Comments Thread For: Crawford: Even If It Was A Knockdown Against 'Mean Machine,' Whoop-De-Do! He Got Knocked Out

[ShoulderRoll]

Spence has been with PBC for how long and couldn’t get a Thurman fight. He had a belt & was under the same banner. Thurman didn’t want it so it didn’t happen.

My argument still holds true none of these guys have ever called out Crawford. He has been calling them out. His team has made offers to Porter, Danny & Thurman. They all said the money wasn’t right but never countered. Never approached Crawford with an offer to call his bluff.

Why does Crawford have to chase them? He’s the champ. Why is the champ chasing challengers? Why don’t they leave PBC to pursue a fight with him? Why should Crawford have to leave his promoter to fight them ? - When Fury and Wilder both have fought twice under different promotions. Its just another excuse to not fight. It’s up to the fighters. If they really wanna fight they can make it happen. None of them wanna fight him though.

Yordenis Ugas wanted to fight Crawford and would have done it on ESPN. For a relatively low purse too.

Until he got a belt.

This chinless thug would get severely wrecked against Ortiz

Really? What was his offer?

so if Ugas was willing to do it, what’s the excuse for all the other welterweights over there?

Thug? I thought he was a boxer? I had no idea he was a career criminal

So… that was 7 years ago…Gamboa who was a great fighter at the time, momentarily clipped a bigger man for a few seconds of a fight with a good shot. He never touched the canvas and then knocked Gamboa out..

So…what does that have to do with Porters lack of punching power ?

Porter debuted at 154.

Crawford I believe debuted at 130.

Basic math, dude. So

Chinless thug just because he got in trouble a few times, who hasn't? That would be like saying ur moms is a bj thug just because she slobbed a few hundred knobs in her lifetime. That wouldn't mean she's a bj thug would it?

Ahhh okay I got it. So…. Buds gonna get wobbled or knocked out by the guy who in 10 years has only knocked out a journeyman, a washed Paulie Malinaggi, & a washed Andre Berto (who quit because of headbutts). - All because he debuted at a lower weight than Porter.

Makes sense.. but wait! Didn’t Broner debut at 130? & didn’t he drop Porter who’s debut was at 154? Interesting…

I’ve always liked Crawford but at 34 his prime days are numbered. Damn shame that he has all that talent and not one significant win.

To me he’s a thug and that’s it
