    Whats the point of staying at 168? Bud dethroned the best smw out there in Canelo, might as well cut 8 pounds and try to conquer another division and another undisputed record,as for the Ginger he already undisputed 2x at smw maybe go for a third run on a highly lucrative Crawford rematch or against any of the top contenders if the later decides to vacate. Maybe Turki throws cash at him and lures him into a fight with Benny once he gets his ass whooped at 175 lol. One thing is certain, TC needs to keep himself active, cant have a champion of his caliber fighting once a year.

      wbc has a strong pro-Mexican bias

      I see Saul-Diego in the near future

      let Diego rack up additional experience with 2 more fights first

        they're going to have him fight for the vacant crown against somebody dangerous, like Ryder, Fielding, Yildirim, Charlo, Munguia, Berlanga, Scull, or Khan. You know? The usual suspects.

          Now Mbilli is the guy !
          At 168? Did you see how many punches Mbilli threw vs Martinez..Canelo would only throw one puch at time which Crawford would counter. It harder to counter combinations.

            A rematch of Mbilli-Martinez has been ordered so Mbilli is occupied at the moment.

              Crawford beats anyone at super middleweight, so why not match Canelo vs Sheeraz.

                This is what you write - “I want to see how he performs vs some who actually is active throwing punches.”

                Those were your words. You are literally suggesting that all 42 guys Bud beat weren’t “actively throwing punches”. So what exactly were they doing?

                How many guys does Crawford need to beat for YOU to give him his props?

                  Mbilli has unfinished business with Martinez.

                    I give him props for beatinf Canelo. But lets be honest if Canelo wasn't holding the titles hostage and actually fought Benavidez or Morell, Crawford wouldn't have become undisputed.

                      No one will fight Bakhram Murtazaliev. Not even Bud on his way down. Would be a great fight. Just not during Ramadan.
