so weird he has no aura outside of fighting

Watching a few fights from 2021-2022 from Canelo including Bivol.
This guy is beyond fucking shot now compared to 3-4 years ago. I really think it's just probably Eubank Jr and Jake Paul left for him. Gonna miss Clenelo.

Bob Fitzsimmons
Tony Canzoneri
Barney Ross

These are the only fighters to be undisputed at 3 weight classes

Fury won. Twice.
>>
>>150790128
Bob Fitzsimmons would batter Crawfraud.
>>
>>150789806
Canelo still got one more fight for the Saudis. Most likely Crawford at lower than 168. That's the biggest payday left for both men before they retire and fight would probably be in Mexico
Maybe that Saudi Middleweight dude they've been pushing gets the fight if the Saudis can get Alvarez to fight what we assume is his retirement fight in KSA
>>
>>150789342
Floyd is flexing on 50k?!? Is he going bankrupt? The old Floyd wouldn't even pick up his phone about a 5 figure bet.

Crawfraud only fights geriatrics and car crash survivors, I don't rate him.

>>150790415
No way Canelo wants to fight Crawford again. He came close to pulling the classic beaner No Mas card.

Canelo isnt fighting bud again. If he still wants to box he'll fight benavidez. If he wants to cash in it'll be Jake Paul

I think even the biggest Canelo nuthugger would struggle to give him more than 4 rounds. It wasn't really close. Canelo had a handful of isolated moments, but he was just outgunned.

Tbh his resume is still a bit sketch. People say Mayweather was a cherry picker (which i disagree with) but cmon Spence flew out of his car like Superman, Porter was semi retired and Canelo hasn't had a KO in almost 5 years. Bud picked his fights well and blamed king jew Arum for somehow holding him back when all these fighters were at their peak.

I guess you can only fight what's in front of you. Would Usyk beat a AJ that wasn't gun shy from the Ruiz loss and Fury before he blew up to 600 pounds and lost his legs? Who knows.
>>
just caught up on the fights

can't believe crawford won... I apologise to terry crawford for calling him crawfraud
saw some RIP Ricky Hatton posts earlier but i thought they were taking the piss, that's a shocker

the takei fight on co-main was a banger, watch that instead

>>150792750
The greatest fighters always carefully managed their careers. Mayweather didn't fight Pac until he had clearly lost a step. Sugar Ray Leonard insisting on pillow gloves and a giant ring so he could dance around Hagler. Jon Jones had zero interest in fighting Rumble Johnson because he knew that power and wrestling would make a difficult opponent. Notice how these guys always are high 'fight IQ' types, they understand that half the fight happens before the contract is even signed. Canelo was great, but he's just a meat-head bully. The next tier of fighter has higher ring-IQ. That's guys like Mayweather, Hopkins, Usyk.

Tough weekend for us ginger-kings. F to Ricky. A true real one. Multiple time world champ, besides his comeback he only lost to two of the best boxers ever. Imagine having to fight 2 guys that are going to be in most people's 'top 10 EVER' list, damn. No shame whatsoever in falling short of Manny and Floyd.
>>
>>150793337
He gave Floyd a good fight too, pity that his performance gets overshadowed by how comical the KO was

I'm gonna be honest I thought Canelo earned the split decision victory

>>150795523
Usyk by a mile. His HW run is the greatest P4P achievement I've ever seen.
>>
>>150795638
I'm racist against black people and even I thought Canelo won 4 rounds at best.
>>
>>150795523
>>150795523
Hard to say with him versus Usyk. Almost all of their famous wins were people past their peak or had losses that changed them. So you look at the less known fighters.

I think prime Bredis gives Usyk an edge over Bud and that Bredis win will age like fine wine even more if Opetai easily takes out Zurdo and grabs a heavyweight belt on top of that. You gonna look back and say damn Usyk beat the guy in his prime that broke Opetai's jaw at 39 and gave him a close fight.

Bud doesn't really have anything like this where he beat a fighter that wasn't well known that later on grabbed a good win or had a close fight with an up and coming great. Madrimov seemed like he could be GGG Jr but got smashed up by Ortiz so that went out the window quick.
>>
>>150792750
He beat everyone when he was at 140. Beat all but one notable name at 147 (Boots).

