As we are 1 Week Away from the Canelo vs Bud fight - I continue to see the rationale of Bud struggling with Madrimov at 154 or not putting on a masterpiece vs Madrimov as a reason why Canelo is going to steamroll through him!
Please remember some of the ATG's in this sport called boxing had what fans would call a subpar performance before some of their biggest career wins!
Who did Floyd fight right before he put on a masterpiece vs Diego Corrales?
Answer: Emmanuel Augustus! - Looking at that fight, Floyd called it his toughest fight in his career as Augustus touched him up often right before fighting the hardest hitter at 130 -Corrales.
Who did Sugar Ray Leonard fight before he moved up weight classes and came back after 3 years away from boxing to beat the most feared Middle Weight of the time aka Marvin Hager at 160?
Answer: Kevin Howard - who dropped Sugar Ray for the 1st time ever!
Imagine what people would be saying about Bud's chances vs Canelo if Madrimov actually dropped Bud like Howard dropped Sugar Ray lol smh!
As you can see, ATG's, which Bud is, have close fights and are capable of putting on once in a life time performances the very next fight!
Both Floyd and Sugar Ray were underdogs going into the Diego and Hagler fight - just as Bud is at the moment!
We will see 9/13!
Don't under estimate greatness!
