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

Canelo unified too, dumbass.

And he fought the best fighter in the division above where he unified.

You really are no better than the Crawford haters and have a similar agenda.

Canelo ducked the best fighters at 154 and 168. By the time he found his balls to fight Golovkin above Canelo's personal and convenient 155 pound middleweight championship limit, Golovkin was already past his prime. He has clearly ducked Benavidez, the best fighter at 168, for years. Unlike Crawford who has beaten the best fighters in each of his divisions. Those are all facts, dumbass. You can release Canelo's testicles now.

Excuses shine a light on the excuse maker not the other way around. It just makes you look like pathetic sore losers.

dont know if i grasped your comment correctly but how does that make me look like a pathetic loser? all i did was state the truth why don't you try and refute what i said? Crawford allowed this to be created not anyone else sure the excuses are somewhat bul**** but they are there and they do hold some merit sorry but that truth.

Crawford chose to stay with Bob that's truth and Bob being Bob didn't want to make fights that's truth and Bobs been shown here in this forum on numerus occasions to be that type of a promotor to hold fighters back while building them up.

How many times did we hear this line from Bob "we are looking into fights with (insert big name here)" and then Crawford is in with Indongo or some Euro bum? Same thing has happened with Pacman and Cotto when they were signed with Bob and other fighters as well that bob managed.

at the end of the day its Crawford and his team that has mismanaged his career and he's stuck in a hard place now being 36 year old and has what 4 -6 top level fighters if that in his resume?? who's fault is that ?? mine lol

if you look at the scenario that i put up Crawford would have close to Mayweather's star power if he would have signed with PBC the first time he left Bob, he would have also destroyed the haters.

I don't think the analogies extend to fans not having an opinion, that being the essence of being a fan and there is no sport without them.

Listen, Crawford is going as far as to say he would beat heavyweights if he was their size, that's essentially what he's saying and I don't like to hear that nonsense. His skills aren't so great where he can even move up a few weight classes from where he's at, so it's hot air, big talk, a nonsense.

Now I'm not a Crawford hater, I respect him as a boxer and usually as a personality, he's had a career hampered by promoters, but not I'm not having any these little guys saying what they would do if they weren't little guys because it just has no basis in reality.

In terms of PFP generally, I think has been a marketing tool for the most part, some fun for fans and a method of promotion. But as one analyst once said, there's the heavyweight champion then there's everyone else.

Crawford isn’t wrong in saying that. If you scaled him up to heavyweight size his combination of skills and finishing ability would be superior to any heavyweight with the possible exception of Usyk. Just look at the “skills” that were on display this last Saturday.

Of course your own excuses hold merit to YOU. Even talking about promoters at all is a deflection when it comes to Terence Crawford. We all know that PBC TRIED to freeze Crawford out of his opportunity to achieve greatness. But it didn’t work and they failed. The whole resume argument is just another elaborate excuse that has been debunked because he beat Spence easier than he did a lot of the other opponents on his “resume”. And he became undisputed junior welterweight world champion when he beat Julius Indongo. Should he have turned down this opportunity to appease you and the haters? No matter how elaborate your excuses they are still just excuses and can be easily reduced to their basic value; which is no more than any other excuse.

Crawford has already been champion in 3 divisions and is good enough to be champ in others if the opportunities arise. I don’t know why you’re acting as if this is a brand new concept. Mayweather spent 20 yrs telling everyone he was the best fighter in the world. Canelo said the same. Roy jones said the same. Chavez said the same. What’s the difference ? The concept of there’s a heavyweight champion and everyone else maybe applied 20 plus years ago. The truth is, the last 20 yrs of hw boxing has left a lot to be desired and hardly any of them have the skills of fighters in the lower weight classes.

There is no debate between Crawford and Inoue. Even trying to put them on the same level is just a media ploy to muddy the waters. Inoue went life and death with Nonito Donaire who was in his forties with a handful of losses and had been knocked out before. They are not the same. And in ring performance is the main criteria that determines a fighters placement on the pound for pound list.

I personally have Crawford ahead of Inoue but it certainly is a debate among many as most lists have Inoue right next to Crawford.

If that's the case, bud shouldn't need 5 years in a division before proving he's no1 in it. And waiting for opponent to have a unfortunate accident in automobile? It's bad taste for me to mention this. But it seems buds fans gloating about buds win, whilst sweeping the unfortunate accident under carpet which is also bad taste and improper conduct.

[MONGOOSE66]

I think Crawford is the best of this particular time. That said, I’m sick of these prima Donna’s talking up themselves and NOT fighting real theats right in front of them. Shut up and fight otherwise just fkn retire. Boxing sucks bad enough. Let the younger kids who still are hungry fight. Get the fk out of the way.

He’s a distant number 2 but I’ll give him that. Crawford has been too dominant to be rivaled.
