Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about this Canelo fella and this Crawford guy. Folks are makin’ a big fuss about ’em, sayin’ they wanna see ’em fight. Canelo vs. Crawford, they call it. Sounds like a big to-do, but honestly, I ain’t so sure what all the hoopla’s about.
Now, I heard tell that this Crawford fella, he’s hurt. Can’t fight till after next year sometime. So, right there, that kinda puts a damper on things, don’t it? You can’t have a fight if one fella’s laid up, now can ya?
And from what I gather, this fight, it ain’t even what folks really wanna see. Seems like they’d rather watch Canelo tussle with this Benavidez boy. Said he earned it or somethin’. But these fellas, they got their own ideas, I reckon. Always gotta be some kinda drama, ain’t there?
- They say this fight is more than just a belt. It’s about who’s the best, pound for pound. Sounds fancy, but I figure it just means they wanna prove who’s the toughest rooster in the coop.
- And this Crawford, he’s been yappin’ about fightin’ Canelo for a good while now. A whole year, they say. Guess he figures he’s got somethin’ to prove. Or maybe he just wants a big payday. Can’t blame a fella for that, I suppose.
But then there’s this other thing. Seems like there’s always somethin’ gettin’ in the way. New problems poppin’ up left and right. Makes ya wonder if it’ll ever even happen. They build it up, build it up, and then, poof! Nothin’. Just a lot of hot air.
Now, Canelo, he just had himself a surgery on his wrist. Got back in the ring not too long ago and beat some fella named Ryder. Kept his title, they say. Undisputed somethin’ or other. Super middle somethin’. Too many words for my likin’. Just means he’s the champ, I guess.
And this Crawford, he used to say Canelo was too big for him. Now he wants to fight him? Makes a body scratch their head, don’t it? Maybe he changed his mind. Or maybe he sees dollar signs. Who knows with these fellas?
These fellas make a whole lotta money, you know. Tens of millions, they say. For one fight! Can ya imagine? That’s more money than I’ll see in ten lifetimes. They get paid just for showin’ up, and then they get more if folks watch it on that pay-per-view thing. It’s a whole different world, I tell ya.
Canelo, he’s been beat before. That Mayweather fella, and some other guy with a name I can’t even pronounce. But he keeps comin’ back, lookin’ for a new fight. Says he wants new challenges. Guess that’s what makes him a champion, or so they say.
And if this fight ever does happen, it’ll be in Las Vegas, at that T-Mobile place. Big fancy arena, I bet. Not like the dusty old ring they used to have down at the county fair. Times have changed, that’s for sure.
So, there you have it. That’s what I know about this Canelo versus Crawford business. A whole lotta talk, a whole lotta money, and a whole lotta maybes. Me? I’ll believe it when I see it. And even then, I ain’t sure I’ll understand what all the fuss was about. Just two fellas punchin’ each other, far as I can tell. But hey, that’s what folks like, so who am I to judge?
Anyways, fighting is fighting, makes no difference who against who. They just young fellas who like to fight and got people all excited for a fight, but the fight might not even happen. I’ve seen things like this before, lots of talking and not much happening.
If they wanna fight, they gonna fight. If not, they not. Simple as that. All this talkin’ just fills up the newspapers and gets folks all worked up for nothin’. I’d rather spend my time gardenin’ than listenin’ to all this yakkin’ about a fight that might not even happen.
And another thing, these fellas need to stop all the posturing and just get on with it or quit yapping. It’s like a bunch of hens clucking in the yard. Makes a body tired just listenin’ to it. They either gonna fight or they ain’t. No need to drag it out and make a big spectacle of it all.
