If Crawford moves up 2 divisions and beats Canelo will it be a better win than Mayweather's 2013 win over Canelo?

    He didn't "want" 150 but he did say he would fight at 150.

    So his words were used against him, and they negotiated 152.

      Of course it is, how is this even a question. Mayweather beat a drained baby Canelo at catchweight of 152.

            That quote was from a few years before when Canelo had just left 147 and could easily make 150. At the time the fight was made Canelo was past that point and would struggle to make 154 and would be and was drained at 152. Don’t fall for the Floyd propaganda.

              Prior to David moving to 175, why not?

              That's the real boogeyman in the division. What's the difference in Bud fighting either?

                Yes a much better win. Canelo was drained at a catchweight for Floyd and only 23 years old.

                  Thank you bro. I'm so tired of that dumb azz narrative

                  The 23 old is supposed to beat the 36 year old 9 times out of 10

                    Floyd is on a whole other level

                    Floyd’s top performances PBF-Diego $ May-Juan TBE-Saul makes Saul’s best showings forgettable

                      Bud beating Canelo wont be anything new. Other than the weight discrepancy, he would join a ling list consting of Floyd, Lara, Trout(maybe), GGG X2, and Bivol
