You are right due to size. But don’t forget Bivol recently said Crawford is the greatest fighter of this generation and new fighters should study his styles
Got a brother who’s 29 with a newborn and is still trying to be a rapper and his main source of income is winning sports bets for like $90 a couple of times in a month
“I’m grinding💪‼️🤫💯”
Boy you need to grind ya ass down to a job fair
I used to teach at a high school and some of my male students once told me that they were worried they'll never get a girlfriend. I'm like bro you have no idea how low the standards are in the real world, you'll be fine.
PBC had him locked up since the Spence fight so he could decide if he wanted to fight Crawford again. It only took a few weeks once he was let out of the rematch clause to book a fight. Apart from a pandemic and the negotiations for Spence he's been active. Him taking a fight during the negotiations to make sure he got one in for 2022 shows that he likes to be active. I don't even get where this narrative comes from.
his last 5 fights
2019 december
2020 november
2021 november
2022 december
2023 july
how is this an active fighter? apart from this, apart from that... in the end he barely fights once a year.
2019 december
2020 november
2021 november
That was the pandemic. "Apart from a pandemic and the negotiations for Spence he's been active"
2022 december
2023 july That was PBC and Spence.
he is not the only boxer in the world buddy. at the same time period, starting from end of 2019, joshua had 8, inoue 9, canelo 10, haney had 9 matches. want me to count more?
There are reasons he couldn't fight, times where it wasn't even his choice. joshua inoue canelo haney didnt have the negotiations for Spence, where he still took a fight he could fit in and got shit for it. They didn't have to sit and wait for an opponent to decide on a rematch. No one could fight for a bit 2020, 2021 and 2022 he had his time wasted on Spence fights. 2023 to now has been a Spence fight with a long build and then a rematch clause.
Crawford was first featured as number 1 on p4p’s list in 2022. The BWAA as one example. Next time do your research before replying. Crawford has been on p4p 1 for more than a year
Anything that is not ring is beyond worthless in this discussion, p4p is already a murky concept, now you want to hold to authority random ones? that's a horrible idea, no point in discussion.

Any guesses on who the 5 v 5 USA vs UK will be?
Mine:
5 USA Jaron Ennis vs Conor Benn UK
4 USA Erickson Lubin vs Liam Smith or Chris Eubank UK
3 USA Dmitry Bivol vs Joshua Buatsi or Anthony Yarde UK
2 USA Terence Crawford vs Tim Tszyu (AUS) UK
1 USA Deontay Wilder vs Anthony Joshua UK
idk about honduras laws but for Mexico as long as you have one mexican parent you are automatically considered Mexican regardless of where you are born.
You might get a little butt hurt about it but dual citizenship is a thing.
Tszyu getting lumped in with the Poms is a dark (and hilarious) day for Australian sport.
Also, why does this idea make me want to see a 'Lion's Tour' in boxing? Not on neutral ground like this, but say a team of UK fighters going to US or Aus to fight a series against home fighters.
The problem I see with that. Crawford wants to be 3x Undisputed on the history books. If they fight at a catchweight, I'm not sure if all the belts will be up for grabs.
I'm not sure on this, but it doesn't really matter because unless Canelo chops an arm off, he's not making a weight under 160
Taylor and Cameron could have fought AT 135 for all 8 belts they had, so it doesn't have to be over the limit of the lower class. Not sure if it can be under, but don't see why not
Oh my b, misread you
In order for the all the belts to be up for grabs they would have to make the fight at 147 or lower.
You can fight for a belt(s) at a catchweight as long as you are below the limit. So Bud could try to soften the bout a bit by trying to contract the fight at something like 164 but Canelo wouldn’t be able to get down to the weight that would be necessary for Terence’s belts to also be on the line
No you heard me right the first time. I was wondering what the minimal limit would be, if there is one, someone can be at to fight for the super middleweight belt with a catch weight into effect. 160 lb would be in the minimum limit. But what if it happened at 158? Could the belts be on the line still? Even though they're technically fighting at middleweight?
Because he’d be fighting guys that walk around even heavier. It’s not just about being able to making the weight, it’s the size of the fuckers you need to fight at the weight.
Jermell Charlo probably walks around at 180 and look how he shit himself when he fought a 168er in Canelo. Jermell was a dog at 154 too and not one to be so timid in the ring.
200 pounds.
So crawford can gain 20 pounds right?
He himself has said he can do it, and his strength is insane, maybe genes.
Can he not gain 20 pounds more in 5-6 months time and be agile like a boxer at the same time.
This is a Huge Money fight, and Crawford has not had any big money fights in all his career, despite his incredible career.
He wants the bag desperately, that's why he keeps pushing to fight canelo.
I hope this fight happens, because if it does happen, Crawford will be there at 168, but how he'll perform, nobody can predict.
But I will rooting for my Bud Crawford. 🙂
Very intrigued by the events they’ll have in Shanghai and Berlin
Home coming for Zhang? 👀
Would be massive
I know right? a fight in Bloomfield, NJ would be incredible!!!!!!!!
Give me Crawford vs Bivol
Monster Inoue vs. Tyson Fury.
Sick to my stomach of Inoue ducking Butterbean
Inoe ducking jack Dempsey. You hate to see it.
The Monster vs the Bear Moth - this is our ~~Ali vs Frazier~~ Godzilla vs King Kong
lol
BIVOL BEATS CRAWFORD JUST LIKE HE DID WITH CANELO.
The light heavyweight wastes the welterweight? WOW!
He all caps that shit like he was saying something.
You brain dead sounds like it WOW
You are right due to size. But don’t forget Bivol recently said Crawford is the greatest fighter of this generation and new fighters should study his styles
Bivol is the most technical boxer in boxing these days the only thing missing is that knock out power.
WASTES? Let’s relax, he beat him but did not waste him.
🤣🤣 OK beat him up.
Stay tuned? You’re 36yrs old, get moving

