    I think as soon as Crawford feels Canelo’s power, he will try and survive. Canelo is hitting super middleweights and light heavyweight’s and getting their respect. Crawford would have to put on a masterclass defensive performance. Going up in weight like that and having the stamina to maintain moving the way he will need to move will take its toll. Crawford skill for skill is better than Canelo but the size difference negates a lot of that.

    Judging by this performance, he loses to Floyd every time at any point in his career.

    i still dont think bud has a chance. hes big now, but thats not genetics big, that's nutrition and weight work big. its going to slow his movement, and its still not preparing him for getting hit by a guy as naturally big as canelo is.
    if he pulls it off hes p4p #1, but i think his willingness to trade is going to send him to the canvas.

    It was fun at the start but I’d happily never watch another Turki card. Awful atmospheres and they go on like he’s a boxing purist but he doesn’t even watch the fights. Too busy speaking to other people ringside.

    everyone is. Scull looked absolutely massive compared to Canelo. Looked like a LHW in there with a MW.

    I don’t get where Canelo’s weight is. His bone and muscle density must be absurd to weigh in the same as Scull.

    he’s a member of the Saudi royal family. It’s his money too, in a way.

    I mean, Bakole sort of delivered. He was too passive for about 4 rounds, but other than that, you can’t say he didn’t try to turn that into a firefight. I don’t think he looked great, and I think he’s on the verge of ruining his career because he won’t put the damn fork down, but you cannot say he didn’t try to make a good fight tonight.
