    Recent video of Bud back at the gym although it’s uncertain if it’s for a potential fight or if he’s just working out.

    Who knows maybe we’ll see him return and perhaps against Boots after all.

    Hope not.

    I am a fan but if Crawford doesn't need the money he should stay retired. Nothing left for him to do and going out on top is a unicorn in this sport.

    Him and Mayweather will clash.

    turquoise Ali will put up the money for this fight.

    I can't see it. Bud is just in the gym keeping himself sharp. He's lived and breathed the gym since he was a kid, so he's not going to suddenly stop training because he's retired from prizefighting. Stranger things have happened though, I suppose.

    Not that I care about either guy but I think it is only fair that he gives Canelo a rematch.

    I don't think he's coming back unless insane money is there for a Canelo rematch.

    He signed with Zuffa didn't he? Probably heading for one of Turki's monster cards.

    I concede that Canelo did give Crawford an opportunity to make a huge amount of money, but on the other hand Crawford's victory was decisive and non-controversial.

    Bud is Bud and Floyd is Floyd.

    Bud retired once and, as far as we can tell, he meant it. He's older, has no credible opponents on deck, and has made enough money. Floyd retired in his prime, several times over, loved attention, repeatedly left opponents on the sidelines.

    Bud training might just be how he exercises.

    I can’t believe people are really saying Crawford is done with boxing. The man is pulling in $100 million a fight. After beating Canelo, he played the retirement card to get the mandatory pressure off his back, take a break from the brutal training camps, enjoy that money for a while, and live it up.

    Of course he’s coming back. No way Bud walks away for good with that kind of money on the table. I’d be shocked if he retires before cashing in on at least another five fights. Again, we’re talking about a guy making $100 million every time he steps in the ring.
