As shown below:
Crawford's trainer picked John Molina and not Diaz in his last fight because according to him, "he's tailor made for Crawford."

Just imagine if Sanchez or Roach said the same thing about their fighters' picks.
Crawford does NOT want that work.
this fight was an obvious duck for crawford and the main reason he didnt win fighter of the year..if he took this fight and won it he'd have 2 fighter of the year award in less than 3 years
carmben B, joe fraizer, ali, leanard, hagler, holyfield, pac, floyd...those are the only ppl on that list that he missed out on joining...HE DUCKED GREATNESS ..still a fan of his bc he isnt the only one doing it out here, but straght up duck no doubt
thenboxing business does not want this guy around. diaz
was a last
minute replacemt opponent, and dude knocked sammys mouthpiece outta his mouth 3 or 4 times. he beat the stuffinnout of sammy vasquez and the judges ruled it a draw. sammy is one tough dude but diaz beat him 9-1 and the judges scored it a draw. thank god the ref wasnt in on the fix--he made them deduct the penalty point that somehow they forgot about.
i dont see crawford havin much trouble with him, but the rest of 140 will lose. hard to say at 147. hes frickin good tho.
Better chance of hitting the powerball .. They won't put Crawford in against a virtual nobody with the talent of Diaz...doesn't make sense on a business level...
cRAWFORD IS ducking Felix Diaz, Diaz is a real fighter with skills and grit.
Prior to that, they said Crawford would duck Viktor Postol. We saw what happened there.
They said Crawford was unworthy of going to Scotland to fight for Ricky Burns title. They said, that should've been Beltran's title. We saw what happened there.
So how much longer, will you guys continue to doubt Bud. He fights the best, he fights the guys you say he will duck, and he dominates them one after the next.
At what point does a fighter earn the benefit of the doubt? To trust that media leaks are false, and he fully intends to take on the toughest challenges. He is building his resume off high risk and low reward fights.
I thought you would be making a different point. Tc was a 19-1 favorite or something like that, and there were still people saying he would duck this fight.
To me it shows that there are a ton of posters with agendas that talk out of their butt when it comes to fighters they don't like.
It literally has little to do with the fighters themselves.

lololololololol
These peeps should hang their heads in shame. Diaz is a weakling
Crawford has not proven anything but fight underside opponents and you can quote me on that. He needs to move up to 147 and that's when we will know if he is the real deal
Didn't Diaz outweigh him last night?
It'd be dumb to abandon 140 when he's so close to unifying it. To be the first man since Hopkins to unite all four major titles would put him in the Hall of Fame immediately
Also he's clearly a more complete fighter than any of the welters. He will mop up that division if politics allow the fights to be made
i have no idea why anyone was hyping diaz and i said that all along. said in the pick em predictions. that diaz was useless, all these guys apart from crawford at 140 are ****e, im fed up of having to keep telling people that.
Crawford may be the most dominant 140 pounder ever.

He's already the real deal. 147 is to go from being an elite fighter to a hall of fame fighter

not being serious. just saying whys everyone making out like crawford has proved a point by signing for this fight. hes not signed up to fight king kong, hes signed up to fight past prime lamont petersons leftovers :lol1:
You're asking the wrong person. Look at all those quotes.
Damn PBP you called everybody out on this lol......
Gotta let them know!!
Lamont Peterson leftovers..........
Don't be the next to get put on that summer jam screen

Now this is how you do it. Name and shame. Take notes Jubei, _Maxi, ad bigdramashow
Guide to Boxing Scene:
1) Claim Fighter A will duck Fighter B.
2) Act incredulous when the fights gets made.
3) Find an excuse for Fighter A beating Fighter B (boring, clinching, headbutts, etc.) and pretend that Figher A's tactics invalidates their victory.
Rinse. Wash. Repeat.
Yep. They never get bored of it.
Nobody wants to get Jubei'ed. That's like getting Gatti'ed but on a forum.
:lol1:
Lots of people say lots of things. It's just talk and it means nothing. Crawford has the great respect of the vast majority of boxing fans and experts and that's all a boxer can hope for.
to be fair alot of guys was claiming tc was ducking diaz when the molina fight got made....proper credit to pbp on this one.......thatsaid pbp is the king of quotes i got called out in a rigo thread awhile ago.....no need for any guys to take it personal....it all just for fun and good laughs to be honest....
Molina was a stay busy fight and it was planned after Canelo and GGG didn't fight on Dec'16
Diaz is a good fight and I wouldn't be surprised if it went the distance for Bud..
I don't think Bud would try to duck anyone..

We argued about this for like 5 pages bruh :lol1:
You was sure that TC would not take this fight. It might if actually been in YOUR thread. You were the main instigator
Damn PBP you called everybody out on this lol......
