Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor On Challenging Crawford: It's A Massive Fight; I Believe He's The Best Welterweight

Crawford KO’s this racist POS.

Hell you sound racist too!

PBC fighters can rest easy. I'd be confident Floyd has had a word with Al not to make any match ups with Crawford. That way if he beats Floyd's 49, he can claim he has a weak ass record. Oh, and far less money of course.

Crawford KO’s this racist POS.

Is he really racist?

In regards to the thread,

If Crawford isn't going to fight Ugas or Spence next, then by all means, fight Josh Taylor. I DO NOT want to see Crawford go back to fighting sardine canners.

Taylor, a very good fighter, wouldn't say great. Crawford is deservedly pound for pound status as one of the best.

I do think, however, that Crawford might avoid Jaron Ennis like the plague.

Explain that statement would you?

Crawford will crack Josh sometime in the fight--and it will be over. Can't see Josh beating the beast from Omaha. Maybe Crawford fights Charlo at 154 if he wants a dangerous challenge.

Taylor should stay right where he is and pick off the 135 guys as they move up, starting with teo.

Exactly. Taylor doesn't even impress me period. He's a skilled southpaw. Which makes him a difficult guy to fight. But he's not one of those monster KO guys at 140. There's been alot of great 140 lb'ers . He's good, not great. He's of average power at 140. He'd be at a great deficit at 147. One of Spence's right uppercuts would lift this kid right out of the ring. Yes, I'd much prefer to see Taylor fight Teo and Loma, Tank etc. If Crawford thinks he did bad with PPV buys with Porter, he'll do even less with Taylor. On the other hand, Crawford fighting Charlo would get him at least 500,000 buys.

i recently said Bud should say f..k Bob and his stable of fighters but on second thought, maybe Bud should knock out every good fighter Bob has in and around his weight, to put a hurting on old Marijuana Bob for stalling his career the way he did, and all the disrespectful things he said about Bud over the years

[Sosay]

I like Taylor but Bud smokes him easily. Taylor will have a lot to prove at WW because it's night and day compared to 140.

The only thing holding Crawford back from being universally recognized as # 1 is the fact that he’s had an entire stable of welterweights avoid him. But if you base your p4p list on who would be the best if size wasn’t a factor, there’s isn’t anyone I’d pick to beat Crawford.

Disagree.... I don't see Crawford beating a Canelo, Loma, GGG, or Ennus due to his leaky defense. He has never been in the ring with a puncher
