WOW! Eduard Troyanovsky just destroyed Keita Obara in the 2nd round, he knocked him out of the ring Gerald McClellan - Nigel Benn style, that **** went 0 to 100 real fast
Who else at 140 has any momentum. There really isn't any good fights for him at 140, unless a 135er moves up or crawford moves to 147.. It's a nice stay busy for crawford
So you're against undisputed champion per divisions?
I'm not saying he shouldn't unify but it's hardly a fight that NEEDS to happen.
nice ko but i don't think he's ready for crawford....too slow.
also i think postol outboxes & hurts him.
be a good stay busy fight and nothing more really.
This is a joke right? Toryanovsky or whatever his name is is only a champ cos of the IBFs ridiculously low level of contenders and the fact that 140 is a faded division right now.
TC shouldnt be fighting middle aged men unless he is fighting Manny or Mayweather.

Why not? A fighter shouldn't care where it takes place, as long as it takes place.
All the more reason to go. A champion who is willing to fight anywhere on any terms strikes more fear into his opponents than one who sets conditions and is reluctant to travel.
Eh. It's nice n all but that's not the reality of this sport. We all know that. You want to make money, you fight in America and if you are the champ you don't have to concede much unless it's money involved. Finally fighting in Russia does not benefit a guy like Crawford, trying to get those American TV deals. Like I said, there's literally o reason for it

Crawford needs to fight this guy since he didnt get manny

He doesn't deserve anything from Crawford.
have you ever posted anything but irrational nonsense? you must know people don't take you seriously, there's probably fl0mos that laugh at how obvious your agenda is.
...........
for anyone else wondering, seeing as how Crawford runs 140, Troya is a good stay busy fight, I'm not saying he has to get it...I'd rather Crawford move up but why not grab another belt if he's gonna stick around? Furthermore, unless there's a bigger money fight at 147 for Crawford, he can wait on Mikey to come up for a big event.

ok but theres no reason to go to russia lol.. unless someones throws down some crazy money.. its his division
why would crawford fight this nobody in russia? he loses to broner crawford and rances

Why would he do that when he's the champion?

so this thread quickly turned into crawford talk and hypothetical talk of broner winning if he's not lazy, but back to the fight...altho i predicted Troya would have a fairly easy time here, I'm disappointed Obara was just letting so many of those punches through for the ref to stop it because I don't think he was out on his feet - maybe just the momentum of it all prevented him from composing himself after falling through the ropes??? Obara is a well conditioned guy, good endurance, he can take a shot....his lack of defense made the ref step in.
As for Crawford-Troya, Troya deserves a shot at excelling his career, I don't think he'll be able to deal with Crawford's defensive or offensive speed however.
It would be a pretty boss move to go to the other guys home and take his belt in front of his fans. Crawford seems like he's that guy.
But Freedumb is only saying this because it is a white Russian....
Im pretty sure you're trolling. You just trying to ruffle some feathers.
troya is 36 and best win is an old ass feather fisted Argentinian with 2 kos.. im not impressed
crawford is the champion. You know what i meant. Crawford is king of the division. There's literally no reason for him to bend over n travel.
come on man you know why he is posting this rubbish
Troya is the IBF champion.
The fight would make more money in Moscow, because Crawford's running style isn't as exciting and entertaining as Troya's "seek and destroy" style.
Crawford once fought in Scotland without the benefit of a home referee, but Burns isn't nearly as good as Troya.
lol at IBF champ..Crawford is the fvcking Lineal champion...the MAN!!!!
