    Well then you officially care more about watching youtubers and part-timers fight than watching legitimate unified undisputed world champions fight. What does that say about you and your credibility as a boxing fan? :deal:

    Costano and Harris ?Lets start with Harrison. He has been KO by Willie Nelson, Jarret Hurd, and Tsyzu. Man are you stupid. Charlo is such a power puncher he couldn’t even stop Rosado , who trades punches with everyone. People are laughing at your dumb ass. Canelo has faced Kovalev, GGG, Kirkland, Bivol, Ryder, Plant. Yet you are going to say Charlo who has never beat anyone above 154 is some how the most powerful puncher he has faced. LMAO

    Shadow the village idiot says “Charlo is the most powerful puncher Canelo has faced” He stopped Harrison and Costano at 154 doh. Hardest puncher.

    That tells me I'm not a sucker like you shad. Canelo -Charlo was a horrible fight for boxing, I couldn't care less that it was Undisputed vs Undisputed, what it really was, was a 168 pounder vs a 154 pounder, so if that tickles your hiney more power to you. At least I get to see Fury potentially knock that annoying little **** KSI out.

    You're twisting what I said and then are exaggerating on top of it. If you wanna have a discussion then lets have it. The fighters who stopped Harrison can punch, what Charlo did to Harrison was impressive. He showed he has good power and can punch. Harrison was winning the Nelson fight at the time of the stoppage and the Hurd fight was very even. I don't think he was the same when Tim stopped him but that doesn't take anything away from what Charlo did. No one's arguing that GGG wasn't a massive puncher in his prime, and I wasn't arguing that Charlo was a bigger puncher than GGG. But if we look at who Canelo fought since GGG, Jermell arguably is the biggest puncher, or the most explosive puncher he's fought. You list Bivol, he's not known as a big puncher. Plant is an average puncher, Ryder, average puncher. Jermell is a more explosive and devasating KO puncher than those guys. Now granted, KOing people at 154 is different than 168, but if we're just talking about who has shown more devasating KO power in their career, particularly as of late, it's clear that Jermell has shown that more than guys like Bivol, Ryder and Plant particularly in recent years.

    It doesn't sound like you're interested in having an actual conversation about this. If you decide you want to, I'm here.

    You'd rather watch youtubers like Jake Paul and KSI than legitimate world champions like Canelo or Charlo. That's pathetic man, embarrassing really.

    Over a 168 pounder against a 154 pounder any day of the week. And you hyped this fight for months when we all knew it was a terrible mismatch. That's pathetic man, and you're embarrassing yourself still to this day.

    What else is sad Shad, is that you'd hype up Canelo-Crawford the same way, and they're 3 weight classes apart....even worse.

    What about Canelo vs Crawford. A lot of people wanna see it. Would you rather watch Jake Paul's next fight than that?

    Why would I want to see a 147 pounder against a 168 pounder for? Might as well bring Inoue up 8 weight classes as well for UNDISPUTED VS UNDISPUTED. I want to see Canelo fight the Benevidez-Andrade winner, and I want to see Crawford fight Boots or move to 154. Enough of these meaningless money grabs that do nothing for the sport of boxing.

    So would a lot of people. How is that bad? I'm not calling for Canelo Crawford, but if it happens, then the hype will come with it. A fight like that doesn't need me to hype it. What I don't get is, why do you care about anyone getting hyped for big fights? When Fights happen, do you want everyone to just whine and complain all the time? Where's the fun in that?

    I don't know of anybody other than die-hard Crawford fans who want to see that fight, and even if it's entertained we all know they're 3 weight classes apart. Who in their right mind would want that fight when we could have Crawford-Ennis and Canelo-Benevidez instead? Real fans want the best fights that make sense, not money grabs that make no sense. Cmon shaddy.

    I'm more hyped about Benevidez-Andrade and the winner fighting Canelo than anything. The reason why Canelo Crawford is intrguing is because both could be P4P #1 / #2 by the time it happens, and even though there's several weight gaps between them, the possibility of the two top P4P fighters fighting is always gonna generate interest. Also, just because Jermell failed against Canelo, doesn't mean Crawford will. Yeah it's a tall task but many give Crawford a better chance of competing against Canelo than Charlo. So from that standpoint it's interesting.

    Anytime a fighter dares to be great it has intrigue because a fighter is trying to accomplish something difficult or unprecedented. For some reason that doesn't seem to resonate with you but it does for a lot of boxing fans.

    A lot of fans are calling for Crawford to fight Canelo, many on this forum. Pay more attention.
