This is the Ward-Kovalev of super lightweight. I really would like to see this fight. Who do you think would win and is there anyone else you would prefer Crawford to fight instead?

I like this fight and I hope it happens. I think TC isn't trying to follow in anyones footsteps and trying to do what people think he should do. I think Crawford is trying to pave his own way to the top and not try to use an old Manny Pacquiao to do so. Fighting fights like this and collecting all the belts will gain him the respect he deserves while staying busy against prime Champs (all forward progress). One can only dream he gets the winner of Broner vs. Burns after he beats Troyanonski.
Have to beat Keita Obara first which will be his biggest test so far. Obara is a solid fighter seeing him toe to toe with Walter Castillo, I thought he won that fight but it was a Draw
But yes I would love to see a Unification bout but Rances Barthelemy is now at 140 and he is already rated HIGH by the IBF in that Division so he might have Barthelemy to worry about before doing a unification bout but I would love to see a unification bout
Crawford should win it. These two are not as good as Ward and Kovalev are.
Crawford is actually better than Kovalev. Much better. But yeah, Troyanovski is not as good as Kovalev. I rank them like this:
1: Ward
2: Crawford
3: Kovale
4: Troyanovski
It's pretty obvious that Crawford would win, yeah, but Troyanovski is a good boxer and he's definetely the best opponent for Crawford at the moment.
Troyanovsky is much more techically skilled then he gets credit for, heres from an artitcle i read on ************
"One oddity about Troyanovsky is his Russian trainer Roman Anuchin. He has trained several fighters in the Mayweather gym and he is the only coach to successfully replicate Roger Mayweather’s mitt drills, which he has used for many years. He frequents the Mayweather gym and was there as early as September 2015 working with Yoann Kongolo. He is the head Russian coach, and he is one of the most skillful trainers in the world using pad work and mitts. He is an elite trainer. He has taken Troyanovsky’s skill to a brand new level since he was first introduce to the fighter in 2010. One of the most successful stories of dedication and hard work, and youtube has plenty of clips to prove it. Anuchin proudly wears TMT gear every time he gets on camera. He is a big fan of the Mayweather gym."
Troyanovsky is really talented but his downside is his advanced age of 35, and also his upcoming matchup vs Keita Obara will really show how good Troyanovsky is, Cause Obara is pretty damn skilled himself and also punches very hard
i'd like to see it but i wouldn't expect troya to stand much chance of winning
the positives are that he'd apply more pressure than postol did and hits harder, but the negatives are that he's easier to hit and, like postol, favours a range that crawford is very comfortable in and would likely be beaten to the punch all night
