    Yeah... a good welter has never stepped up and fought a legit middle and took his title....(rolls his fkn eyes..)

    WTF are you all poo pooing the idea Crawford stepping up and fighing Canelo? What? Never been done? Listen dip shits, history is littered with welters punching the lights out of middles... i mean, ;ike... JUST FOR FUN!!

    Canelo hasn't fought at Middleweight since he stepped in with Danny Jake in 2019. Since then, he's been at Super Middle and Light Heavy.

    Yo, you and @Lesion of Doom are pretty much neighbors. You guys should get half-priced apps at Applebee's. Maybe even play footsies under the table.

    Crawford isn't with PBC, why is this being discussed?

    Its an obvious fight. Big $$, big interest. Bud is 35, Canelo about that. If bud wants a legacy, he has to step up. (all the greats did, except Hagler)

    You might be surprised what I'd be willing to do for half-priced apps!

    The mozzarella sticks are the best I've ever had. Especially if they come fresh out of the fryer!

    Bud grew into being a welter at 35. Canelo was a welter at 17. They're not the same size.

    The real reason I hate this fight and I hate people talking about tank vs Inoue is because it comes off like someone who only known 10 boxers by name making matches. There's so many good fights out there to be made people talking about bud canelo or Inoue tank just come off like casuals to me.

    I don't want to see matches made based on who is most famous I wanna see ranked contenders in a weight class get their shots at the champ even if they don't have a bunch of social media followers.
