    You're the biggest fanboy by far for supporting those two. Crawford's run at welter weight has been pathetic.

    Charlo needs to unify with Andrade in Feb/March and fight Plant in May to get the Canelo fight in September. What's the hold up? Why won't he announce those fights already? He'll be branded a coward if he doesn't. Wants all the reward, with little risk. The PBC mantra.
    1 and 2 is a flat out lie, Crawford was undisputed at 140, has been chasing EJ forever, and you have ZERO proof Charlo doesn't want to unify at 160. You know who never tried to unify or go for undisputed? Canelo, twice now he's ducked Andrade at 154 and 160 when he had a belt.


    3 and 4, nothing wrong with complaining that guys like Canelo or Spence duck you.

    The stuff I listed, however, like failing a drug test and making up your own weight class, is all FACTS. The stuff you listed, we can argue about all day - are you a boxing promoter? Did you personally read the contract that Bob Arum sent to EJ? Were you on the phone when Bud and Charlo made the call to their opponents? If not, then you have no business commenting. But, we do now that my stuff is facts. Canelo DID fail a drug test, and you can't say he didn't. Canelo DID make up his own weight class.

    The second Bud or Charlo fail a drug test or fight at a catch weight, I won't be their fan anymore. Unlike you canelo fans who continue to defend this disgraceful behavior.

      I'll post it again.

      He needs those fights or he's a coward that only wants a payday.

      Same for Crawford. Continuing to duck anyone with a pulse at 147. Everyone at 140 that he fought was B-C lister. No challenge whatsoever.

      What's their hold up with unifying. Until they mention unification, everything I've said is fact.

        You sound very anti-Mayweather. Not that I object, I strongly support you.

          Sounds like your thread is against Canelo. Ok, let's see. I'm still rolling with Canelo. I think he should stick to 160. I disconnected as a fan during his 155 times. Despite all that, Canelo is still one of the best fighters in the world and among my favorite fighters. They all should juice up.

          I'll skip his next fight.

            Kind of, but that one is so debatable some of the time. I mean take the AJ vs Wilder discussions on here, I think the majority have seen overtime it was wilder who was probably ducking but it has months and months of discussions accusing either way.

              One of the things I love about boxing is that the truth always comes to light. You can only be a hypocritical fanboy for so long until you expose yourself, which you just did see. You can't have it both ways, you can't say that PBC guys are all no risk, easy fights, duckers, and then say that Bud is ducking the PBC roster lmao. It's either one or the other.

                Mayweather never failed a drug test and he only did the things at the end of his career when he had nothing left to prove. Today you have guys in the prime of their career doing all that.

                  Except he did fail drug tests and was also caught with an IV with banned saline and vitamins, the same banned substances that Lance Armstrong was popped for. Only Mayweather did it better because he had the NSAC in his back pocket.

                      They're all ducking each other.

                      Already about the end of January and there's no word on Charlo's next move. No word on the Crawford/Spence unification everyone is waiting for.

                      February is almost here, Charlo should announce Andrade next and Plant in May to guarantee a Canelo fight in September. What's the hold up? Does he think he deserves that huge payday without putting in the work?
