    You're trolling right now for 78, Fannon and BBFTV, right? Since Ortiz hasn't officially left the division, wouldn't win over him cement Crawford? He has the better resume than Boots and was the 1st mandatory. How about that? Here we go with the Boots nonsense.

    See you at 154. If Crawford is running, take out Tim and cut off his exit. He pays a much as $5 million in Aust to get that work.

    Joke of the Morning - Cements his legacy with a guy who was offered the fight and turned it down.

      TS is hilarious

      Spence looked terrible and he wasn’t himself vs Ugas. I said that at the time.

      Seriously question is what is your issue with Crawford? Is it his resume? There’s definitely something about him that you don’t like. LOL

        Why should he have to move up and fight another fighter blocking his exit to try and land a shot at him with no guarantee when they are both at WW and he has already earned a mandatory position for a shot at his title?
        What other fighters in history have had to do this? Its not like Crawfords even a draw or big money fight either.

        If Crawford wants to fight weak links rather than a real challenge then vacate and go up and do so and stop putting the rest of the division on hold like he and Spence have for ages already

          I'd say his resume and lack of prime fighters on there. I don't think anyone can deny his top 5-6 wins was all well past it or totally done by the time he fought them.
          I think he is a cherrypicker that bides his time and takes on extremely compromised belt holders, collecting up belts so he can make 'history'. Its more a disdain for boxing and there being too many belts and such out there.

          I think he is an excellent fighter but what made all these other greats so great was they beat fellow greats in their prime & took risks. Now we are in era where champions don't take risks they avoid every legitimate threat, downplay them and put their own career on hold so they can wait out some weak link with a title and act like they have bigger fish to fry.

            I also want to see Boots get his shot.
            I don't want to see him winning vacant titles vs guys he will blow out of the water.

            As a fan I want too see him fight the very best and get the opportunity to showcase just how great he is, currently only Crawford can do that.
            He is the only fighter that Boots will get major credit for and be able to bring out his best.
            They need each other only those two can show how truly great they both are because quite frankly they're levels and levels above the rest.

            I honestly don't think we've seen either of them at their best even because nobody has been good enough to bring it out. Crawford never had to get out of second gear vs Spence

            I have no interest in seeing Boots destroy B/C+ tier opposition and claiming greatness and making tons of defences against bums who aren't worthy of sharing a ring with him.
            I need to know how great both of them are. I think they maybe the two best in the entire sport across all divisions, certainly the most skilled.
