1. Who do you think will win ?

Canelo

Crawford

Canelo

Crawford

Same.

The move up is tough.

We have weight classes for a reason. It's really difficult to fight up.

 

[Marat]

I actually have

1. Bud

Crawford from weigh ins actually looks natural at the weight, it’s just a matter of knowing how to fight with the extra pounds and if he can keep his speed advantage.

Everything slows down a little with the extra weight.

Also, he’s 167. Tomorrow, I will wager he will still be 167. Canelo will be 175+

It’ll be interesting.

If Crawford can protect his body and avoid Canelo's left hook and over top right, kid's got a shot!

Bud’s the best winner in boxing right now (game was, IQ, etc) but I think canelo is there best all around boxer in the game, and fights heavier. As @Fishy says, they won’t be the same weight tomorrow.

My heart says Crawford but mind says Canelo is too skilled defensively and powerful offensively to let a lighter Crawford beat him.

Crawford is the better boxer but its difficult to come up 21lbs in 2 years and fight a tank like Canelo. Bud has been my guy since 2014 but like several other guys that moved up to fight for the big payday vs Canelo Bud is going to realize size matters. Canelo by KO at some point.
As an aside i remember when Amir KHan moved up to fight Canelo some time after the fight in an interview he said something to the effect of he knew he was in trouble when he caught Canelo with a flush shot full power which he had hurt and even dropped guys with but Canelo walked right through it unfazed. Bud could have a similar experience as he is not elusive enough to avoid Canelos shots all night so he better hit hard enough to make Canelo think twice when he comes in. If he dont its a long night for my guy Bud. I think Bud is winning the fight when he gets stopped.

I looked them up. Apparently they are both boxers.

Consider this a Public Service Announcement for those who also had no idea what this post was about.

This is also a Netflix fight. But it will be much better than the previous one with Tyson vs Paul !

Would like Crawford but Canelo to big and strong. Gotta go with Canelo.

Same, not too big but too strong yes. Can go either way if Bud fights smart.

I haven’t watched the big time fight in years, but free and starting at nine I might have to check it out.

Free really, what service, Netflix?

Yup!

 

[uconngb]

Yup!

Which means it will crash at approx 9:02

Actual ring walk is expected to be about 11pm. But this is typical.

I want Crawford but think Canelo takes it by decision. Crawford will have success early and I think Canelo just takes over in the middle and late rounds.

I do not like that Crawford came in close to the 168 lb. limit. Makes me think he will want to trade shots with Canelo, who has an iron chin.

 

[temery]

I'll go with Crawford because that was the name of the old middle school bully I couldn't outrun. He was a very good bully.

 

[Conndog]

1:30 am and the fight still hasn’t started!

 

[Mike Honcho]

Bud looked incredible

 

[ColchVEGAS]

Great fight by Crawford. I scored it 116-112 Crawford.
