    The boss has spoken.

    Canelo seems to be the only fighter saudis can't buy.

    Well, it's official. Murder is officially illegal in Saudi Arabia.

    He doesn't want it anymore or Canelo doesn't?

    Less than an hour before Crawford vs Madrimov

    This content is protected


    The following day Clenelo say he's ready to fight Crawford if the money is right

    The next day we don't want that ginger smoke anymore after seeing Crawford go life and death against an 11 fight 154 pounder :facepalm:

    Rewind back back to 2016

    Clenelo: Hey, Amir Khan?

    Amir: Wassup?

    Clenelo: You want some of this Ginger smoke?

    Amir: Dude I'm 140 pounder. But hell yeah you bet your goddamn life I want that smoke!

    Amir whoops Clenelo's ass for 5 rounds before a momentary lapse in concentration and a hail Mary Clenbuteral bomb from hell changes the course of history and salvages victory from the jaws of defeat for Clenelo

    Canelo wants too much money.

    Crawford vs Ortiz/Ennis is a better fight anyway.

    Let the Mexicans fund Canelo's tour vs bums.

    American and European fans will watch proper fights with Turki.

    Speaking of Clenelo

    Listen to what he has to say here about the GGG fights in an interview from yesterday

    ''Remember when they say you need to fight Golovkey? Golovkey is gonna knock you out etc... He had 36 rounds and he didn't do poop''

    What a disingenuous snake. GGG should be 2-1 against him and the only reason he was able to legitimately beat him once was because he aged him out and shamelessly ducked him, as he did a prime version, until he was 40 y/o

    And he had to joust industrial amounts of PEDs in his freckled ass for the rematch

    Good thing Turki came to his senses and made the obvious logical choice not to make the fight. Crawford can face the top guys around his weight, while Canelo......hmmm, maybe some day he could face a top level fighter again.

    I don't want it anymore is such a childish admission of IDKSAB.

    Belly, Crawford and Anderson are Turki's privileged boys. Those are his favourites

    He damn near got Belly killed by Usyk

    He damn near got Anderson killed by Bakole

    He watched Crawford vs Madrimov and said to himself ''Yeah, I think we'll give the Clenelo fight a miss thank you very much''

    Yeah, I said beforehand that it was dumb and needlessly so too matchmaking to put Anderson in there against Bakole

    He was even trying to get Twink killed by Inoue not long ago too :facepalm:

    Anyone who wanted Crawford and Canelo fight dksab. There is a reason we haven’t seen someone jump from 147 all the way to 168. Size matter. Yes Crawford is a superior boxer than Canelo but Canelo has thicker muscles wrapped around thicker bone structure. At 168 he isnt going to be bother by a punch from Crawford. Crawford will feel every punch that lands and Crawford will get caught. Can he take the same punches Bivol took? If he felt punches at 154, he is going to be hurting at 168.

    Even Turki , with money to throw away, finally sees this as a stupid fight. And he has thrown money away at stupid fights like Frances Ngannou.

    Makes sense.
    Turki enjoys playing emporer.
