Doesn't change the fact that he offered the fight at 150 though, does it? Which is what that poster claimed, which, was true. He did offer to come down at 150 lbs, that's a fact.
And also on top of that, Canelo wouldn't shut up before the fight about how 152 was no problem and would be easy for him to make, not really suprising considering he weighed in only 1.5 lbs heavier in his fight before that.
Only after the fight and after being dominated did the suddenly decide he "never wanted it". Before the fight he said it was no problem countless times.

I don't know if it will or not but it will definitely put him in the conversation. I don't know. You got guys like Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep and Roberto Duran all with better resume's than Bud.
However, Crawford would be a three time undisputed champion in three separate weight divisions in the four belt era. One can easily make a compelling case either way.
It would be close but I say no cigar. Those earlier guys I mentioned have close to two hundred fights or more on their records. They took more risks and fought against much stiffer competition than Crawford.

In the heat of the moment after a KO win and wanting some recognition & big $$$, Canelo initially put his foot in his mouth. Of course, Mayweather ran with it and tried to get him down as close to 150 as possible.Last edited by garfios; Yesterday, 07:53 PM.

Actually, it would have made a difference. Alvarez fought very flat-footed at whatever weight he rehydrated to (165, 170?). At 200 lbs, he would have fought like his feet were in cement.

Bud has always been delusional. His best win is Spence and a lot of people won't remember Spence.

Bud might as well go all the way and say he is goat now, saying he is top 3 is almost holding back and being shy
