    Not sure what you should expect from a man who has such a God complex that he makes everyone call him His Excellency. Makes me cringe in the press conferences when every fighter has to thank him and address him before they answer their first question. No amount of money could allow me to put aside my pride and do all that ****. Which is probably why I'll never amount to much in life :lol: But hey some things in life are more important. :naughty:

    Turki is the first one in the change rooms claiming he's owed Canelo's post-fight BJ.

    Sounds like I didn't miss much last night.

    Canelo looking bad against a mover shouldn't have been too big a shock he's always had issues with that style and it doesn't seem like anything has changed.

    I remember when Canelo/Crawford was first suggested not many gave Bud a chance, I was one of the few. Bud can win this, stylistically he's always been problematic for Canelo. But he can be hit and he hasn't felt power like Canelo's. Canelo's power can perhaps bail him out, but I expect him to be out boxed for much of the fight.

    To be honest I think most of Canelo's weight comes from his neck. It's like a tree trunk. :lol:

    It's not just that Canelo loooke bad against a mover, it's that the mover did absolutely nothing to show he was there to win.

    Mate, I couldn't care less if you are a Jew.

    It's Zionism weaponised into genocide and ethnic cleaning I have an issue with.
