    How is running even an option for Bud; Who has 37 year old legs; While fighting much heavier at 168 on a 135 lbs frame?

    It would reduce his stamina. He will probably move but not run due to his age and by carrying around that much weight on his smaller frame.

      Apparently Timothy bradley shared secret with bud that will lead to Nel o downfall?

        GGG beat a prime Canelo, at least once.
        The Canelo now is a deteriorated version of his former self.
        And to be honest is not a P4P top 10 guy anymore.

          More difficult than the GGG of the 3rd meeting.

          Canelo is not the same Canelo though, he has certainly slipped. I give Crawford a very good chance to defeat this silk pajama Canelo.

            You're forgetting Rigo! Arum hated his guts and trashed him the whole time he was promoting him

              Golovkin slaughtered Canelo in sparring in LA, he was a level beyond Canelo. It's so clear GGG played soft on Canelo, the punch pulling and pushing is most obvious in the third fake fight.

                LOL.. @ sparring.. and no he didn't.. sparring is sparring.. GGG must have went 100% during sparring while canelo 60%... because when it matters the most when they fought, GGG came up short....... twice!!

                  The sparring destruction, which is well documented, is why Canelo stalled and ducked Golovkin for so many years. He waited until Golovkin was at the end and older and needed to cash out. $25m a fight to take the L vs Canelo is a lot smarter than $1m for beating the Willie Monroes of the boxing world. It's so obvious GGG had to play soft to fight Canelo. There is no way the establishment was going to let their cash cow franchise lose to an Eastern European who was in the final chapter of his career. Shame on you for falling for the deception.

                    bro... they fought 3x, and GGG couldnt get a win at all... sparring is just that, sparring!! fights are won in the ring in an actual fight... imagine Khan saying he beat Manny because he had the better exchange during their sparring sessions lol.

                      Indeed it is. If bud was a natural middleweight wouldn't even be a debate
