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

[Roberto Vasquez]

I remember when Crawford was complaining that people said the only person he beat was Spence. Well it is true... Why was he fighting Brook and Khan? Both finished fighters from previous generation

Considering his talent, his record is so bad. Got no one to blame but himself

Well, time to prove what your haters want you to prove. Beat Ennis.

But somehow Ennis, who has never won a belt, and has nowhere near the accomplishments of Crawford....Ennis is touted as the next best ever, when he has beat up tomato cans his entire career, now in his mid 20's. He turned Crawford down last year.

Bud has a contractual rematch. But he is supposed to fight B level Boots for small potatoes rather than fight big names for money.....at 35???

The Bud hate just makes no sense. Can any of you guys explain this? What has Ennis done to make you like him?

Funny how so many of you have limited reading comprehension skills. This is his quote “You could put me in any weight category if I was that size and I would still dominate.” So he’s not saying he can go up any amount of weight and dominate, he’s using the original logic of what pound for pound means. Let’s be honest, if he were the same size as a boxer in any other weight class, meaning he wasn’t at a size disadvantage, who are you all picking to beat him?

All hot air. It's like someone in the special olympics saying, if I had all my faculties I'd be the actual Olympic gold medallist. Reality is, he's a small man and weight classes were created to allow little people to compete with each other because they're unable to compete with bigger people. The End.

Crawford needs to accept a certain section of fans will never give him any credit for his accomplishments. People complained for years about Crawford avoiding Spence, then he absolutely dismantles Spence and it's due to outside variables. If Crawford dismantled Ennis there would be new excuses and a new bandwagon to jump onto because certain fans don't like Crawford because he's embarrassed them.

No one would fight him. He was a killer. Arum said it. How can he fight big names when they wont get into the ring? It is kind of the same as Ennis, but Ennis turned Bud down last year....and other top guys have said they will fight Ennis, apparently Ennis wasn't ready for them. Now maybe he is.

But Bud has a contractual rematch. These posts are what I mean. Why do you pull so hard for Ennis to "get his shot" against Bud.....when Bud was actually ducked, he "fought inferior comp". The same should be said of Ennis.

Is Bud not flashy enough with the bling? Im serious, why so much personal dislike?

Bud has no fault in this? Did Arum get him the Manny fight when they under the same banner? Why didn't Bud sign with PBC if he wanted the smoke?

Jaron is 26, not 36. He has plenty of time to fill his resume with quality opponents.

I actually think Crawford would stop Ennis late if they ever meet, but I still want to see the best matchup that can be made at welterweight.

I hate when guys like Crawford and Bradley spend their careers taking in-house fights against lower level opposition when there were so many intriguing matchups out there for them. It's such a waste.

You do know that this is the logic on which all pound for pound lists are based, right? This kind of logic has been a debate in boxing for decades. Your analogy to the special Olympics is ******.

Isn't Crawford contractually obligated to give Spence a rematch? I don't want to see it, but he has to fight Spence next. Didn't Ennis have the opportunity to be Crawford's mandatory earlier, but chose to go in another direction? I see that Ennis has found his balls now that Crawford has a contractually obligated fight against somebody else.

The Crawf haters know it but still bump their gums.
