Pretty excited for this. Couldn’t make it to Poto to make a wager but would have put some cash down on Crawford.

I didn’t know he was going up two weight classes but he was so good the last fight I saw him in.

Crawford is +120 right now at Poto. Alvarez -148. I don't know enough about them to bet. When looking at the prop bets it looks like it's expected to go the distance.

Danny Carey? Okay I'm hype.

Now followed up by the song from Desperado. A bunch of dudes in a bar are about to get shot in the face.

Let's go Crawford

Bud's looked good.

Crawford is now the betting favorite

Meanwhile's there's still 8:00 minutes left in Cal/Minnesota. Go Cal.

Man, white a fight for Crawford. I didn't think he'd have his legs that late.

Max Kellerman is funny as hell.

Crawford's a generational talent, what a performance

8-4 with an argument for 9-3 imo

Post #773 » by **MickeyDavis** » Sun Sep 14, 2025 5:47 am

I know this is Pacific time zone but having a great fight that ends at 2 am in the east is no good.

Glad I stayed up for that. Super impressive fight from Crawford. Loved how he kept attacking

Its one of the many big issues with boxing, these events always run super late. Need to take notes from WWE and finish events at a reasonable time.

My estimation of Canelo actually went up a bit. This was a no-win situation from a legacy perspective for Canelo. If he wins, people say that Bud moved up in weight to face him. But he took the fight anyway. Credit to Canelo for being willing to take the tough fights.

Bud just dominated him, though. I had it 117-111 and I thought I was being generous to Canelo.

Canelo deserves props for not ducking this fight. He was also in a tough spot being slightly bigger and stronger and stylistically the more aggressive fighter… Crawford could dodge and weave and chase the decision.

Having said that, two great fighters, Crawford earned and deserved the win.

Netflix is on to something here.

We are in the market for a new washer and dryer. Any recommendations?

My place came with these two Frigidaire appliances and they're shockingly great. Have never had a washer and dryer that have come close.

Washer and Dryer

Huge capacity, quiet, and fast.

We have Electrolux and they are fantastic. A repair guy once told me to stick with those who have always done them. Frigidaire/Electrolux, Whirlpool, GE, Maytag. And always avoid the LG and Samsungs. He said the same for fridges.
