    its a shame he hadnt pushed for a spence fight until spence's body is breaking down. car wreck and new injuries.

    crawford wasted his time fighting bums instead of being in the mix with the best.


    if he was in the 2000 era at welter with dlh, trinidad, mosley, forrest, quarte ect would anyone notice him?

    hes prob the best today but only because spence is broken and its a gap where all the others have aged out and no young bucks stepped up yet
    Agreed. I think he gets hit a lot more since he moved up to welterweight. He seems to have changed his style a bit to sit down on his punches and be more spiteful, so it makes sense he’d get touched more.

    I kinda like the fact he doesn’t mind a scrap or eating one to land a big one. I think as well the fact that everyone makes out he’s so slick makes you more aware of how much he gets hit.

      Crawford proved that he was #1 at 135 and 140. That's much more than Spence ever did.

        Inoue and Loma are the most overrated.

          Spence still has a better overall resume. So does Canelo, Usyk,Loma, and AJ.

              How does Spence have a better resume? Because he beat Mikey Garcia? Other than that they beat the same people at 147 mostly, except Bud beat the top fighters at 135 and 140 too.

                Loma has two losses against a very green Teo and a perennial journeyman in Salido yet is hyped as one of the most talent boxers of all time.

                Inoue goes life and death against bums every other fight.

                  Its like saying the G League MVP would be a great player in the NBA. We have to see them in with the best.
                  Hopefully know that Arum has moved on from Bud he’ll get those chances if he really wants to chase greatness.
                  Zero evidence that Porter was "well past his best." Your hero Canelo takes the crown when it comes to getting credit for beating past prime fighters and "G league" opponents.


                  Also, Crawford moved on from Arum. Not the other way around.

                      No, he's the goods it's just a shame he didn't get the Pacquiao fight after he got all the belts at 140.
