Bud confirmed he's never going back down to 154 and said LHW is too big, not moving up so....

    Canelo rematch for the money without a doubt. For legacy, becoming champion at MW is a no brainer.

    He's hinted at 160.

    I think he can win at 160 easily

    Would be something if he unified that division too.

    Turki could do:
    Crawford vs Janibek
    Lara vs Adames

    Winners meet next for linear and undisputed

    Weighing just under 14lbs more than the 154 limit

    Watch the video and observe how lean he is. Extremely lean, skinny with very low body fat.

    If someone is weighing in as lean as that at 168 with such low body fat they sure as hell aren't a natural 154 pounder

    Ideal situation for him would be to lose against canelo and have a trilogy. That would generate enough money for generations. No one else will bring the canelo money

    As much as I want Crawford to retire undefeated just to shut these guys up, I kinda hope he loses once just so he doesn't get overhyped into the mythical unbeatable fighter like Usyk and Floyd. It would be financially ideal to have a whole series with Canelo before retiring, rematch Canelo, lose and then set up a trilogy

    so what

    who cares

    people have been cutting weight and making weight for decades

    weight bullying is the dumbest term I’ve ever heard

    ability to make weight easier than your foe can is no different than any other advantage one fighter has over the other

    Fair enough. I think he should try to fight Bivol or Benavidez. The Alien (BHop) might beat them both in awful shitty spoiing fights. can we get an interview with Benavidez asking what he would do with Pavlik or even GOAT Bhop? Ok so what happens if Bud fights Benavidez or Bivol?

    There is potential ATGness around here. Love boxing. ****ed up asnd corrupt as it is.
