Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford: "I've Been The Underdog My Whole Career"

[STREET CLEANER]

When he fought Gamboa, and Ricky Burns.

Vs Gamboa Crawford was a 2-1 favorite, vs Burns, Crawford was the favorite by for by TKO. Burns had a gift decision against Beltran before the Crawford fight. He was never the underdog.

Theres a good name for his future autobiography: From UnderDog to Top Dog: The Bud Crawford Story (In stores now)

What lol

This guy has never been the underdog

I feel it's easy to understand, all these guys get their fair share of doubters/knockers/haters and that's what speaks loudest to them, from his perspective, he probably feels the underdog and Errol does as well it comes from being in such a competitive sport where fans are so hating all through their careers, I don't feel he was ever the underdog but to walk in his shoes is a very different perspective.

Fans hate him because of his crap resume. That doesn’t make you an underdog, not even figuratively.

Fans definitely like Spence more. He has had better PPV and viewership than Crawford. I wouldn’t put them in the same sentence when it comes to likability.

Oh Im just reflecting him saying he has been an underdog, from his perspective, I can see where he is getting it from, look at Ennis defending negative things said about his defence same type of thing, they just see negative comments about them like red on a white page more than they see the praise they get, I think your right fans liking Spence more he is a humble kind of dude, its similar to Floyd and Manny, Floyd and TC carry that same kinda chip on their shoulder.

Bud has talent bud he’s not as good as u think. He has not achieved greatness. Beating joe horn Julius ondongol and Bobby burns doesn’t make u an elite champion. He was under the same promotional umbrella as DSG mikey garcia and manny pacquaio Josh Taylor and prograis while they were in their primes and not one of these fights were made. Not one. He claimed to be the best in the division because he beat indigol and Booby burns aHis best win is a retirement fight Shawn porter who didn’t really train and was even with him till he got knocked out. Bud has talent he makes in ring adjustments and is one of the top ring IQs I’ve seen. Spence’s is better tho. And he’s proved it against better competition. Ugas would beat crawford and anyone who has seen them fight knows this. Don’t believe me? Go waa Their amatuer fights. They weren’t competitive bud got destroyed. He also went 1-1 in the amateurs against DSG which is why he wouldn’t fight him when they were both 140 and at top rank. It’s just laughable at this point anyone defending his resume

I'm not reading you message because it's probably idiot being that you are either too silly to look up what the fighters names are or you are going out your way to purposely call them something other than their actual name....... 6x world title holder. 2x Lineal Champ. 2x Fighter of the Year. ESPY Award winner. Former Undisputed...... and your silly ass claims he hasn't achieved greatness. But you give Spence ultimate praise because he be an undefeated lightweight In Mikey.....Then beat a journeyman in Porter. Then followed it by beating 2 fighters who lost to Porter in Danny and Ugas...... You sound idiotic.

The fight happens in 2 hours...... Start typing your excuses for Spence now. I'll be back.

Thanks for explaining why when he called himself the underdog he didn't mean underdog but something completely different.

How ****** for people to have thought when he said underdog, that he meant underdog.

Let's be clear: an underdog means a person or team that is expected to lose.

Crawford said he has been the undergod his whole career. He explains what he means by underdog in this fight, by saying he is being written off, that people are saying Errol is bigger, stronger, more technical, has a better jab, is more defensive. In other words, he is using the meaning of underdog we all understand ("we" meaning everyone but you) -- he is saying everyone expects him to lose.

And it is complete bollocks.

I'm sure you wanted me to read this but I completely forgot about you....lol. Then my attempt to read your response, well, I just don't have the energy for it..... I said what I said though.

Who cares....... Fight night. 2 hours before they step in the ring....... I'll be ready for a new conversation.
