    Canelo is a LHW champ. Don't be a Hearns and waste time at a tweener division. Go for Beterbiev, go for Bivol go for Benavidez. Crawford probably loses these fights but if he doesn't he has a chance to truly be a GOAT candidate and escape Floyds shadow forever!

    No, retire undefeated and become Mayweathers biggest fantasy match up rival.

    It was Mayweather vs Leonard. Now it's Crawford vs Mayweather. In the future the next big fantasy fight will be Boots vs Bud

    It's Boots vs Vergil. That's the fight. Crawford needs to milk a rematch with Canelo and then retire

    Id be interested in that fight but I don't know if boots would actually fight vergil. If boots does end up booking another tuneup I wouldn't complain about bud vergil in the meantime.

    Bakram vs bud would be fun too

    I have to admit that I'm curious about crawfod vs bivol, even if I know it is a total abherration and that weights exist for a reason.

    I'd be pretty surprised if Crawford moved up to LHW, I'd like to see it even if sounds crazy. I like Crawford but I think he will go down the route of money rather than legacy at this point.

    I expect Crawford will either rematch Canelo if the money is good or retire. There'll be a lot more money for a rematch with Canelo than moving up.
