    No. People sh** on 140 but the HW division is terrible. It’s equally bad if not worse. There’s essentially only four guys that matter. Fury, Usyk, Wilder and AJ. AJ has only fought one of those guys and lost widely. He has several other solid wins vs top 10 guys but nothing against a top 3 guy.

    Crawford has a much better resume than people give him credit for. If you actually look at where guys were ranked when he fought them, it’s very solid. He’s beat several guys ranked top 3 when he fought them.

        Since Crawford moved to 147, he's been on the wrong side of the street. What do you want the guy to do lol. AJ's resume is carefully crafted like virtually any superstar's.
        Crawford paid a washed up Amir khan 4 million to fight him. That's not chump change. Top rank paid Kell Brook who was over the hill a fair amount also and was competitive with Crawford until he was hit for the first time. I'm not suggesting Crawford doesn't want the smoke but his team are not overly keen to put him in with stiff competition. Yes i get the PBC bullsh*it but setting up fights with the likes of Kell Brook and Khan tells me all i need to know about team Crawford's quest to prove they are the best

          how the mighty have fallen, before getting sparked out by fat Andy, Joshua fanbois were comparing him to ATGs like Lennox Lewis, now all they have to fall back on is his resume in a weak HW era and comparing it with Crawford, who almost everyone agrees has a weak resume for his high P4P ranking. The bar keeps getting lower, next they'll be saying at least Joshua has a better chin than Khan lol

            Who else could they have fought? Do you really think any of the PBC guys would have made a fight with him?

              That still doesn't matter, just like ggg Bud has been all too happy to sit it out fighting bums like Khan,Brook, etc.

              The bottom line is that AJ should be ranked higher p4p than Bud(before he lost at least)

                  Waren't you saying that Wilder deserves tons of credit for winning less than 6 rds out of 30 v Fury just because he has powerful punches?(v a fat unusually immobile Kronk Fury.)

                  That's what's wrong with" aye tsst doe",when Bud was rated over Canelo,Fury,Usyk & AJ it was"aye tsst doe",but when Boots Ennis looks far more dangerous at ww & impressive than Bud ever has,its now"he needs to fight somebody"

                    I don't even know what you're talking about with a lot of that. Dulorme is not exactly in great form, and he isn't exactly a WW. I like Boots but that fight didn't tell us much.

                    Crawford-Dulorme was at 140, and Dulorme had won 6 in a row going in. Boots-Dulorme was at 147 and Dulorme had won 1 of his last 5 going in. Why do people act like they don't understand stuff like this?
