    If this happened I'd put him second behind Usyk in the modern era.

    Top 20.

    It would be his first top tier win. So top 200

    Canelo would have to win by KO because ain’t no way in hell he comes close to winning on points.

    Crawford will beat him far easier than Bivol and Floyd imo.

    Definitely don’t think fight happens mind you.

    Floyd vs Canelo was a really poor Floyd imo.
    Still whooped him

    Unless Crawford ages over night he is still prime right now

    It's just not right that Floyd-such a rich man-is allowed to still live in the heads of everyone on this forum, completely free of rent.

    tbh, I will place him above even Inoue if Crawfraud curbstomps Clenelol. Wonder if he would beat him now or out his prime/semi-shot like unfortunately happened with Spence/Benavidez.

    I appreciate him but honestly that Amir Khan fight thread speculation is hilarious, overexaggerated and encapsulates too much the forum lmao. Will read it all one day.

    Floyd did not drain Canelo down to 152. The fight immediately before the Floyd fight he was 153 only a few months earlier. Put that propaganda to bed.

    Original question:
    This fight isn't happening, but if it did Canelo would stop Crawford. And if through some alignment of quantum particles Crawford did win, I'd say that he would be in the top 30-40ish of all time.

    It sickens me to my stomach that so many supposed knowledgeable "boxing" guys are acting like weight class doesn't matter when it significantly does. Weight has been and always will be relative. Even with the guys that fluidly moved up, those are outliers, and extreme outliers at that.
