    Sure if time stopped after that moment it would have aged well. Unfortunately that's not the case and Hurd (whom I'm a fan of) has looked nothing but unimpressive and J-Rock has managed to lose by stoppage to Rosario and lackluster decision to Brian Mendoza.

      - - Much closer to a dumbo question than a great fighter...next...

        What are you referencing when saying that I rate Crawford "so high"? You asked a question but it seems that you already have an answer in your head. Would you have questioned my answer if I had said Jermall was great?

        ​​​​​​I don't recall mentioning Crawford in my response but since you did, I will say that I don't recall Crawford ever looking like Charlo did against Juan Macias Montiel. Montiel was a guy who Munguia sparked out in 2 rounds. I don't recall Crawford going to decision where I had doubts whether or not he deserved the nod like Charlo did against Korobov or even Trout.

        As for your assertion that JRock and Derevyenchenko are better wins than anything Crawford has I would argue that Porter and Postol are superior.
        Based on what? Porter lost to Spence, Brook, Thurman, Ugas, and Danny

          Seriously, when you typed the names above for your response do you really feel that they are the same level of quality as Brian Mendoza and Jeison Rosario? Or Carlos Adames? Porter has only lost to top ranked opponents? For the record, Garcia lost to Porter.

          As I previously stated, you posted your question with only one answer that you'd accept. Since it's Christmas time, I will give you a gift and agree with you. Sure Sheldon, Jermall is great! Not only is he great, he's an all time great!! His win over a one-legged Heiland tells me he'd beat Carlos Monzon and Marvin Hagler on the same night. Lions only Sheldon. Lions only.

              It's hard to quantify "great", but if we we go by the definition of great as "considerably above the average", I'd say Jermall qualifies.
              Of course that's only my opinion.

                Both Charlos are good, not great fighters.

                Looks to me they're gonna be rather forgotten as soon as they stop making all that noise. I, for one, don't see myself remembering them in awe ten years from now.

                  Can't think of any conquerors who wanted to be considered among the greats that decided beating up on weak countries would be enough to cement their place in history while larger, stronger empires existed to challenge lol.

                    jermal charlo is 31 years old now, been fighting for some time.

                    list out his top 5 wins, that should give you your answer on how good a fight career he has had now that his prime is basically over

                      How can he be called great when he refuses to fight Andrade and Benavidez?
                      Two step up fights that have been made available to him for months now.
                      It's okay if you don't want to, but stop pretending you're some lion when you're not.