I dont really know what's he's going to do next. Maybe he goes back to 154, maybe he stays at 168. If I was him I'd clean out 160. The champs there aren't exactly killers and its shallower than 154 or 168. It can be cleaned out much quicker than the alternatives
>>
>>150792750
He also fought Khan and brook who were in pieces for years already lol
>>
>>150796566
>got smashed up by Ortiz
I dont remember that happening. It was pretty competitive
>>
I've said before that Canelo needs to initiate with head movements, feints, jabs, and double jabs against Crawford. While Crawford can be outboxed, there was no slick boxing done because Canelo didn't initiate shit and was just waiting to throw hooks. You can't rattle a cerebral boxer by simply spamming hooks. Not only that, I've said before that the prideful Crawford thinks he's stronger than Canelo and will be eager to fight in the pocket at the right opportunity. Canelo was really risking to get KO'd in that fight. Now everybody thinks Crawford is all invincible and has successfully ducked the super welterweight division.
>>
>>150790538
This. 5 weight champ and 3 weight undisputed but only 1 legit hof'er on his resume. Doesn't crack top 50 all time.
>>
Crawford didn't do shit except throw 100 pillow hands and dance away from the opponent. He didn't have the heart to actually fight the guy.
>>
>>150796993
Canelo just can't do that shit anymore. 68 pro fights mostly with camps, weight cuts and hard sparring has shot him.
>>
>>150789318
Crawford only had one entertaining fight which was Spence. Inoue beat up on mostly bums and old has beens. Only usyk truly delivered and is worthy of cracking top 50 all time.
>>
>>150796993
>Canelo needs to initiate with head movements, feints, jabs, and double jabs
I think its been close to a decade since Canelo double jabbed
>>
>>150797531
When Canelo got in his face, Bud still won almost all of those exchanges. He was thoroughly schooled. He would have gotten stopped if he wasn't such a tough bastard. Canelo looked like he wanted to quit at the end.

With the combination of Usyk's prediction, and the always wrong nonce's prediction, of course it was going to be a Crawford win.

He was brain damaged, randomly crying and mood swings are signs of brain damage but that’s uncomfortable for people to acknowledge because it means boxing is to blame and no amount of talking about muh mental health would have repaired the damage. It’s a risk that comes with the territory and his son Campbell was wise to drop out when it was clear he wouldn’t make it as a top level prize fighter.

But the fight itself was just okay. Canelo should have said fuck it and head hunted the whole time if he didn't wanna fucking box properly anyway. Bud getting dropped once or twice and Canelo getting KO'd from a counter would have been kino.

He wished so much to win again. And when he lost he started to cry. He was the happiest man in the world when he beat Kostya Tszyu and he knew he will never feel that kind of high again, ever, and he couldn't cope.
>>
>>150802575
His 168 run is 10/10 and those years of boxing sucked ass with all the ducking and Clenny was the bright spot. Yeah he pisssed hot for GGG 2 and got favorable scores for GGG 1 and Lara but man that 2020/2021 Canelo was fun to watch.

>>150802093
Gamboa was completely undersized for a lightweight and his career was a mess at that point too. It was a joke fight. Crawford's resume is still doo doo.
>>
so now that the dust has settled, where does Bud rank on the all time p4p list? is he top 10 after what he just did to another ATG 20 lbs up from his natural weight class?
>>
>>150802901
he's got a 15 year resume of top names
yes there are some tomato cans, yes there are some cherrypicks and PEDs but nobody has that sort of career any more
guys had like 30 world title fights or something silly like that
>>
>>150804385
Top 10 all time is a rare distinction. The one argument against it is Bud has not faced another ATG in their prime. Belts, numbers, none of that is important at all. Canelo was well past his prime. So we will never know what happens when Bud gets pushed to the limit.
>>
>>150804385
Not even top 50. Just look at his resume lol. I don't care how many trinkets he won.
>>
>>150804469
>>150804500
Bud is even older than Canelo and made it look easy. name another guy in history who you think could go up that much weight and do that to an over the hill Canelo who is still dangerous and technically great. the list won't be long
>>
>>150804558
Canelo's run since Bivol has been just atrocious. He couldn't even get Berlanga out of there which Sheeraz dispatched in what 2 rounds? Canelo is entirely carried by his name at this point, not his skill in the ring. Bud's win is impressive certainly but it's not even in the same galaxy as Ali Foreman or Leonard Hagler or even Pacquiao Magarito or de la Hoya
>>
Canelo has looked washed for years. I know he's only 35, but he has over 60 fights and has been at the top of the sport for many years.

>>150804558
Has nothing to do with age. Canelo has far more wear and tear and has been mentally out of the sport since his bivol loss. Canelo clearly more past it than crawford and it showed. At the end of the day crawford's resume is too mediocre to make it into top 50.
>>
>>150802901
Canelo at 160 was fun too, some of those fights rank among his best performances or fights in general. He has his controversies and asterisks but he's been a massive net positive to the sport for a long while, that's why it makes me sad he was humiliation ritualed because he was too shot to provide any resistance. Until the Bivol loss he was about as close to an ideal champion as you could get with the names and activity and performances.
>>
Can someone explain to me why nobody is suggesting the most obvious matchup ever?

