Crawford is not ready for the top WWs at WW just yet , he is still green and a little sloppy , Roach he reminds him of a young Mayweather but more pop , well Floyd would never get hit with what TC is getting caught with because he was a lot quicker and much better feet , TC cant be taking them shots off the best from the next division up .
I see great things in TC but he is also a little ragged and loose , they dont wanna be fckn around with weight not just yet anyways , he needs to stay at 140 and the best fight I see that will answer all the questions is Manny P at 140 .
Stop. "prime" Mayweather was careless and smacked around plenty. Eating combos was one of his favourite pastimes, something you'd never see his "past prime" version take.

Terence Crawford one of the very few American fighters who isn't ducking everyone and taking handpicked opponents all the time. We need more boxers from the USA like him. He's taking a few risks. I think he'd get in there with anyone. I'd pick him over Thurman
That is a tough call because Brook is going to be coming back down and he looked like he bulked up for Golovkin. Coming back down in that situation is a lot to on overcome.
Spence is a force offensively, he leaves something to be desired defensively but his offense more than covers for that.
I believe Spence to have the advantage at range but Brook will be able to land his own and if he can land then tie Spence up he will frustrate Spence gaining the advantage. However, with the weight dropping and the leg stabbing I give Spence the edge because he is certainly the younger fresher guy and he will bring the fight to Brook.
Tough call though
What about Brook vs Crawford
Spence vs Crawford.
How do you see a Brook fight and a Spence fight.

Spence is so much bigger physically, I think Crawford could box him but don't think Spance would really allow for that he is a seak and destroy guy superior to Porter although probably less tricky. I would think Spence could make it work but it would be very difficult.
Brook would box him but if he mucks it up and ties him up I think he could make it work possibly. Still with the dropping of weight and the leg stabbing I don't think he is really what he once was and think Crawford could really box him. I like Crawford in just about any boxing contest so i would like him against the current form of Brook.
Tough call though
I agree I think Thurman is better in strictly boxing terms offensively and defensively than Porter. However he is a simplistic boxer, while Crawford has excellent boxing ability, so in a chess match Crawford can beat him.
Porter is not going to allow it to really be a chess match and would really push Crawford and I don;t know that Crawford's effort level would allow that to work out in Crawford's favor.
Both would be interesting though

Good point. He has never faced someone who can cut off the ring like Porter. But Thurman is the better defender and offensove fighter. Crawford is jusy more versatile.

I think Crawford can handle Thurman because Crawford is a better boxer and Thruman is rather straight forward boxer puncher. Thurman could always hurt Crawford and Crawford is a rather inconsistent fighter so Thruman has a shot but in a boxing contest Crawford beats him.
A guy like Porter would would be much more difficult for Crawford I think.

With that logic man is Errol Spence is bigger than GGG because GGG started his professional Career at 140.
Well that's because Spence is younger, wait a couple year and he's going to go up in weight, then he could fight GGG. But first he must win the title at 147. Anyway, height dosen't mean everything, it's also about frame and you can tell 147 is probably the limit for Crawford frame. I think 140 is perfect for him, he should stay there. Going to bed cya!
Spence isn't actually a "much" bigger guy than Crawford. Crawford rehydrates to 155-157 and spence at 154-156, they are the same size with both of them standing at 5'9.
Well actually Crawford is listed at 5'8. Crawford started his career at 135 while Spence started at 147 and is considered a big 147.
What happened when he fought Gamboa? What do you think Thurman would to him. He hasnt fought and beaten anyone that makes me think that he would beat Thurman.
People always bring that up, it's unclear if Gamboa hurt Crawford in round 9. Yet, other than that, he never looked to be hurt in the ring and yet everyone who hate Crawford will accuse him of suspect chin. Anyway, haters gonna hate, Gamboa was too small, Postol was too robotic, Molina was too drained, other fighters are all bums, whatever.
