    Is Terence Crawford a “master boxer”?

    We all know he’s skilled and he’s a great fighter, but is he a boxing purist in terms of mastering offense and defense?

      He’s a very good boxer but not a MASTER

      MASTER boxers are Floyd Pernell Willie Pep Benny Leonard

      In terms of boxing level Terence is around manny’s league but versatile

            Hard to tell based on his level of competition. He never fought a prime HOF in his prime and now he’s 34.
            Its like when a top college football team hangs 70 on a cupcake team early in the season. Can’t really tell based on that. Have to see them in the SEC against the top dogs.

                  I think Porter will push him

                  Major statement if Terence breaks Porter down and tames him

                  the Porter has yet to be tamed

                  Kell didnt
                  Keith didnt
                  Errol didnt

                    This fight might retire Porter as a boxer. His dirty tactics are a cover for lack of skills. I had even Ugas beating him in a close fight. Bud is a level above all the guys you mentioned.
