud will lose a sequence and he'll want some get-back. His temperament is much different. He's a lot meaner than what Floyd was at the time that Canelo fought him. Against same sized fighters, it's an advantage for Bud. Canelo is much bigger, so idk how it'll play out
          Bud will see and handle everything Canelo throws. The question is, when Canelo takes his mid round breaks as usual, how will he handle Bud's smoke?

            If he keeps his temperament in check. He's a real fighter at heart, always wants his get-back

            But good point about the mid round breaks brotha, curious to see how this plays out.

              If Bud decides not to run for dear life twelve rounds like Scull did ,then we got ourselves a Real Superfight coming. Netflix cant afford to look bad again with the whole buffering/lagging thing. Lot watchers will tune in for this one.

                Most of us are Netflix users. Netflix is the king worldwide for on-demand entertainment, perhaps Amazon Prime next and let's say Disney+ last.... the point is many of us have these apps. The fact that I can just skim Netflix as a ''casual user'' is funny in that I get to watch Terence Crawford and Canelo. lol. The boxing market is drastically changing. New purses for prizefighters might yo-yo in an efficient protocol. The Arabs have a hold of the game atm and we're just watching as good ole boxing fans. I think all of this is for the greater good. and let's be honest, the weight ''disparity'' is a paradox. Canelo could've kept on at 160 but drastically draining like the rest of the new generation do, or rather it's been like that for a long time. There are many boxers to name that moved up in weight such a Hearns or Duran or SRL from a time not so long whom are good examples to cite. I mean Charley Burley was an old school yo-yo GREAT. Point is Crawford going from 135-168 or Canelo from 140-175 is relatively just a weight class apart when averaging the two.

                  Only people making excuses will be those of you claiming Bud wins. Watch how you use the weight jump excuse for the L

                    Wont be no excuse here. I don't do that. Lets hope you don't make any when clenelo takes that L. i guarantee you that if it goes the distance Terence Bud Crawford will clearly win this fight

He had experience and was a champion. He beat Austin trout. He just wasn't going to beat Floyd regardless below 154lbs. Canelo is going to win because Crawford isn't Floyd and his best win is Spence who best wins are Keith Thurman leftovers and ugas.
                      Nice try, but Canelo was struggling to make 154 at that time but Froid still needed it at 152 to further drain him. Pathetic.
