Crawford is not on the same level as a Canelo

    This guy got hit countless times against Avanesyan, was getting his ass beat and dropped by Egis and struggled with one leg Benavidez.

    Just because this guy beat a Spence who had 0 resistance left due to the car crash, alcohol and inactivity doesn’t mean like @C.J. would say diddly squat.

    Forget 168, if they were the same size Canelo puts him out, Crawford gets hit too easily.

    I agree. Crawford has talent, he's a great fighter but Canelo is a different beast still at this point of his career. Crawford only thinks it's a winnable fight now because he saw how tall Charlo was to Canelo. I doubt it happens though.

    Canelos win over GGG > shell of Spence.

    Crawford hasn’t established himself as an ATG, never had a meaningful fight in his career.

    Yeah Canelos win over GGG is a better single win than Crawford over Spence, but I won't take credit from Crawford, he did what he had to do. Spence showed heart but as of now you really have to question what Spence has left. I picked him to win, but IMHO and I've been saying this since his return with Danny Garcia that something was different. His eyes were different.

    No excuses but getting thrown from a vehicle at high speeds, it's a miracle he was still able to unify the division after all that. But i doubt buds serious about moving up to 168 to fight the winner of Canelo-Charlo.

    Canelo lost 11 rounds, Bud did not.

    The way Spence reacted to Crawfords punches was just strange. Either Crawford is on some **** which I doubt or Spence has 10x worse resistance than basically the last 5 guys Crawford fought. You have to question what happened to the resistance.
    Against that goat? Floyd would’ve done the same to Bud.

    Crawford didn't fight the last 5 guys with a power jab. Avenesyan was knocked out cold with a single punch, Spence was not.

    lolno. canelo's record can be shredded as well. you want this to be the case because you're a fan of a particular fighter, or set of fighters and could care less about the sport. if crawford puts up any kind of fight it undermines your agenda.

    Don't forget Dmitry Bivol beat Canelo's ass he hardly won a round yet Gingers judges made out it was a close fight ROFLMAO Even those reprobates dare not give him a draw lol . If Crawfords wise & the fights at 168, he'll insist on a rehydration limit because if not Ginger would be coming in fight night at 180. . He was coming in a175 when he fought GGG at supposedly 160.

    GGG kicked Gingers ass TWICE after waiting years but got robbed Heck at over 40 GGG nearly beat the Ginger freak again ,would have if he'd started to FIGHT earlier Ole Ginge was out on his feet gasping for breath at the end
