    Could Crawford have beaten GGG as well at 168?

    GGG was 35 when he fought Canelo the first time, same age as Canelo is now. If 38-year old Crawford fought a 33-year old GGG how does it go?

    Old version of Golovkin, very possibly

    Prime GGG around 2013 would punch holes in Bud and Canelo on the same night.

      It’d be at 160 which would be a better weight for TBud’s power

        Probably, but the only version we saw of 168 GGG was the old man version, in other words 168 GGG wasnt a good version of him. Whether you like his resume or opponents at the time, the best version of GGG was the early 2010's version of him, but that was at 160.

          Maybe an old shot version from Canelo 3 fight at 168.

          Don't be fooled. GGG fought and beat better version of Canelo at 160. He just got robbed.

            Old GGG?

            Fo sure

            Old GGG wasn't as good as Canelo is now.

            Now, 160 GGG brutalizes my man Bud

                All of u guys are hating at this point. canelo didn't even win 4 rounds vs Bud. Golovkin struggled from day one. All of these guys like Golovkin and Jacob's were not o the same level.i think the boxing community is in shock as understanble. Crawford is clearly a Henry Armstrong kinda fighter and when u have a Armstrong kinda fighter all u can do its just be silent and put him to the top thats it.
