Bud just might DO it

[NarcosMaidana]

Have a 7 am flight to Vegas to go to the fight. Have Canelo by UD.

what a load of cow dung.. name one fighter who exhibits this trait?

"We've heard boxers over the years say they're going to win but there's always a small element of FEAR in their voice".

Finally, someone gets it! What do you mean that Bud just might do it? He is going to do it. Bud said his strategy is to start early and win every round.

That’s what I have been saying for these past few weeks. The reason being is that he is the hungrier of the two and wants it a lot more.

I respectfully disagree. Canelo has more to lose here so he's the one who's going to be fighting at an intense level. The excuses are in for Bud when he loses, "I went up two weight classes", "he was the bigger guy", "I have never fought at 168". As for Canelo, what is he going to say if he loses? The critics will criticize Canelo for losing to a smaller guy! This is why this fight is more important for Canelo.

In addition, I’ve noticed some slippage in Canelo’s game. He no longer possesses the same type of upper body movement or reflexes he used to have against overachieving and overmatched opponents.

Which is not a good thing going into a Crawford fight.
I’m noticing that after all the wear and tear of a 20 year boxing career; He is finally slowing down and showing signs of aging and decline.

I think Bud might be catching him at the right time.

huge hit to Saul’s legacy if he doesn’t win under these circumstances

[PinkGod]

no you trolliterate

the point is Alvaroid is better defensively than Madrimov

I take it you been watching boxing long enough to know defense consists of more than just mobile moving around the ring

Saul is a Slique White Chocolate

the closest you’ll get to a White James Toney

Ranking defense Floyd > Pernell > James > Bivol > Saul > TBud > Naoya

Defense wasn’t the problem with Madrimov…his lateral movement was (and if I’m being honest it wasn’t really a problem, I had Bud winning 9-3). At some point in the fight, Bud will make AlvaRoid open up and when he does, Bud will make him pay.

[niceyboo3]

if he as good at wrestling as these TBuddies say

he can go into ufc after this if Saul wins wide

I'm sure he doesn't want those cauliflower ears. He has too much money to get those now.

Bomac is that you

[hugh grant]

Bud has given himself the chance by taking fight boxers don't ordinarily take. Floyd couldve best ggg but didn't dare risk it. So bud has everything to gain and little to lose. It's good to see that bud cares about his leacy, rather than zero

[YOU WILL LOSE]

crawford has bought the lie that canelo is a dirty fighter,, . they think that canelo is aging, AND that he will be clean. a double whammy. thats where they think they can win.

but its all been a lie , canelo has baited turki and crawford. they tried to intimidate him with the fake positive test of munguia. in saudi but the truth came out. canelo outsmarted them and then went out and took a dump in the middle of the ring in saudi for the way he was treated.

if you listen to interviews from canelo about the push from the first press conference, he straight out says that he thinks turki told crawford to get in his face, so he knows that is going on. he knows all is not waht it seems when it comes to that guy. look at how he went off on dana white and max and turki yesterday.

look at crawford face during that exchance. he looks lost and scared see canelo get like that. it started to get real for crawford in that mooment

its a miscalculation of the highest order, !

crawfords confidence is coming from lies he's been told and believes, !

[HisExcellency]

This aged well…told you there was something in the water and I smelled an upset.

Congr@ts Bud…you’ve proven yourself to be a PHENOMENAL fighter and arguably the best of your era. Simply incredible achievement.
