    How many black fighters has Terence Crawford fought?
    This is an extremely weird question. Is the suggestion that he avoids black fighters for some reason? Prefers them? Tries to fight an ethnically diverse list of boxers? I mean, I suppose if you're a star fighter, picking opponents is kind of like casting them in a movie.

      I just want to know the number of black fighters he has fought.

      Since he claims another fighter shied away from them he's open to the same question.

        Abouts 10 according to boxrec, but the early bit of his career is a bunch of faceless so probably a bit more.

            Hank Lundy is black, but he sucks so he might as well just be a stiff Euro bum.

              Gamboa, Hank, Brook, and Indongo have black skin like Crawford, but if Black means Andrade/Charlo type, I'm not sure if Crawford fought any "black" fighters

              Again, Crawford didn't have to say Canelo never fights black guys, Bud could've just said Canelo shied away from Andrade/Charlo. For him to bring in the race card is just pathetic and shows how he's reaching since no one ever goes to his fight except his friends and family from Nebraska.

              There was a lot of Black guys across the street in Devon, Berto, Dulorme, James, Ugas, Broner, Porter, Thurman, Spence, heck PBC even had someone with the name Black that Crawford could've fought if he crossed over. Crawford could've fought a black guy with Black in his name. What more Black can Crawford ask for.

              So looking at the list of available "black" guys, it seems Crawford is the one who shied away from the "black" guys.

                  He's a good fighter but his resume leaves a lot to be desired.
