I want Crawford to fight Spence like he fought Viktor Postol

[BLASTER1]

You didn't read the title. I WANT HIM TO FIGHT LIKE THAT. But I'm saying, if he does, Spence is likely going to handle him, because the only ones to give Spence remotely any trouble are ones that go to him.




Correct. And all I'm saying is, IF CRAWFORD DOES THAT AGAINST SPENCE, I WANT NSB TO BE CONSISTENT!

When Devin Haney does it, he's called "Huggies". Okay, so if Crawford does that, I expect Crawford to get called out for "hugging" too.

When Floyd did it (average 1.5 times a round compared to Clinchko's 13 times per round against PEDvetkin), Floyd was blamed for being the reason the Pacquiao fight was boring, and Floyd was called a coward. Okay, so if Crawford does that, I expect Crawford to get called a coward too.

When Chukhadzian rotated Boots for 12 rounds and was never hurt, NSB called him a coward and a runner. Okay, so if Crawford does that (like he did against Postol), I expect Crawford to get called a coward and a runner too.

When Sandor Martin did nothing but feint for 8 rounds against a befuddled Mikey, NSB said he was a stinker (who would go on to embarrass Teofimo and get robbed). Okay, so if Crawford does that (like he did against Postol), I expect him to get called a stinker too.

When Zorrilla stunk up the joint against a flat-footed Prograis, NSB accused him of being the problem. Okay, so if Crawford does that, I expect Crawford to stop getting called #1P4P, etc.

I want NSB to be CONSISTENT. The only way to expose that lack of consistency around here is for Crawford to NOT engage, so we can see the posts and expose those people.

The only one exposed is you being a bud hater.
Fugh off with your childish crap.
You sound like a Karen.

Remember, NSB crowned him #1 P4P for beating Jeff Horn. And has maintained that he's #1 P4P despite who he fought.

So yes, there's a different standard for Crawford than for everyone else. I mean FFS, while Crawford was getting asterisk wins and not going after titles, Canelo was winning belts in multiple divisions, Inoue was unifying divisions, Baby Charlo unified a division, Devin Haney unified a division, Usyk unified two divisions, Spence unified 3 belts in one division, etc. Yet none of them got their chops.

That's why I'm excited. Because if Crawford performs like Chukhadzian, I want to see if NSB will call Crawford a coward like they did Chukhadzhian. OR will they say that BECAUSE Crawford fought like that, he's elite? Which means Chukhadzhian deserves his credit.

Like no matter what, if Crawford doesn't fully engage and go to war, it's going to expose a lot of hypocrisy around here. And it's their fault for putting the guy on a pedestal that wasn't yet earned.

'Eye Test'

I've seen a lot of people on NSB saying Crawford is a fraud, he's beaten nobody, his resume is trash etc. Therefore I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of people calling him boring, a runner etc if chooses not to engage. People who dislike him will discredit him and those who like him, will praise him. Same as they do for every fighter.

I've seen a lot of replies on NSB saying Crawford is a fraud, he's beaten nobody, his resume is trash etc.

Fixed. And yes, you have. And it's all coming from the same group of a select few people.

By and large, NSB (the vast majority of people left since Manny got schooled and Golovkin took an L) biases five ways:

• They hate Wilder
• They hate Floyd
• They hate Al Haymon
• They hate Canelo
• They have Crawford #1 P4P

However or whyever you feel the others is whatever. But that last one. The man has done nothing anywhere close to guys like Juan Estrada, Canelo, Inoue or even Usyk. And no, it's not about what you did before, it's what you did in your current weight class. There's simply no justification for having him #1. Having him on the list? Sure. But #1? Come on.

F'n Canelo Alvarez is about to fight another undisputed champion, maybe two, and people STILL trash on the dude.

That's why I say, NSB is not consistent.

Guys get belts, NSB will say the belts don't matter.

Guys don't go for belts, NSB criticizes them for not "enforcing mandatories" (i.e. Boots)

Fighters can't win around here, I said it before. That's why I want Crawford to just stay on the move and not engage. Stink out the joint. Let's see if NSB finally turns on him or exposes themselves.

Not one fan said "Zorilla stunk up the joint." One lie obliterates your entire argument.
The general opinion was Prograis was really not that good. Go ask Robert Garcia, who
said every top guy in the division could beat him.

[Noelanthony]

That is his best strategy. I don't think he'll be disciplined enough to do it however

He doesn’t have the legs anymore to sustain it for the entire fight even if that was the game plan

[Combat Talk Radio]

Not one fan said "Zorilla stunk up the joint."

...uh, what???

Zorilla lived up to his name and really stunk the joint out by running and poking

i don't like to disrespect fighters but this zorilla is the biggest sissy of a fighter ive seen recently. come on dude you are a challenger in the champs hometown and you run around making ****** sounds when you do decide to throw a punch. foh i hope this guys fights never get televised again

Zorilla ran and refused to engage for most of the fight. Folks in the crowd were yelling "pollo" LOL

zorilla fought like a coward sissy and thought he could win like that as a challenger in the champs backyard. foh i hope they never give this guy a chance again on tv more interesting to watch flies fxck

[Carpe Diem]

Terence TBE Crawford is going to put on a boxing clinic, Spence will be hitting nothing but air all
night.

[Combat Talk Radio]

we're almost there

[IceTrayDaGang]

LOL.. i dont remember crawford fighting postol this way .. why he moving so much against postol?

[maguirre]

I want Crawford to fight Spence like he fought Postol.

Ain't going to happen. Earl Spence is not Vik Postol. As simple as that. Vik was walking Bud Crawford down, but he was not throwing any. I don't see that happening here.
