    Roberto Duran's best win is Sugar Ray Leonard; Crawford's best and only A-grade win was against a brain-damaged Errol Spence, who looked like he was stoned during his ring walk. The "beaten X number of world champions" is irrelevant when comparing eras because there are infinitely more belts now. In Duran's era, there were two belts, which is how it should have stayed.

    Once the IBF and WBO came about in the 1980s, the WBF and IBO joined in, and suddenly, everyone was a "world champion." Crawford has an extremely weak resume compared to any of the greats. If they fought at lightweight, Duran would take Bud out in under six rounds. Sugar Ray Leonard and Hearns would've also taken him out in a similar fashion as well, don't get it twisted, they were made from something completely different back then.

    That's why he has been so reluctant to take it and I am still not convinced he makes it to the ring in Sept.

    Ok now your just trolling. Crawford does not rate above Duran currently, can't see anyone that would entertain that.

    Maybe if Crawford completely schools Canelo he has a better argument, but right now a shell Spence, Porter, shot Khan & Brook, plus an 11-pro fight Madrimov is hardly enough

    I can see it like Golvkin/Brooke. Then again, I can see it similar to Mayweather/Canelo. Crawford is about the same age Mayweather was when they fought. Canelo is much older now. I am pulling for Bud, but would not be surprised by either outcome if I'm being honest.

    I think Crawford outpoints Canelo. Canelo looks too sluggish now and still cuts massive weight. Crawford is going to be more comfortable going up in weight and will be the much faster fighter.

    I don't know why people are comparing Madrimov and Canelo as to why Crawford is going to struggle against Canelo. Madrimov never stops moving and is hard to look good against. I think Canelo would even struggle with Madrimov and that style (and he has in the past).

    Canelo is a flat-footed plodder, albeit it a very good defensive one with power. His style is nothing like Madrimov's. If he beats Crawford, he'll probably knock him out but I can see Canelo struggling in the fight. I doubt it'll be a blowout.

    canelo cant knock out bad fighters like john rider but hes gonna knock out a great boxer like crawford? i think guys under 5’10 give a lot more credence to size difference than actually matters

    You're crazy as hell if you think Canelo has lost interest in preserving his legacy and isn't taking this fight seriously. Canelo has a huge ego and will do everything in his power to win.

    It's possible this fight will be staged more than a Tyson Paul fight, a money grab by both guys especially Bud who'll probably make more for this fight than in his entire career . When it goes the distance in a lackluster effort you'll know what happened, oh and Canelo wins the decision.
