Crawford, the best of this generation of fighters.Comment

Misleading title - we got just 2 observations about the Crawford-Canelo FIGHT itself - rather than the card.
Here's some more:-
Canelo's Prime
was probably when he beat Saunders and Plant or even earlier during GGG 2. - as such, we had a past peak prime Crawford beat a past best Canelo. Should Canelo have done more cardio or was he at 100% of his potential for this fight?
Rising Tide
A rising tide lifts all boats. How much does this win improve the reputation of Madrimov and even Spence, Porter and Postol? Now we know they were in there with an ATG.
A New Era at 168
I'm not sure what Bud will do now but I don't think he is going to sit and hog all the belts at 168 as Canelo has done for 4 years since he beat Plant. That means excellent fighters such as Mbili, Martinez, Igelsias and Pacheco will get their rightful opportunity to fight for a title.
Future for Crawford
I'd like him to retire now unbeaten and healthy - but heck - even if he isn't in his absolute prime his level of fitness is off the chart - if he can get a huge paycheck off Turki for some preposterous matchup he can make the decision whether it's legacy or bank account.
Future for Canelo
He should retire a very rich man. Maybe fight an exhibition with Mayweather or Jake Paul.Comment
