    What’s next for Bud

    What’s the boss man bud going to do next ? Call it a day ? I think he will have a couple of more, he looked so good. He talked about 160, Who’s he going to fight there, wouldn’t think it would be Janibek..Hard to find a big name for him after this… will he just chase titles, tough one. Maybe a Charlo.

    Is Tank still retired lol? He doesn't deserve it but I think that's a good fight for both of them

      He should go to 160. Canelo was a perfect opponent at 168, but it could get risky to start defending belts vs bigger stronger rangier opponents. I mean bivol could fight at 168, that would be a disaster for Crawford. I just hope he doesn't go out like Roy after he bulked up and tried to drop back down after.

        Apparantly he wants to be at 160 which is a good weight for him. I think he really has to push himself to be at 168 because he's a much smaller man. So he could face Lara and Janibek with the latter being the more interesting fight. I wish he would go back to 154 because that division is so competitive right now and I really want to see him against Boots at 154 or 160. People talk about how he doesn't have many significant wins and I think a W against Boots, Ortiz Jr, or Murtazaliev would cement his legacy.

          I hope they both retire.

          Crawford on top and carnela with his head down for being exposed as the mediocre fighter he is. He might fight another euro bum though to go out on a win. But then again that might make his idiot fans think hes back again

            hopefully he vacates everything soon if he doesn't plan to fight mandatories (and we know he doesn't).

              Eubank jnr
              Jermall

              That's his list. Comfortable wins and marketable fights. Now it's cash out time.

                Boots is the only fight for bud, it looks like he's dodging him cause on paper boots size and speed and hunger makes the fight all risk no reward. Canelo was never the best @ 168 which is why he dodged morrell jr and 109% dodged benavidez

                  If it was up to me he would retire - perfect way to go out. But we know fighters are not built that way, so he'll at least wait and see what offers come in. I don't see the 160lb fights as particularly appealing. Will Turki make an offer for him to defend against Sheeraz?

                    Fighting that overrated Uk guys like Benn, Eubank jr., Sheerez is a great idea.
