Canelos tells Crawford be has no elite fighters on his resume.

[pretty boy_]

if TC was fighting for legacy he would have stayed and cleaned out the WW division... instead he chose to move up to fight canelo so that if he takes an L, it will be worth it. dont be fooled by this fighting for legacy crap.

Yes, this is a legacy fight for Bud. Bud already whooped Spence at WW so there's nothing else to prove there. Only ones left is Barrios and Norman. Canelo's scalp does 10x more for his legacy than Barrios's and Norman's.

He's RIGHT...Spence is the only elite fighter Crawford has ever faced whereas Burns & Postol are nothing special at all.

Meanwhile, Canelo has faced GGG (thrice), Bivol, Mayweather, Cotto, Mosley & Kovalev who are all elite fighters.

How many of them were fought when they were under the age of 35? What were the results?

I mean Jake Paul has a win against Mike Tyson on his resume if we are just gonna look at names blindly, but you have to take into account age.

it's a cash grab, if he wins then it would be a + to his legacy... but this is a cash grab first and legacy second.

I like Bud, but even if he wins there needs to be some context added to it. This isn't prime Canelo he's going up against- it would be a good win for sure, but not like he beat a younger version.

Just like Canelo’s wins vs Cotto , Mosley , Kovi and let’s not forget the ageing GGG

He lost to bivol and mayweather. Mosley and kovaleve weren't elite when he fought them but shot.

The thing is, all but Bivol were 35 or older, that was the point I was making. Lots of big names, not fought in their primes (ergo the Jake Paul Mike Tyson comparison)

it's not prime canelo but still a damm good win if TC wins. just like manny beating oscar. that win broke him out to become a star even tho it wasnt the best version of oscar. i think it's more of having the name on his resume.
