    Canelo gave Crawford his chance. It's only right that he gets a return. Canelo was injured and can do better with a functioning left arm.

    I've read the script. This time Canelo will win. It will be concluded in the 3rd fight.

    Canelo is such an ugly useless ginger midget. If a rematch does happen and he doesn't use his jab again then he should be banned from boxing.

    Bud should insist on a catchweight and rehydration clause to give Canelo a taste of his own medicine.

    Neither boxer has a viable option as far as potential opponents go at this stage. I'm not really interested in this fight though, Canelo is a has been who's attempting to milk every last drop of star power that he has left.

    How exactly is Crawford a diva? I may be wrong, but I've never heard of him putting harsh demands on opponents or being ridiculous in negotiations.

    I'm not interested. No need for this rematch.

    I guess a rematch is fair in the scheme of things, but he just hasn’t looked at it for a while now. He looks physically shot too

    This is such a weight on boxing. In the canelo reign already everything was shifted around so he could face whomever he wants, now there might be a rematch where all trajectories imply that canelo will have less of a chance than the first time... How will he be better than the first time? And Crawford will only be stronger at that weight. He was there for the first time, now it's the second time.

    Again someone with a big name is taking away the spot for new challengers. If the stupid belt system was functional, crawford should at least lose 2 of them this way. SMW is basically pushed out of view.

    They should make a different 'congratulations-belt' for undisputed fighters and make them lose all other belts. Then they can defend that instead. Don't those belt organisations love to make new ones?

    Crawford now finds himself in the exact same predicament Clenelo did: Even though the deck would be stacked in his favour, he can't head North to 175 or South to 160 because either way he'll be running in head first to that Eurasian heat

    Bivol to the left of me
    Janibek to the right
    Here I am, stuck in the super-middle with you

    Deep Eurasian brothers don't need a stacked deck, we just need a deck and an opportunity to takeover and shine :deal:

    I don't want to see a rematch - it was not entertaining to watch Crawford run and Canelo chase him.

    Although the first fight was closer than the Crawford fans (like the childlike Max Kellerman) were saying, Canelo is now too slow-footed to cut off the ring and will be even slower at another year older.

    I'd sooner see Crawford fight Janibek, or maybe Ennis.