Terence Crawford vs Olexander Usyk

Crawford goes up to Cruiserweight, Usyk comes back down.
Crawford had no trouble going up to super middleweight and becaming undisputed champion. Nobody else to fight in the division.
Usyk cleaned up heavyweight. The Parker fight is worthless because he has already beaten much better opponents. There is nothing left for him to do at heavyweight.

Both boxers 38 years old and nearing the end. Both undisputed champions across multiple weight divisions.

Fight of the century.
>>
>>150790885
Hatton was a bum m8.
>>
Where does Wilder’s power rank all time? I’m a super casual fan but I guess that basically the sentiment is that his technical boxing skills/movement are almost amateur level and the sole reason he ever made it this far is because of his generational knockout power. On top of that he started boxing in his early 20s and somehow made it to the top. How much of a genetic freak is he to have made it this far? Fury is a top level boxer and he almost had him beat twice. Could he have a chance against some all timers like Foreman, Frazier or Tyson?

Doubt it was on purpose.

There's no way he wasn't on a ton of painkillers. The usual culprit when someone is on a lot of opiates is alcohol + the pills. It's a deadly combo if you overdo it.
He probably just had one binge drinking day and it badly backfired.

>>150806763
He has a big right hand but shouldn't be remembered as much more than that. Fury is an enigma that had all of the talent in the world but never took the sport seriously. That Fury trilogy ended Wilder's career. He is punch drunk.

>>150807985
Crawford is simply too smart. He would study Mayweather like he did Canelo and find the perfect strategy to beat him. He has the athletic and boxing gifts to implement different styles to fit the right gameplan, whereas Mayweather only has a single style and when he deviated he was in the toughest fights of his career. Crawford wins easy.
>>
>>150801672
still dont get how netflix can possibly make their money back. canelo got a trillion dollars to show and it was only $8 to watch? not even including the people that already have netflix.
>>
>>150808186
Yeah I think it would take a couple rounds for Crawford to figure Floyd out, after that he would go for the kill. Crawford can fight any style. He can even fight southpaw or orthodox if necessary.
>>
>>150808186
>>150808466
Mayweather statistically speaking is the best of all time of hitting and not getting hit. Half of his fights are against former world champions. Crawford only has two good wins. Errol who wasn't the same after that car accident and Canelo who mentally retired 8 fights ago.
>>
Still no valid argument against this: >>150805871

Usyk loses 20 pounds, Crawford gains 20 pounds. It's doable. Usyk used to compete I'm Cruiserweight.

There is nobody left for either of them to fight in their respective class. They are both 38, undefeated, and undisputed across multiple divisions. It makes sense.

why was canelo so bad that was fucked
>>
>>150809760
Canelo did the modern day equivalent of Roberto Duran's "no mas" and looked like he gave up in the later rounds, yet two of the judges only had Crawford winning by a few points, it shows you how rigged the sport is. If Crawford didn't dominate the judges would have thrown the fight.

Madrimov beat Crawford unironically
>>
>>150809760
he's usually amazing but probably he couldn't believe the reaction times of crawford who was basically spiderman
>>
>>150809760
Canelo a shit
>>

>crawford who was basically spiderman
Crawford is built different. I watched all of Errol Spence's fights. Nobody did what Crawford did to him. Made him look like he didn't belong in the ring with him.

I thought this anon was a schizo, but apparently Usky and Shawn Porter fought each other when they were younger and Porter won so the right is possible

Did Ricky die from drug overdose? I recall he struggled with addiction.

Half-retired Oscar gave Mayweather a better fight than Canelo did. I think Oscar is underrated desu.

Bros how did i get it so wrong? How the fuck did madrimov do way better than canelo?

Why he smiling? Slav card: revoked.

Canelo frankly showed Zero humility after the loss. He wasn't devastated and barely seems to care.
>>
>>150811366
He seemed humble to me, besides the lol-tier hand raise. Canelo is too rich to care about boxing anymore. What do you expect? He got paid hundreds of millions.
>>
>>150811366
He made 150 mill from the fight. Probably more since he threw the fight. He realized that boxing records are bullshit and rigged and don't matter so this L was just a payday for him. Honestly the smartest thing to do in a sport that everyone already knows is shady and rigged as hell.
>>
>>150811366
>>150811385
Canelo has nothing left to prove in the sport so this was just a money fight for him. If he beat Crawford people would just argue he beat a smaller guy. The only way we see prime Canelo again is if he's given a legacy fight like the chance to become undisputed in another weight class.
>>
>>150811412
I think it's more of a case that Canelo couldn't be motivated to train for this fight. If he wins he gains nothing for his legacy since Crawford is coming up multiple weight classes. Meanwhile, Crawford had all the motivation in the world to win this fight to make history.

