    Crawford Should Fight Vergil Ortiz Instead of Josesito Lopez

    Let's skip the beat and let's not pretend that Crawford's next fight wasn't gonna be Josesito Lopez all along. All those names being thrown around are just the usual mumbo jumbos of Bob Arum.

    They can get this kid cheap right now, he brings Mexican fans far more than Josesito Lopez and the hardcore fans really love him. Josesito is perceived as a mediocre by both hardcores and casual's eyes, why then choose this fight when there's a better option like Vergil Ortiz in the same relatively cheap price? Josesito didn't even challenge him like Vergil Ortiz did, there's absolutely no backstory for a Josesito fight.

    Wasn’t aware Crawford or his team even mentioned Lopez as an opponent.

      Dud's a poorman's Keith Thurman w/ this cherrypick. Vergil's youth scares Terence

        Anyone not faded and not a bum scares Crawford. He is probably scared to death of anyone with decent fundamentals, speed and punching power. His chin is suspect as hell. Blown up and inactive Gamboa made him do the booty dew with a massive size disadvantage. Eurobum Mean Machine dropped him. Washed up weight drained quitter Brook damn near closed his eye in a couple rounds before he quit. There's a reason he re-signed with Top Rank and ESPN exclusivity to duck the top guys.

            How do these fights get sanctioned ?

            Might as well give Horn another crack.
