      and by a pure stroke of boxing luck, canelo was ready to step up at the right time.


      floyd, haymon and company decimated this sport. hbo, sho completely imploded under their watch .

      thankfully canelo quickly pivoted and brought the sport to the future with streaming. and now back on the biggest platform.




      so Floyd was so good he beat great fighters wide while doing the bare minimum in the ring to win

      wow

        Why would I even ask such a foolish question when the obvious answer is Joe Mesi.

              What grade they put U back this year?
              GGG was like 40 in the 3rd fight, you sausage.

              You got breastfed by your Dad. That’s why you so dumb, kid.

                The question should be, "has Crawford EVER fought an elite fighter"?

                  No. They robbed GGG and Lara. Everyone else was faded.

                    I had Austin 114-113 and Erislandy 113-113

                    add 2 draws and 2 losses from these fights Austin Erislandy ggg1 ggg2 to Saul's record and he's no longer all time

                      Cotton was old and shopworn.
                      Both GGG fights were controversial.
                      Jacobs wasn’t elite and was still a close fight.
                      Munguia, Saunders, Berlanga far from elite.
                      Those were his best opponents.

                      Funny to hear him **** on Bud’s resume but what elite fighter has Canelo clearly dominated?
                      What "elite" fighters were there for him to fight
                      Bonus question, how in the fck did Nelo rise to p4p/FOB without a ton of quality wins ???
                      LOSERS dont get rewarded to this extent.
                      Neither do unproven boogeymen
