I'd like to see this fight. I think Bud wins. But would be a real skillful and tactical fight with a big climax. Bud by KO. I hope it happens. Taylor does have a chance though. 60/40 fight.

He's been talking a lot about Bud lately. He better not fight Catteral after all of this. Either call Bid out now (he'll accept asap) or move to 147 and fight someone of note. Otherwise I don't care to hear this if he's still fighting at 140. The only good fight is Ramirez, no one else at 40 moves the needle. I hope he isn't just talking.

mikey garcia @140lb does not move the needle??????

Lol. Not really. Crawford not desperate for any fight. He'd just as soon walk away from any fight not to his liking. He's satisfied with where he is. Been at or near top p4p for years.

Taylor is top dog at 140 right now, but he would get mopped at welterweight by anyone in the Top 5 and virtually every top prospect. Ortiz Jr. and Boots would crush Josh fairly easily.

The #1. boxing authority has assessed Josh Taylor, guess what? Josh Taylor is overrated ; the boxing expert does not give Josh Taylor a shot at any of the top welterweights, never mind the #1. P4P Terence Crawford.

i like Taylor. He is the type of fighter boxing needs more of. He makes no excuses and will fight anyone. Taylor,Jose Ramirez,Jermell Charlo,Boots Ennis,Vergil Ortiz,Maurice Hooker,Brian Castano,and maybe a hand full of others will take on anyone at any time to prove they are the best in their division. They don't make outrageous purse demands to keep great fights from happening. They just go out and do their best to get the job done. That is what boxing used to be when I fell in love with sport. You were as apt to catch a great fight on one of the networks on a Sat. afternoon as you were on HBO. Only the biggest super fights were on closed circuit and off limits to the average consumer. Now you have Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia on ppv. But Jermell Charlo Brian Castano will be on regular Showtime. That will be a much better fight than anything announced so far for PPV. Manny- Spence has the apprearance of a superfight,but Spence is too big and young for Manny at this point in their careers. The ONLY fight fans should pay for at WW is Spence - Crawford. Unless of course you're talking DAZN prices. That's about what these ppvs are worth with their predetermined outcomes. Peace.

I think Crawford wouldn't mind going to Scotland again, for the right price! I'm just interested to see who he's fighting in October! Zepeda? Josesito Lopez? Jose Ramirez?

The top 5 still includes 2 of thurman, garcia and porter. I think Taylor would beat any of those three with porter being the toughest. The only three i would definitely pick over him are spence and crawford and ennis with taylor being the betting favorite over ennis.
