If Canelo isn't fighting Benavidez , I don't give a f**k what he's doing. If he takes the fight , I hope that Terrence whips his a$$.

If he’s not gonna fight benavidez, then this is the fight that makes the most sense. Financially it’ll do great and despite the size difference, don’t be fooled, this is a risky fight for canelo because Crawford’s skills significantly surpass those of Canelo’s. The risk is if canelo loses to someone who was a welterweight, his legacy falls significantly. That didn’t seem to bother him during all the years he was fighting smaller men and didn’t bother him when he picked charlo 2 fights ago, but now he suddenly seems to care and that’s because the risk of losing is greater.

It's a no-win scenario for Canelo.

Crawford should at least win a belt at 160 before he thinks about jumping all the way to 168. One fight at 154 and then a two weight jump seems like a bad idea.

Yep, the whole idea is sheer insanity... & I'm here for it!

Of course he'll take it. Wtf, a mismatch and big payday? Why the fvkc would he not.

I'd love to see Andre coward cry after bud loses too.

Craword should man up anf fight Canelo. Canelo is small for 168. He was a champion at 147, 154, 160, 168 and 175. His naturall weight is 154 but he dared to be great, unlike the GGGs and Bivols of this era. Crawford isabout the same size of Canelo. Donīt Afro As have a lot of muscle mass? Fight Canelo!!!!!!

Canelo was never a champion at 147. He won his first world title at 154 in 2011, in his 37th pro fight. By the time Crawford had 37 pro fights he had already been lineal at 135, undisputed at 140, and had 4 world title defenses at 147.

Crawford ducking Ennis and just wants to Cash out vs Canelo. Bivol, Kovalev, GGG couldn't hurt Canelo let alone someone who got rocked by little Gamboa and dropped by not elite level mean Machine.

Crawford wouldn't even Stop Plant, not even Benavidez could do it.

Sicne benavidez and morell have already moved up, canelo should also move up and try to avenge the bivol loss if he beats beterbiev (or beterbiev if he beats bivol), then fight benavidez and morell. Super MW is now stale. Forget crawford. He is fighting at 154 ibs.
