    Bud puts limitations on what he can do. He might have a little chance at beating Nell but wont try as he's not of that mould

      One shot and Crawford is down for the count...would be similar to Canelo Khan.

        Bud will need to get some good wins over names first.
        Because fighting big guys might shorten career, he wants some wins in bag first

            Clearly some of you guys create threads while you're Drunk which explains the influx of ****** threads immediately after a fight

              Crawford could definitely beat the current Golovkin. Golovkin is not a big middleweight and old.

              People always overestimate size. May seem ridiculous but fighter’s have done this move a few times.

                GGG is not as shot as Kovalev was when he fought Canelo.

                I don`t see any chance Crawford beats GGG.

                    Golovkin isn’t far off, he just has better fundamentals than Kovalev. He was also coming off beating Alvarez and the next hot prospect. Ofcourse Crawford has a chance, we’ve seen this already and this wouldn’t even be comparable to Roy Jones vs Ruiz, Bellew vs Haye and Spinks vs Holmes. The size differences there were much, much bigger than this would be. We’ve already seen Brook from 147 to 160 vs Golovkin, to give an idea what they’d look like side by side and, if he can last like he did vs a near prime Golovkin, Crawford can go the distance with this version of Golovkin. And if Steve Rolls is piecing him up Crawford can decision him. Crawford came in at 153/154 for 135lb fights, he’s at least 155/156 at 147, put on 5lb’s, give Golovkin 10lb’s (Golovkin has rarely been over 170) and he’s money.

                    Light middleweights weigh as much or more than Golovkin on the night, while being younger and longer.

                    This is always crazy before it happens because you imagine the guy bigger/stronger than he is, Crawford wouldn’t be fighting Beterbiev. An old man is about as perfect as it gets. Good odds for Golovkin too. Although obviously, why would you, as Crawford, take this risk.

                      If he's gonna go up again let it be against Jermell. Bud is my favorite fighter right now but that atmosphere would be electric.
