Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez on Crawford: He's Human; We Bleed the Same; He's Just Uglier ... Even Fights Ugly

[Gary Coleman]

Your talking about a weakness in a undefeated fight. Lol

What weakness is there if the guy in question has never lost ??.

There's know angles on Crawford, but there is on Teo's lame crazy ass. Him and his crazy ass father trainer. Lol

I wasn't talking about Teo at all and you're crazy if you think Bud has no weakness. That's ridiculous.

Every fighter has a weakness, even the special ones. It takes the right matchup to exploit it, however.

Teo looks like Gamera and he needs a ****en dentist…talking about mofos who are ugly lol….

In boxing, we don’t consider the word “weakness”. That’s something fans use to help their weak arguments. The job details being hit so it comes down to who is hurt more and who isn’t. That’s not a weakness. That weakness doesn’t show up in every fight win or lose.

Semantics. Vulnerability. How's that?

A “marginally talented” fighter would not have been undisputed at 135 by beating the top fighter in the sport (that WAS the undisputed fight, regardless of the bulls#it the WBC did) and then again beating the undefeated, undisputed champion one weight class over (Taylor did not lose those titles in the ring). Keep your hate in check.

It's not hate, it's a fact. A professional fighter who can only excel vs a stationary target and can't cut off the ring from a runner is marginally talented. Ortiz had him swinging for the fences and running into the ropes when he missed. While I acknowledge the win vs Taylor, Lomachenko said that he had an injured shoulder when he fought Lopez. In the second half of the fight, he clearly outboxed Teo. And guess what, Lopez refused to give him a rematch, saying that he was punishing Vasyl for being "disrespectful" of his dad. FOH

Yer, well I'll be right here ready to watch that when and where that fighter ever comes forth and shows the world what your chatting about.

But until then, know fight he's face to date has exploited any so called weaknesses.

This guys even more detached from reality than I first thought lol

Reading back the posts in this thread good to see everyone knows Crawford would hurt this fool bad anyone who doubts that must be as crazy as him and his dad

Seriously, people have GOT to just STOP trying to limit Crawford's accomplishments by pointing out how he had a tough fight years back or how his win against Spence Jr wasn't a quality win, it's hella ****in' corny, Let's not forget that Crawford was IN SPENCE FACE IN 2018 letting him know that he will 100% beat him in the ring knowing that there is going to be detractors immediately crying about Spence being "Weight-Drained" , or Injured, or OVER THE HILL suddenly and excusing Spence loss while Discrediting Crawford's win, that noise is super Ugly. Yeah we get it, there are a multitude of FACTS that exist pertaining to each and every fighters career, no fighter is simply ONE THING because nothing is ABSOLUTE. More than one fact can be true at a time, right? So I mean, Yeah Crawford has been buzzed, it's not a knock on his skills fundamentally, it's clearly about his level of self confidence that has caused him to not remain defensively sound while playing around with certain opponents, and I realize that may sound like a load of shyte typically, but just WATCH Crawford fight Mean Machine, he gets clipped and then what happens? He gets focused REALLY goddamn quick.
Watch Crawford fight Porter, he is practically toying around as if he's in with his LITTLE BROTHER, he's even teasing him through body language, and what happens in between round 9 & 10 I believe it is, when his secondary trainer is clearly telling him that he is DOWN on the unofficial cards? You can literally WITNESS the most insane change in a sporting man that has that special "IT" within them, I suspect Tom Brady had it, I KNOW JORDAN had it, Kobe, LeBron, Sugar Ray Robinson, Canelo to a large degree (although we have witnessed his LIMITS), All the GREATS have that thing where they can slough off or haphazardly approach gaming until **** gets REAL, and then there is NO GEAR that cannot be reached and opened all the way in the open road, they turn it on **God Mode** If you will. I've seen Crawford go GOD MODE against Porter in round 10, Mean Machine in Round 5&6, Jose Benavidez in round 11 going into 12 and all of 12, and for the literal ENTIRETY of Spence Jr. Let's not ever forget that for at least 6 years Spence Jr was his SOLE FOCUS and his only desired fight, and for all of those 6 years NEARLY EVERYBODY Considered SPENCE JR a WELTERWEIGHT BOOGIE MAN and a DEMOLITION EXPERT with bombs in his hands and that includes PRE ACCIDENT AS WELL AS POST ACCIDENT, as well as PRE EYE INJURY AND POST INJURY, he NEVER stopped Winning in Style or if not Destroying ppl he was Atleast shutting them the **** out(Garcia. D), so at the time of the Spence Jr v Crawford fight finally materializing, it was genuinely the Public at large' opinion that Crawford was going to be rolled right through, Media mostly thought so as well. And then there was the TINY Tiny percentage of people that have ALWAYS KNOWN what was going to happen between Crawford v. Spence Jr (we all know who we are, no need to pat ourselves on the back or nothing like that), but seriously, Why do detractors have the guts to insult Crawford's resume (which is unfortunately thin in many ways, however it is NOT just null of accomplishment) and then when we quite literally DETONATES the Welterweight "King" during they're run of "Strap Season", y'all have the GUTS TO minimize THAT!?!?! That stuff is really sickening... For starters, EVERY BOXING Fan knows the conditions surrounding each and every big fight/mediocre fight/old fight/new fight... There is literally NO NEED to childishly state how someone fought a fighter at "back end of they're career", especially when Crawford is like 4 or 5 years Spence Elder and has like 15 more fights than him, not to mention if Crawford is SOOO FRAIL & Chinnie like certain ppl like to imply, Wouldn't it be worth noting that CRAWFORD was much further into his careers sunset years than Spence Jr? I mean Crawford has been SHOT, so all of these fools that like to FANBOY for Spence Jr in regards to hating on Crawford I just want to point out that not even ERROL HIMSELF has once looked to insult the MAN or his accomplishment on that night, quite the opposite infact. So let's STOP doing the whole Dismiss one fighters accomplishments just to Reward other fighters for similar circumstances, please. Let's do our BEST to remain open minded, or if nothing else let's ACKNOWLEDGE our own immaturity or Closed mindedness when we do all that "cherry picking" to inflate one fighters career and then turn around and grade other fighters on the most nitpicky standard. They are JUST PEOPLE. Even the GREATS have been CLIPPED, even the GREATS have had poor performances, I'm talking even the GODS of the sport LOST fights, like HONESTLY even the VERY BEST have literally LOST. We all know which "undefeated" fighters were actually just manufactured by Promoters or MobHeads through Corruption and Foul Gaming, even THOSE GUYS lost fights, all you have to do is study the sport.

