Is Terence Crawford the best counter puncher in boxing?

[Hov]

I believe he is. His timing, ability to punch with and in between his opponents punches are second to none. A lot of people say they don't see anything special about Crawford and I agree with that sentiment. I agree in the sense that he is not a supremely talented or naturally gifted fighter. He is not an athletic specimen and he does not blow you away with any of his physical gifts like hand speed, foot speed, quickness, power, reflexes, etc. He's unimpressive athletically but his acumen, fight IQ, ability to adapt and adjust is what makes him great.

I would compare him to someone like Larry Bird. He's not much too look at, won't wow you athletically, but he's skilled and his IQ and knowledge of the game is how he dominates.

He’s in the conversation but I got Canelo ahead of him

[KillaMane26]

Him and Canelo, Loma too.

Idk if I can pick one over the other they all counter punch different but effective.

Speaking of, I miss seeing Marquez, definitely my favorite counter puncher of all time

[TreyShaw]

Canelo is the best counter puncher today and has been for a while now.

Crawford is up there too.

[Carpe Diem]

Canelo and Loma are better and efficient imo. Crawford is greater at imposing his will when he needs to.

[TernceBudCharlo]

He certainly is, Bud's timing, hand speed, foot speed and counterpunching is unparalleled

...Canelo!

Canelo is actually a bit Slicker and Cleaner than Bud defensively IMO but nothing but respect to both fighters, both are at the Top of most P4P Rankings for a Reason and deservedly so

That counter of ggg would make Mayweather proud

[lopetego]

No, Canelo is better

Specially when it comes to countering to the body. Nobody is better than Canelo at doing that

Nah he's got good upper body movement and reflexes but he only looks like that against slow plodding opponents, put him in there with someone like a porter if porter was his size and he wouldn't look fast at all, his feet have always been very slow
