He didn't come up for a run at 168lbs he came up for a super-fight against Canelo and an attempt at making history, which was achieved. The logical thing to do now would be to move down to 160lbs, pick up a title and become a six division champion.
with Crawford's high boxing IQ and strength it's hard to imagine him not holding his own at 168lbs.
Well Nelo beat some long arm 6ft plus 168 guys. Bud best someone his own dimensions.
If Nel o and bud retire today. Nel o goes down as the greater 168 guy
He's legit. But at same time, he did just jump 3 weight divisions. He'll always be the underdog any legit fighter at 168. Same way that Usyk was the underdog until he hurt Fury and KOd Dubois.
If he can`t defend his belts at 168 against top 10 contenders, than i guess he is not?
Will so called undisputed 168 champ just run away?
The only reason he is undisputed is because the ABC's allowed Canelo to duck Benavidez for 3 years. If they enforced mandatories on Canelo, then he would never have been undisputed and neither would Bud.
Hes the direct beneficiary of boxing corruption, Undisputeds are a nice to have but there is so much politics involved in who gets allowed to keep belts and ranking games that it just doesnt mean as much as you think