>| Terence Crawford| 42 fights| 245 total rounds|

if you think this guys as animals, because at the end of the day we are, canelo is too beat up. secretariat was the same, he ran too much and lost. crawford beat an old animal with too much mileage.
>>
>>150811441
it was too boring for me to go back and rewatch, but it seemed like Canelo wasn't even trying. Also all the clinching from Canelo was weird as hell, especially when he was the one moving forward for almost the entire fight. Doesn't make sense. He was trying to run out the clock while taking as little damage as possible, which is why Crawford was able to get off so many combos with little pushback from Canelo.
>>
>>150811453
But you're ignoring all the damage they take in sparring sessions. Crawford's mom would pay kids $10 if they could beat her son. God only knows how many gym wars he's been through. Canelo is younger than him.

Also, let's be real. The majority of Canelo's earlier fights were those sus Mexican fights where they pad their resume against taxi drivers and firemen. All the great mexican boxers are guilty of this.
>>
>>150811441
Canelo was clearly motivated for this fight. He wasn't phoning it in like he did against Berlanga and Scull. He showed up for this one, he knew he had to
>>
>>150811525
Honestly I wasn't suspicious until I saw the post-fight reactions from both Canelo and Crawford. It looked like neither one of them gave a shit about it, like they both knew it didn't mean anything. It was a win-win for both of them. Canelo got paid and Crawford gets to pretend he's an all time great
>>
>>150809286
Usyk arguably lost 3 fights.
>>
>>150811525
>Canelo was clearly motivated for this fight.
It is a big fight but it's not a legacy fight. The businessman in him showed up, the fighter in him did not. If Canelo won it did nothing for him.
>>
>>150811441
What more motivation does one need than to keep all their belts?
>>
>>150811688
Once you already won all the belts and gained the title of undisputed it doesn't matter if you lose them hence the reason we see fighters like Crawford and Usky leaving their weight class and abandoning all their belts. This isn't like the UFC where title defenses boost your legacy. Boxing used to be like that.
>>
by beating canelo crawford is not one of the greatest of all time, you niggas must be crazy. he beat a has been, and we all know that. hes had 3 horrendous fights before this. canelo is not even a hall of famer. you can pretend all you want.
>>
>>150811754
If winning undisputed belts in 3 weight classes was easy why is Crawford and Henry Armstrong the only ones to do it?
>>
>>150811765
benabidez would of done it, come on now. one got the chance the other didtnt
>>
>>150811765
because it's honestly not that impressive and can be done by being strategic about which fights you take and which ones you avoid

>>150801083
Yes. He’s been battling with depression for a long time.

Lol, no he didn’t.

>people already trying to retroactively discredit the Canelo win just like they did the Spence win
I'm not listening to this bullshit again
Crawford started his career as a fucking lightweight, slowly worked his way up to 154 while winning belts in each weight (became undisputed twice along the way) and then skipped TWO weight classes to go to 168 and fight the undisputed champ their who was widely considered to be top 5 p4p without any sort of tune up.
And don't give me that bullshit that Canelo is past his prime when he's 3 years younger than Crawford and was way more active than him going into this fight, he had every possible advantage going for him into this fight (Vegas judging, mexican crowd, younger and more active, bigger and more adjusted to the weight, A-side, etc) and Crawford STILL fucking schooled him as the underdog. If you don't think he's an ATG now there is literally nothing he could actually do that could convince you otherwise
>>
>>150811977
the fight was obviously rigged and Crawford's entire career was built on taking easy fights that were also most likely rigged. I've never heard of a single person talk about Crawford as anything other than a literal who and in about a week everyone will forget who he is. Canelo could lose his next ten fights and would still go down in history
>>
>bohachuk lost to Adams again
Nigga just has his number

*wipes my bum on your post*
>>
>>150812145
That fight and Mbilli vs. Martinez should've been the 2 fights before the main event, Walsh vs. Vargas just killed the cards momentum
>>
>>150811996
He goes down in history as a good fighter that was popular but ultimately wasn't good enough to stand with the truly elite
>>
>>150812523
And what if he beats Usyk in the cruiserweight battle of the multi division champions?
>>
>>150812606
Meds. Now.

What in the fuck is it with Americans telling everybody to start using prescription drugs?
Do they reach a point where they've watched so many pharma ads during NFL broadcasts that they themselves become advertisers for the pharma companies?
It's a phenomenon that needs to be studied imho tbqh.
>>
>>150789806
Imagine making excuses for this bum. He's the same fighter he's always been. Put a shithouse plodder in front of him from the Uk or another Bumlanga and he'll look like a p4p great again.
Why do you think he spent his whole career cherrpicking.
He can't deal with top level guys that can actually fight.
