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

    None of those fighters moved up two divisions to do so though. If Crawford does that it Trump's all those other fights. It seals his legacy WAR T-Bud!

          That's the real boogeyman in the division. What's the difference in Bud fighting either?
          canelo fans dont call him a boogeyman they call him a nobody and that noone knows him he cant do a ppv etc, canelo on the other hand is known and can do a ppv & turki is onboard lots and lots and lots of reasons to pick canelo over benny for bud

          one of the reasons i laugh at floyds remark is that he would never even consider that choice himself it would be canelo every day of the week also so he has his reasons for that remark and they are not good ones for bud i would say

              if TBud goes life and death as he 7-5's Saul and maybe TBud gets knocked down too

              that's nowhere near as impressive as Floyd 11-1'ing Saul and Bivol 10-2'ing Saul

              HOW you won is almost as important as the win itself plus WHEN you won

              between these three Saul opponents

              Floyd faced a Young Strong Saul

              Bivol's Saul was Prime Saul

              TBud's Saul is Past Prime who looked awful in the fight before TBud faced him

                Hmmm, I dont know man. If Floyd-Canelo was at 154 then maybe but 152 is still 152. Canelo was clearly depleted he needed a chair on the stage right before the weigh-in because he was unable to stand. Plus he only rehydrated to 165 showing how drained he still was. Against Trout he was 174 on fight night 5 months prior to Mayweather.

                    have you ever seen Saul offline in the flesh

                    Saul must be built like a tank to walk around at a fit 185 pounds at only 5 ft 7!

                      , I can't see. I think privilege has been taken from me, they won't let me. Who voted floyd?
                      Nel o is also a pfp top 6 still. When floyd fought nelo, Nel o was considered by some a future top ten pfp, or even in the top ten just about, but once he's drained what's left?
