Bud is a freak, I think he will beat all comers at 154.. He is as good a fighter as I’ve ever seen.. Nobody has really taken him to deep waters in his career, he is pretty strong at 154 and very sharp…I love tyszu, Vergil but I think bud is too smart for both of them, and can make real adjustments, he is so multi faceted, how does one beat him. Not sure they can …
Definitely mate, well said. I couldn't agree more. Honestly not sure how one beats him unless he just keeps moving up and guys are just too big ie Canelo. But yeah at 154 I can't see the top guys beating him although I would say Tszyu or Ortiz probably gives him his best fight to date. A true blessing to the sport. Cheers 👊🙏
Agreed on this fight. Bud has every tool from either stance and more than enough fight IQ to use them efficiently. Add that he is an uber athlete, fearless, a clean-living gym rat, and he is as mean as a junkyard dog.
I think Madrimov is not problem for Crawford some kinda Avanesyan\Kavaliauskas fight. Who's next - is a question. Rumors talk about a possible fight with Canelo. It would be interesting to watch with Ortiz; besides, he is also boxing on the same evening. By the way, Henry, who do you think could replace Tim Tsyu for Ortiz? I heard about Bogachuk. This would be a very interesting fight. As for Crawford, there are many potentially interesting fights with him, but what will come of it is another big question. Bud is a chessmaster of boxing.
Yeah that's a fair comparison actually. Yeah I heard Serhii Bohachuk was rumored too, very tough Ukranian fighter, . Very good fighter and a good test for Ortiz, pressure fighter. A lot of interesting stuff happening around that weigh class. Interesting time for boxing. Love it!
I think Usyk’s run at cruiserweight had more depth than Buds 135-140 run. Usyk did have a close fight with Briedis . Usyk HW efforts have seen him beat 2 top British fighters and another close fight with Chisora and Fury … Bud never been pushed to the hilt like that and has always won with something in hand, pardon the pun.. So with that being said the question is who is P4P - nobody actually knows but if bud was a little bigger and Usyk a little smaller and they fought each other …. Who would win… I say BUD. I think has more overall ability and can find more ways to win… Next into the mix is Inoue …
Yeah I tend to agree with you mate. Also Usyk did all that ON THE ROAD 👀 LOL. Remarkable really. Yeah Bud really has not had a close fight not really been in any trouble really. I know Gamboa hurt and Mean Machine had him over, technically. He's pretty much dominated over 2 divisions. I think if you were shrink Usyk and blow up Bud lol, and they fought, I agree, I'd favor Bud. He's very a very very very special fighter. Cheers as always
Yeah that's why I tend not to really get involved in P4P debates cos at the end of the day they are all amazing humans and you could make a case for either. True blessings to the sport. 👊
Well, considering he started at 135 I'm not sure easy is the right word but I suppose there are harder paths but it's still an amazing achievement should it be done
