    Dude come on now. Floyd took Canelo's 0. Floyd didn't even run from Canelo he literally schooled him. Canelo was an undefeated champion and the fight took place at 152lbs and canelo rehydrated to almost super middleweight. How can you give Crawford more credit for beating a old canelo that already lost to Floyd, drew with GGG, lost to Bivol and ducking the Mexican monster. Look at the names on Crawford resume then look at the resume of the others. You are just going off fake inflated accomplishments. He became undisputed twice fighting bums. No disrespect but I an sick of ppl shading Hopkins. I get the Floyd hate but that man is 50-0. Crawford over Sugar Ray Leonard anf Hagler? Nahhh. Listen i dont even think a prime Crawford could even beat a GGG at 160 or winky wright at 154lb. Let alone have a better career to those hall of famers.
    Dude I'm not saying he beat any of those great fighters like Leonard, Hopkins, Winky Wright in there youth which is unfair to say anyway, what I'm simply saying is his accomplishment will surpass theirs and you can be mad all you want, the guy was a 135 pound fighter and to go up and beat a guy who's been given everyone hell and much bigger fighters than him would be incredible, don't tell me what Floyd did becasue timing is everything and he beat a baby and don't mention age Crawford is the one turning 38, so before you come for me know what the hell you talking about, I have been in and around the sport for 45 years myself and still only 15 pounds over my last fight weight.

      Good fights for Crawford at 140--Duran Pacquiao Pryor Mayweather & more. Hagler too tough at 160. Robinson takes any fighter at 147. We're talking in their prime.

        Canelo hasn't looked good in years. A Crawford win would not surprise me. He's physically stronger through the core than Canelo due to his wrestling background.

            LOL!! I remember how many on here where saying after they saw Spencer wreck I had walking him down with power. Once Crawford proved them wrong, all the excuses about car crash etc came out of the same people. Many live vicariously through their fav athletes, so they're looking for anyone or anything to bring Bud down.

            Canelo is 5'8. Yes he's big and strong, but Crawford does things intelligently. Look at how he moved up in weight. There was a plan in place to do it right to make sure he had power and body mass to be effective. Bud is 5'8 and he's been adding weight and strength the right way. The man could deadlift 400lbs in street clothes 3 years ago..

            Canelo is Bud's last opponent. If or when he wins, the same people will say he needs to fight Benavides, Bivol and anyone much much bigger in hopes they'll finslly get their "lick back" like Charlo called it.

              You can't make another fighter fight you if they choose not too.

                They don't support Donaire because they hate Rachel. And Rachel doesn't give AF.

                    That is true especially when you price yourself out.
