Is Crawford in the same class as Mayweather, Leonard, Duran or more in the Class of Oscar, Mosley...

    You get no argument from me there. I just think Shane Mosley was poorly managed. And the judge had the nerve to give that bit.ch 3 of Mosley’s belts.
    If Bud was 25 instead of 35, I'd be more understanding

      Well skill for skill he is there with Oscar De La Hoya & Shane Mosley.

      But I don't think he has any win on his record, that those fighters would not obliterate

      Terrence Crawford is unbeaten, but his resume is nothing out of this world.

      What is his best win? Who has he beaten at Welter Weight? Shawn Porter would be beaten down badly vs Oscar De La Hoya, and sparked out by Mosley.

      So he is probably around the level of De La Hoya & Mosley skill for skill. But I think those fighter hit with more power, and where physically stronger.

        Well there's different levels to the fighters mentioned but... Crawford isnt there yet. He might have been a great fighter, but we'll never know. The era of in house fights and a fractured sport ruined what could have been.

        I hate promoters. I wish HBO had cut them out back in the day and act as the UFC does today.

          With his best win against a faded Porter coming off a long layoff? Hahahahahah **** no.

              Oscar, Mosley, Tito, and Whitaker would be in the mix with the other Champs from 147nto 154, but they would not be undisputed or title holders imo

                Brook, Khan, Porter would've been titleholders in the 2000s and 90s

There are days when I feel as though he is overrated but then there a days I feel he is greater than many fighters we have seen. Would you say, Crawford, as a boxer, is in the same class as Manny, Floyd, Leonard, and Duran? Or is he just another Oscar, Mosley, Pernelle, Tito, Vernon....etc
                  I guess you are a Mayweather shill, but it seems the goal of this thread is that you are putting Mayweather amongst Leonard and Duran. There is no evidence of that so stop pretending. Last time Ive seen Mayweather he lost to a youtuber and a few fights before that he almost got layed down against a former jr. WW in Maidana, and he was powerless in every other fight. No fighter in the last 10 yrs of FMW career ever had a scratch to their face, it always was a meaningless dancing contest in which FMW was the better dancer.

                    Porter apart from being tough, game and persistence does not really have elite level skills.

                    Where as Brook & Khan had elite level attributes.

                    I think Skill for skill maybe Kell Brook would of had the best chance of being a title holder in the 90's & 2000's.

                    Amir Khan well? He could so easily biltz his opponents, but at the same time get ****** out. Amir Khan has a higher likelihood of becoming champion than Shawn Porter.

                    Porter would be beat down by De La Hoya from start to finish. Porter has no attribute which would shock Oscar De La Hoya.

                    What is Porter great at? He is just a tough game, solid fighter.

                      No offense, but Leonard struggled against Wilfred
