    Madrimov didn't do enough, i think, in my mind

    He blew it early, standing there hippity hopping for 4 rounds instead of throwing leather.

    Won money just because it went distance. Miller clearly won by the way.

    It was close but Bud won the championship rds. He switched into second gear and did enough to win. Good decision.

    Crawford needs to keep his ass at 147/154 and fight baby Zoo, Boots, Vergin Ortiz if he ain’t dying, bean sprout, etc…FORGET about 160+ & Canelo…

    Close fight, could probably have went either way as most rounds were super close even though we knew Crawford would take it.

    No. It was directed at the judges.

    True, Madrimov was looking a bit sloppy at the end even though he was srill landing ''plenty'' (it was a pretty low contact affair overall).

    What about the thing where he said ‘al-Turki was running around saying ‘they’re ruining our plans’ ‘ or something like that while waving his hands in the air imitating him panicking.

    6-6 or 7 5 crawford I thought. Madrimov wasn't active enough. I don't think crawford should keep moving up. He look stunned after a few shots, and he hit madrimov with some heat and never hurt him.

    Miller fight was an actual robbery. Morrell was pretty close too. Had no plan B.

    It was a UD in case you forgot. Madrimov barely did anything in the first 4 rounds.

    Agree. Miller was an outright robbery. And I had money on Miller (not a lot but still he was underdog).

    When you score fights you use all factors including effective aggression and ring generalship. Who did you have winning the fight?

    By the way anyone is welcome to live-score fights alongside me. Next weekend should be a good one too, more the merrier.

    crawford winning 7 to 5 isnt outrageous. he won some of the early rounds where hardly any punches landed.

    Madrimov is good. I have a feeling this win is going to look a lot better years down the line.

    Bud Crawford edged out the win against Madrimov but honestly...he didn't look great. I mean...it was a close fight. Btw all the talk about him moving up to 168 to fight Canelo... I just don't see it. Bud looked amazing against Errol Spence but let's be real...Spence hasn't been the same since his car accident. Crawford didn't face a 100% Spence. Last night Crawford looked pretty basic nothing special. Madrimov's tough...sure but he's only had 10 pro fights...even with his big amateur background. I just wasn't impressed. Crawford didn't shine and thinking he can take on Canelo at 168 is nuts. Maybe he can handle 154 or 160, but 168? No way. Canelo would destroy him. Crawford needs to rethink if he believes he can beat Canelo.

    Crawford should still take the Canelo fight if His Excellency can make it happen. What does he have to do lose? Worst case, he gets knocked out. Even so, it won't impact his legacy. All the pressure will be on Canelo.

    You wish he's pretty average.

    madrimov is elite. there is a reason he was able to fence with crawford and think on that same level that NO one else has been able to do. very awkward fighter who made sure not to fall into a pattern of attack that crawford could capitalize on.

    Did Madrimov throw and or land any of his haymaker shots? He seemed to have pretty good accuracy on them and wasn't afraid to let them go from what I saw beforehand.

    He would be more elight if he was trained by Manny Steward.
