I'm inclined to agree as Crawford is probably one of the very FEW fighters on the planet who can beat Canelo at this stage of his career (5 years ago would've been a different story). However, you have to remember that this is for ALL the marbles as opposed to a single belt so if he has another close fight (like Madrimov), I don't think he'll get the decision. In other words, he has to beat him DECISIVELY in order to become undisputed champion and make history.

I'm with you, you know your boxing for sure. I'm a Nelo fan, and he hasn't look the same the past few years since the Caleb Plant fight. If he brings out that version it's an easy win for Canelo. I know Crawford is extremely and technically skilled, too, and I think Crawford could potentially beat him even if he's the huge underdog.

100%...Canelo is still a GREAT fighter who gave undefeated young guns like Munguia & Berlanga their first losses recently and beat the daylights out of Charlo. However, Crawford is an equivalent talent who's at the peak of his career. The ONLY thing that makes me lean slightly towards Canelo (bar the weight) is that he's undisputed champion and I doubt they'll give Crawford the decision if he has another close fight like Madrimov. He has to beat him convincingly.

history has taught us you must win at least 9 rounds to get the decision over Saul

Bivol 9-3 Saul and was ruled 115-113

Floyd 11-1 Saul and was ruled one draw card rofl

they don’t protect Saul as much these days so maybe 8 rounds gets the decision

But boxing is about money There still potential big fight in the pipeline for Saul-David

TBud only other big fight is rematch

[SouthpawRight]

TBud wins and we definitely get a rematch

get roi on Saul as he goes out with a ****

Saul-TBud

TBud-Saul

Saul-David

Saul-David

David-Saul

And the fact he hasn’t fought in a year
Ring rust will be a detrimental factor in the fight imo

[gauze]

Saul most durable guy in boxing today

only time I remember him being hurt was as a weight drained big boy squeezing down to 147 facing Jose Cotto

but he weighed 150...

I know the ignorant casuals are eating this up, just like they did with Tyson vs Paul, but honestly this shiet is lame as hell.

I enjoyed it. Very cordial for the most part but I like the little jabs from Bud and Nelo.

I kind of roll my eyes whenever I see Ring Magazine owner Rick Reeno. He looks like a parking lot owner, dressed either as a golfer (like last night) or like a RUN DMC reject, who’s so unnecessarily extra wearing white gloves any time he has to whip out that custom made RING magazine belt when promoting this fight.

Like, dude…we get it. But no, he has to brag about how much there’s been spent on the belt and why it’s important. Dude, stop.

I’m glad the fight’s large…but at the same time what comes with it is a bunch of people making decisions about the entire process who rarely have a hand in the business.

I like seeing Rosie Perez as a fan ringside…just…not as a commentator nor when they try to shoehorn in celebrities (who probably ARE fans) as blow by blow or color commentary.

It’s kind of like how they randomly dropped Nate Campbell and Ray Mancini in to the broadcast of Adrien Broner’s PPV bout by Don King.

Just…please stop.

Get Lampley in there, he was great in New York.

Get Kellerman probably in there. I like Larry Merchant, but he’s waaaaaaaaaaayyy too old to be ringside at this point.

Just put in any mix of Lampley, Kellerman, Roy Jones, Tarver, and Bernstein.

That would be perfect.

I wrote this either yesterday and who shows up announced as one of the guys from the broadcast team for this fight? Max Kellerman…

I feel like the Robin Williams Jumanji meme is appropriate here: “WHAT YEAR IS IT?!”

This is perfect. If Dana White is at the Las Vegas press tour stop and reveals that Lampley is going to be on that broadcast team I will LOSE.MY.SHHHHHHHH

What's past a dead horse's bones? Cause you've been beating it forever probably dust now
