    Canelo should fight Crawford. He's said that there's no reward from fighting him because he's too small. I know Scull is his mandatory but legacy wise, the fight doesn't do a thing. No reward. I'm not buying the too small, no reward excuse if you are fighting Jermell and guys like Scull.

    Canelo & Crawford are two of the most pathetic forgettable fighters of this generation. Who the hell is going to talk about them two men 10 years from now? Nobody. It's a shame Canelo didn't get kidnapped as a child and forced into selling icecreams. Crawford thinks he beat the love child of Hagler & Hearns by beating a shot Lamborghini impaled Spence who would have got 1 tapped by Amir Khan on that night he was so poor.

    They spent half their careers trying to take claim to a made up accolade called "pound for pound" like a pair of woman on social media.

    Meanwhile a glorified midget with a gap between his teeth has held that title this entire time and these chumps want to pretend like he wasn't even there!

    Anyway pre order your Fury Usyk II PPV

    Crawford needs to beat Madrimov first (which I don't think he will personally). Canelo should fight Benavidez, Crawford should fight the best at 154. If they did fight it would be horrifically boring tho imo.

    Let them fight guys their own size. There's weight classes for a reason.

    If Crawford does something around Middleweight then people will start begging for this fight, as of now Canelo is right, He would get very little credit for beating Bud.

    Canelo, & his idol Floyd, are both done as fighters. stick a fork in both. neither were ever anything more than hyped frauds . just cash cows for the fleecing of the casual boxing fan. Protected by the Vegas officials so that that never really risked losing. I'm proud to say NEITHER have ever made 2 cents from me,as I've never bought the BS they produced

    I want to see the fight but I understand why Canelo wouldn't fight him. Its a genuine lose lose scenario to someone not even ranked in his division.

    Crawford could win a belt at 154 then at 160 then Canelo?! Would be ATG stuff

    First up is Madrimov but that route could be legitimate

    Inoue Tank will never happen. Inoue is currently in his 4th division and is getting touched a bit although his power has carried. Arum said Inoue will move to 126 next year where he will likely spend at least 2 years as that division is not unified. It may very well wind up being 3 years w mandatories and such. And that's 126...aint no telling if 130 ever happens or how long it would take Inoue to unify there. And Inoue is 31 years old already.

    People say, "oh Tank is face of boxing and mega fight w Inoue makes so much moneys11!!!" ...Tank just involved in a FLOP of PPV w Martin that will sell under 300k. The face of boxing PPV numbers:

    Rolly = 275k
    LSC = 200K
    Barrios = 210k
    Pitbull = 150k
    Hector Garcia = 210k
    RyGa = 1.2m
    Martin = Estimated of 275k (w Benavidez co-main)

    Tank might be face of certain inner city neighborhoods but he is not the face of boxing itself. And if Tank wanted to fight Inoue for real he'd campaign at 130 but he only use weight to advantage himself
