    It is even funny. I am not even Canelo`s fan, but Callum is another tough fight.

The LDBC hate Crawford because they feel hes ducking Spence and pledged allegaince to Arum....yet they pick him over Bud because hes black. The LDBC miss black figures as the defacto, hence Mayweather. They dont like Canelo #1 because hes Mexican and his complexion goes against their daily life
      And yet the NSB forums continue to be dominated by threads asked Floyd to "dare to be great like Crawford".

        Canelo - You get a big payday and get robbed, no matter if you win the fight 7-3-2 rounds.

        Bud - You get the breaks beaten off of you for less pay and get stopped for the 1st time in your career (why PBC big 4 won't fight him!). 6-0-6kos above 140

        I mean the formula here is pretty simple.

          It is not fair comparison, Crawford is still waited to fight top 147 guys.

            I think it's a let down for everyone when these figters take soft touches instead of the mega fights we want.

            Some fans voice their dissatisfaction about the fighter's choice of opponent(s), while still remaining a supporter or fan of the fighter.

            I didn't like Canelo fighting Smith and I didn't like Bud fighting Brook.

            Both guys are still in pretty much everyone's top 5 p4p though.

                I'm not sure why this is eluding people.

                Why are so many NSB posters down on Smith after ONE bad performance despite him still being highly ranked and highly rated? Why?

                    As you say Smith is rated the number 1 168 pound fighter in the world by all major rating places. Brook was a cherry pick who was rated at 154 and not rated at 147 because he had not fought at 147 for almost 4 years.

                      Who said Canelo is fighting a Cherrypick? I am a known Canelo hater but that is top tier cop.