I apologize for the convoluted digression, now moving forward, in regards to the whole Teofimo nonsense, isn't it very OBVIOUS that he is seeking some attention and "clout"? This boy is the SAME KID that was DOUBTING HIMSELF during his life and death affair with Sandor Martin, & after his loss to Kambosos. He even tried to do the SAME THING he insulted Lomachenko for after they're fight, the whole "oh I had a prefight injury I just was too noble to postpone the fight for". All that noise is damaged ego struggling with itself, navigating it's way through confusion and self deprecation and ultimately utilizing delusion to accept the things it cannot cope with. That is the CONS regarding Teofimo and his chances against Crawford, before assessing his skills within the ring, he lacks the mentality necessary to win an honest match..
HOWEVER in all fairness, it's worth noting that Teofimo DOES have incredible God given athleticism and good speed combined with power to create concussive bombs, and when FOCUSED Teo and his father HAVE BEEN able to study opponents carefully and craft EXCELLENT GAME PLANS when approaching a fight that they respect they're opponents... So It is entirely possible that they could best Crawford, I just honestly do not believe that Crawford wouldn't be able to attain his GodMode in a fight with Teo, even as father time begins to weigh heavily on Crawford, and while gravity begins to pull downward even harder, Crawford seems like he has NEVER polluted his body with anything beyond possibly anger or some stress, but all in all i wouldn't be shocked if Crawford could achieve similar accolades as "The Alien" B-Hop himself.
The only current question mark in Crawford's career path is, how would he fare against Ennis? I believe that there is a good possibility that may be his final fight, after some serious self reflection and consideration, NOTHING will actually cement his legacy more. Canelo is TECHNICALLY flawed, and there IS an actual blueprint that has been replicated with him. ENNIS, has no ***** in his armor yet, merely just inexperience and what COULD BE......

Terrible, lmao. You have to know what fighters go through and what they have to over come in order to truly understand what you’re saying. Every fighter is vulnerable and every fighter has weaknesses. Even the ones that you think don’t, do. That’s ok. This is seen in athletes in every sport.
