Hard to see that w/o Jermell taking a tune up firsr, he hasn’t been active for 1,5 years now and counting
Still rumors of a Spence card in spring so maybe he does a comeback as co main. Bud in general seems.to be set on fighting once a year so if Mell returns before June them it is possible especially with Mell being champ In recess for WBA (He has the status with WBC too so he can get Fumdora also). This all assumes Mell isn't doing 160. But he has been.posting training videos so I assume a come back is imenent

You think Crawford got cold feet?

Hearing rumors that Canelo turned down $75 million

Even if it's some "negotiation ploy" to have Turki shell out more money, it should be a sign to Crawford and his team to look elsewhere. 154 is very active and he's still a WBO interim champion, and a WBC mandatory as well. Literally 2 fights away from Undisputed at 154

Yea not sure why people think Crawford would be the one to block the fight, if he did I'll eat that crow and Crawford would be a bytch ass nikka given that he's been begging for this fight for the last two years. More likely this is just Canelo playing games with a promoter/platform again, using a situation as leverage to get more money like he's been doing the last couple years

I’m hearing he’s in talks to fight Jake Paul since there’s more money in that :francis:

Let’s hope it’s just warm up before the Crawford fight.

the Canelo fight with bud wasn't gonna be until Sept, if anything this may be a negotiation flex to get Paul in May and 100Ms or some crazy shyt and then telling Turki beat it.

Used to be, boxers would wait until the end of their careers to do these type of exhibitions

(I know this fight counts, but Point is Canelo shouldn't be doing this right now even though it's a easy payday)