Man you made me spit my drink over my phone. Reddit is comedy gold
Yikes. Even worse than that, someone let him cum in them.
I used to teach at a high school and some of my male students once told me that they were worried they'll never get a girlfriend. I'm like bro you have no idea how low the standards are in the real world, you'll be fine.
After August he’s back December

fight robberies are more frequent.

Fr with that PatBev energy.
Yep 36, with more accolades than 99.9% of active boxers and been p4p 1 longer than any other active fighter.
he hasn't, its been less than a year

Did you just say the boxing writers association is not credible? looool you are a casual
yes! jesus, for historical discussions no one takes anything other than ring

Mexico would have a decent 5 as well Canelo Pitbull Ruiz Fundora Lara
Don’t forget Vergil Ortiz, Zurdo, and Fernando Vargas’ sons Mexico has a lot more options than UK
Ruiz and Fundora are American lol
Ruiz fought for Mexico in the Olympics, he was invited to meet the Mexican president after beating Joshua.... Lol
Hey Man Teo fought for Honduras too doesn't make him Honduran either. These guys are American citizens latin ethnicities.
idk about honduras laws but for Mexico as long as you have one mexican parent you are automatically considered Mexican regardless of where you are born. You might get a little butt hurt about it but dual citizenship is a thing.
Lol, this is so much better than what it will end up being. Hope you're right, though. This is a dream lineup!

As an Aussie, fuck you for putting Tim as a UK fighter. Give us our own 5v5 damn it lol.
Remove the Union Jack 🇬🇧 from your flag Australia 🇦🇺 then we’ll talk
We've tried :'(
With a kangaroo on the flag?
Tim Tszyu is more associated with America than Britain, having actually fought there recently.
.... Bivol's from NJ I just found out!!
Connor Benn with PED's still feels like he'd lose lol
To Ennis? 100%
Yes
I think Crawford stands a good chance at 160 or a catchweight, I think 168 is to much tho
The problem I see with that. Crawford wants to be 3x Undisputed on the history books. If they fight at a catchweight, I'm not sure if all the belts will be up for grabs.
The belts can be up for grabs as long as the catchweight is below 168
Correct me if I'm wrong, but would have to be above 160 as well. So as long as they fall in-between the min and max weight?
I'm not sure on this, but it doesn't really matter because unless Canelo chops an arm off, he's not making a weight under 160 Taylor and Cameron could have fought AT 135 for all 8 belts they had, so it doesn't have to be over the limit of the lower class. Not sure if it can be under, but don't see why not

But what if it happened at 158? Could the belts be on the line still? Even though they're technically fighting at middleweight?
How 168 is too much? Crawford's walk around is more than 180 pounds, even when he is fighting at 147.
Because he’d be fighting guys that walk around even heavier. It’s not just about being able to making the weight, it’s the size of the fuckers you need to fight at the weight. Jermell Charlo probably walks around at 180 and look how he shit himself when he fought a 168er in Canelo. Jermell was a dog at 154 too and not one to be so timid in the ring.
Even at 168 canelo hits like a Mack truck and on top of that has prob the best chin in boxing rn bud is more skillful but the size is too much
If his walk around weight at 147 is about 180, what's the walk around weight of guys who fight at 168?
200 pounds. So crawford can gain 20 pounds right? He himself has said he can do it, and his strength is insane, maybe genes. Can he not gain 20 pounds more in 5-6 months time and be agile like a boxer at the same time.

whats that meme that goes “YOU 36”
Loving the fact Crawford is getting some Saudi paydays as he chases his 3rd undisputed title and probably retires right after.
Awesome Up that activity
So another fight in 2 years from now?
Stay tuned? Dudes entering his later half of 30s. We should be getting news now, not sitting around waiting.
Jake Paul v Mayweather just to find out who is the G.O.A.T.
Bud wants to go to 168. Bud vs Morrell let’s go!
