Comments Thread For: Crawford Lashes Out at 'Haters': 'You Could Put Me In Any Weight Category ... I Would Still Dominate'

[Jab jab boom]

They are mythical (read: imaginary) lists for good reason. Small men have to play amongst themselves because it is too dangerous for them to compete with bigger men, it's the very same reason we have women's boxing. A smaller man talking about what he would do if he was bigger is like a female boxer telling everybody what she would do if she was a man, all hot air.

Yes it’s a mythical list and has been a staple in boxing for decades. Fans debate it endlessly and organizations such as the ring magazine and ESPN have their own lists that get updated consistently. Matter of fact, the guy in your profile pic aspired to be at the top of the mythical p4p list. Unfortunately he came up ridiculously short in his two attempts to beat the guys who were at the top of that list. So you commenting that Crawford’s comment is ****** or comparing it to the special Olympics or women’s boxing l, only shows your lack of knowledge about the sport. Comparing boxers across different weight classes is not the same as comparing different genders or an Olympic athlete to someone with a developmental disability.

Ya'll need to start giving Crawford his flowers or kick rocks. Smh. He's the #1 pound for pound BEST fighter in the world. He dominated Spence another top 10 p4p fighter and did it in a dominating fashion to become undisputed. He was undisputed at 140 too. Ya'll are some damn haters if you don't put Crawford at number 1.

I got him at #2 now personally, but got no beef with people who want to put him #1. I am also one of the people who thought he was legit before the fight and that Spence had no business in the P4P list. I'm on record before the fight asking Spence fans to explain why his limited record in ONE division makes him P4P worthy. I might have him at #1 if he'd had more than one fight this year, but that's on the ****** rematch clause. That beat down doesn't merit an immediate rematch. It's not even good business. Would sell way better if Spence was able to prove himself against, say Tszyu at 154 and then defend against Crawford, especially if Crawford had taken Charlo's belts, in another undisputed unification.

Nobodies hating you bud. People think your no2 or 3 or 4th best in the sport. Might be above Nelo and Usyk
You can silence doubters in next fights the business end. Best the Ennis, tszue, charlo

“TC is ‘considered’ the first male to become undisputed in 2 weights”
I disagree with this statement.

Bud IS the first to be undisputed in 2 wts!
imagine Naoya being involved with haymon. It’d take him years to conquer one division.
Al tried so hard to block Bud from making history. Pathetic.

I respect that. The rematch is fine for me honestly because MAYBE Spence had a bad night. Again... MAYBE. And I don't think Spence is a bad fighter or levels below Crawford. The rematch is intriguing at 147 only because that would symbolize Spence attempting to reclaim his 147 throne. An immediate 147 pound rematch makes more sense than running it back at 154. At 154 the fight would have more room to marinate. Spence could get a win or two to make it even more juicier.

Are you trying to convince us or yourself, Bud?

[HandsofIron]

Big Baby Miller vs T-Bud, let's go Champ!

Edit: Canelo fight is never happening, Canelo is too big and strong for Bud, simple as that.

Crawford needs stop all this recent whining and fight Ennis.

[Carpe Diem]

Give the man his credit. He dissected Spence and made me a believer. Bud is the man right now, but he’s just not TBE. Lol

Call it what it is, it's an imaginary list where it is pretended that in some fantasy world that little boxers could compete with big guys whereas reality they cannot do so any more than a female boxer can compete with a male one or a paralympian with an Olympian.

Now I have no issues you as a fan indulging in such fantasies, that's what many fans do, but the fighters themselves should keep quiet about what they think they could do if they weren't hampered by little man genetics, it's unbecoming.
