    Not effing wait for Ramirez to properly acclimatize to a new weight.
    That will take years.

    See how fckd up this sport is?
    There's Porter, Thurman, Spence, Ugas, even Lipinets will do.
    But Haymon won't allow them to fight Crawford.

    Worst sport in the world.
    Don't blame the sport, blame Crawford, or Arum if you must, or both.

    I say it's Crawford because he straight up admitted he's pricing himself out of fights.

    Crawford is a tremendous fighter but Crawford hasn't fought anybody lately with the skills and the caliber of Jose Ramirez," Garcia told Alexander.

    Mikey isn't wrong. Kavaliauskas is close, and we saw what he was able to do before he gassed.

      This is not a fight we will see anytime soon if ever. Ramirez has 2 more fights at 140 then another fight at 147 if not 2 in order to feel the weight and get used to it. Were talking summer of 2023 best case cause 2020 is shot for big fights at any weight

        Crawford is undefeated on the internet. Every possible future fight he can make his fans give him the edge over everybody at 147 without him even beating anybody notable in haha

        Crawford starting to be overrated at this point. He’s in his 30’s and best wins are over Gamboa,postol,Horn and maybe khan thats nothing. He unify the 140lb titles against Indoungo hahahaha

          Crawford is undefeated on the internet and in the real world. Crawford hasn't have a single close fight in his entire career from 135, undisputed at 140, and now at 147.

          He battered Horn who went life and death with Pacman and then stopped a few more solid opponents. Benavidez and Kavaliauskas are no less an opponent than Danny Garcia or Shawn Porter. The Khan fight was bad lol XD

          But Crawford cant force these guys to fight. Danny Garcia passed on a career high payday of $4m + PPV to fight Crawford. Instead he fought Granados for $1m flat on basic cable.

          Crawford has literally done everything you can ask a fighter to do. That is why hes Top 3 PFP in the world and the #1 Welterweight.

            Haymon isn’t allowing his quality fighters fight Bud cuz his matchmakers are telling him(including Floyd) that Bud would probably beat them all and then Top Rank will have full control at 147, it’s bad business to allow your competitors to control all the chess pieces on the board!

            Just ask Hearns, when Ruiz beat down AJ and PBC had all the belts at heavyweight and you saw both Bob and Hearns doing literally everything they could to keep Wilder-Ruiz from happening!

            I honestly feel Bud is the creme de la creme at 147 but every style has a kryptonite and I feel someone like Shawn Porter could beat Bud!

            Not sure why PBC don’t just make that happen!

                Garcia is basically a free agent; why doesn't he fight Crawford?

                  Why the hate on Bud

                  Crawford for one doesn’t have to match you in size or strength because his talent is so over the top. Bud is great at boxing, punch with bad intentions and has a mean streak about himself. These are all the things to make you great! The factors that not just make champions but Hall of Famers, got take that haters!

                    I don't see any 140er beating Crawford, Porter, Garcia, Thurman, Pacquiao and Spence all 5 of them have a chance of beating him although I'd pick Crawford over all of them based solely on skills.

                    At 154 I don't know, there are a lot of strong, big , good fighters in there. Only 154 I'd pick to lose via stoppage to Crawford is Texeira, he is all taylor made for him.

                      You don't compare Benavidez and Kavalosks to Garcia and Porter.

                      That's all I will say about your comment.
