crawford must have great fans, hes one of these guys who wins all hypothetical matchups too, hes a bit like ward in that regard

[Someone88]

Go Crawford!

It would be shocking if that happened. But I don't see how it's possible unless it is a non title fight.

Either way, I see Crawford getting stoppage by rd 6 here in his tune-up fight.

All this is disgraceful because Ennis is there... Wasting away...

That is precisely my point. Bud is fighting bums after bums so fighting Broner is a disgrace and for Bud to actually entertain it just tells you this is a man who has no desire to fight legit threats.

Perhaps but Bud is still fighting Broner In April according to BLK. That’s a great fight.

Looks to me like Crawford is about cashing out at this point having seeing how he moves and listening to a lot of his recent interviews. Shame 'cos he has zero signature wins on his record. Sure he passes the eye test and he has a lot of good wins but nothing on the level of very good to great. He was undisputed in two weight classes but seriously do anyone really remember the guys he beat to accomplish that. Five years or so at Welterweight and no marque wins unless you are counting him beating whatever is left of Shawn Porter. He just has one of those strange resumes that is unbecoming of a PFP #1 fighter like most call him especially if you compare to other #1 PFP candidates. Oh well, I guess he did it his way.

Who tf is gonna remember the killers at 168 Ginger beat? Or Kambosos, who Haney beat? Or who Taylor beat at 140?

Only dullards don't know who David Avanesyan is. Or pure casuals. When Porter was on his trail, all the casuals said Bud was running from him. After he flattened Shawn's tires, the narrative changed to "Porter was semi-retired" or "Porter was washed". The narrative always changes when the Spence man fans want to puff up their boy and discredit Crawford.

I agree with the thru line of your comment, but it also speaks to a lack of depth in today’s welterweight division. Go look at Spence’s record and tell me who would stand a chance against Crawford. In every case he would make it look easier, like he did with Porter.

[Ganondorf]

Beat him up, David! Mess him up on the inside and be sure to foul and go to the body!

[QballLobo]

They have so many close up shots because if it’s zoomed out you’ll see no one there.

Press is ignoring this one.

Pfp is made up nonsense, simply calling Crawford one of the best ww fighters which is exactly what he is just dosent sound sexy enough for so called boxing fans.
