If this fight would actually take place and Canelo wins, would y’all give him props for the win? Feel like many won’t. I’d like to see the fight actually but dunno if it’s worth it for Canelo.

However, Canelo has moved up plenty of divisions to fight bigger champions. When he lost to Bivol he made no excuses. If this fight were to happen and Bud loses, I don’t want to hear any excuses. Especially since bud and Canelo are a lot closer in weight and height than Canelo and Bivol.

Idiotic fight if it happens, can't blame Crawford for trying though, for Canelo it would be a bad look to accept a 147er as an opponent, even dragging up Charlo from 154 is questionable when he could have chosen Benavidez or a Bivol rematch instead.

Your logic is flawed because Bud would jump(!) three divisions while Canelo got time to adapt to his new weight class, he didn't just went straight to the best guy at 175 after his last fight at 154. The closes he's done to that is fighting that old alcoholic (still a good win lol) at 175 after beating Jacobs at 160 but even that is not the same as jumping from 147 to 168.

Fair to ask for no excuses if he already took the fight but the two situations are NOT the same and yes, it would be a win-win fight for Bud.
Canelo should never take a fight against a 147er though whatever how much he respects his skills.

:manny: Canelo beat 3 undefeated champions qt 168 to become undisputed and did it in a year on top of all the other big fights with quality names he gave us... and nikkas do nothing but bytch n complain... at this point why wouldn't he ignore yall an fight a jermell or Crawford willing to come up to 168?

I can't speak on how others viewed it but I always gave Canelo all the credit for becoming undisputed at 168.

He might care, he might not care, idk, all I know is he's moving funny lately with picking Jermell over Benavidez or the Bivol rematch? Will I hate him for it now and discredit his achievements? Nah, but if I see him moving funny rn I'm still gonna criticize it... :manny:

Man I thought Allen Green was gonna be that dude. I think he had to have like most of us intestines removed at some point smh

Too many changes in weight. I think he started at 168 and went to 175. Then back down to 168. Then to 160 :dahell: . Then back up to 168 where SOG smoked him and then he got his head taken off by that Jamaican Patty :heh:

But it really all started with the Miranda fight. He already was fighting like shyt but he took way too much punishment in the last round.

Ehhh. Canelo already said he's not that interested for the same reason bud said he's not too interested in tank. Cause people will say he was too small. But if bud keeps calling him out then it is what it is. You call somebody out and they say nah I'm good. You keep calling em out and they finally accept it's like aight. There's no excuses now. You wanted this. Basically begged for it.

I mean I already know bud won't make excuses after. He's not that type of dude. He's cut from a different cloth. If he takes on a challenge then he accepts what comes with it. The stans and haters will make excuses regardless. But they don't matter in the grand scheme of things. They don't even wanna give bud credit for beating Spence.

Either way I don't think canelo will take it next. I see it either being David or jermall. He'll probably tell bud to get a fight at 160-168 first.

Mike-Mike Oliver's from around your way lol. He had nice hand speed & I think he was trained by Ice man Scully at one point

Miranda put his foot in Green's ass that night & ruined him. If Pantera had the right trainer he could've done way more. He probably would've beat Jermaine Taylor had they fought

mike was definitely from around my way...he was a slick fighter light hitting...little power though..dude fought way past his prime though

miranda should have picked up a belt but always ran into a speed bump :francis:
