    I've said that I'd like to see Crawford retire Canelo, but in reality, I doubt that happens. People talk about Canelo not stopping Scull, but William ran around most of the fight. We know that Canelo fights flat-footed and hates chasing people around. Let's not forget that Crawford barely beat Madrimov last year at 154. He since has spent the last year bulking up to fight two weight classes above that, and he's never fought at this weight (168). Alvarez started fighting @ 168 seven years ago. And Bud is nearly 38, while Canelo is nearly 35. So, we have a considerably smaller, slightly older and not as active fighter, whose power hasn't apparently moved up with him to even 154, vs a naturally bigger, slightly younger, more active fighter, whose power is likely greater than his opponent's. I'm brought back to the old saying, "A good big man beats a good small man every time". Canelo by close decision.
    Never even crossed my mind that Bud could retire Canelo or knock him out
    But I do believe he will outbox him and get a decision victory ( his only way of winning imo )
    Madrimov is night and day compared to Canelo who is very stationary and not as mobile as Madri was
    Expect Bud to be in and out all night

        Benny will never get the fight
        Bivol didn’t and won’t as I recall Canelo dragging his feet for the rematch
        Turki knows both guys are on their way out
        If anything , once Bud wins and it’s a financial success maybe and big maybe , a rematch between the two
        Agreed, Cinnamon still has nightmares about Bivol, especially since he beat Beterbiev. And he pees himself at the thought of facing Benavidez. Crawford realizes that he's nearly 40 and only really has one big payday vs Spence. This fight is a retirement check for him, especially if it's hard and/or he loses.

          That’s pretty much my thinking

            Crawford's lack of superior power will embolden Canelo to come after him. And Bud's not exactly known to be so fleet of foot to be in and out like Mayweather was vs Alvarez. Add to that the facts that he's moving up 14 lbs and he's nearly 38, and I just don't see him outboxing Alvarez with sticking and moving.

              Have you seen the cement blocks of Canelo recently ???
              Bud doesn’t have to be that fluid vs this version of Canelo imo

                Canelo has never been very fleet of foot, and Bud likes to stand his ground and fight more than move away.

                  High risk low reward fight
                  This one might just be the one that broke the camel’s back
                  Lose his chit? Don't pull anything reaching.

                  Canelo doesn't seem bothered at all. As skilled as Bud is, I'm struggling to see how he's going to fair better at a higher weight against a far better opponent than Madrimov, who he couldn't hurt.

                    Not this time after what I saw in the Madrimov fight
                    Plus , I’m pretty sure he knows he ain’t knocking him out

                      I don’t think he’ll hurt Canelo either but will outbox him
