Is Terence Crawford a “master boxer”?

[Carpe Diem]

Carpe Diem nitpicks Terence abilities once per month

what’s really going on

I’m just trying to figure him out as a boxer. He shows signs of being great in most of his fight, but I’m still not fully convinced he’s a “once in a lifetime” type of boxer.

How many master boxers get their eye swollen shut by the empty shell of Kell Brook? Let us see how he does against someone good.

The bold: Do you consider Porter "someone good"?

He starting to fight the best guys. we’ll find out who he really is soon

I see this as a transitional era

it’ll take sometime before the next super great arrives

My guess is the Porter fight will make him look like 1.

'TBC' does it all.

Now, one notable trait that most fans have recognized from Terence is his ability to effectively switch from orthodox to southpaw, but what goes unnoticed his how 'Bud' is a great body-puncher ; Crawford, unlike many 'slick' boxers steps into range and stands his ground as he anticipates his opponents hands ( left or right ) whilst he rolls with the attack to mitigate the force of the blow and counters with sharp-whipping hooks to the body -- that is taking a big risk, yet time and time again Terence wins the exchanges.

Its important to note that Crawford long arms are not suitable to execute these techniques in the inside, yet 'Bud' is able to fight like a small fighter. This ability is very rare, most trainers would argue that Terence should take advantage of his natural gifts and fight tall from long range, but we see Crawford beating the smaller opponents in their own style.

'Buds' timing, poise, and variant methods of attack is incredible, he can hurt you with both hands: with a jab, a straight-cross, left-right-hook, overhand, uppercut, bolo, jab to the body, hooks and uppers to the abdomen, ribs and organs. TBC has mastered every offense in the book of prize-fighting, most boxers, even the elite ; have one of two punches that they rely on and not even perfected them.

Below is what's going to happen to Shawn Porter, when Porter tries to press Crawford in the inside.

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

Stop hatin'. He's a master boxer.

Hopefully he gets the best guys in the ring before they are shopworn unlike your boy Floyd

[FinlandsFinest]

Yeah he is. Thats why I wanna see him and Spence to stop playing around and fight each other.

Get these two master boxer cowards in the ring!
These guys wont fight each other for MILLIONS, i'll fight both on the same night and get KO'd twice for ONE million. Coward boxers at it once again. Divas. Pu$$ies

[BodyBagz]

He's more of a puncher, no ?

And with his sorry line up, he has no choice but to look like a super hero.
