    If he unifies all the belts at 154 and then beats Canelo he goes ahead of Canelo as the best of this generation.

    If he can unify 154 and win legit titles at 160, he’s clearly an ATG and entering into the upper echelon.

      Who was the top dog at 140 at the time that he could of defended it against?
      Who was at 147 that he coulda defended it?

        Who exactly is a "true technician" that he can fight?

        I swear if you say booty ennis just dont even bother responding. That's fvkcing laughable
        No, I don’t think Booty Ennis is ready yet. He’s very flashy, fast and athletic, but I don’t think he would be defensively responsible enough to beat Crawford. He seems to admire his own work too much, you can’t have any mental lapses against Crawford. I don’t know who can really challenge Crawford at 147 or 154, but I’ll tell you what though, he better think twice about fighting some of those guys at 160 and up. Morrell and even old man Erislandy Lara would be a stylistic nightmare for Crawford, but we all know those type of fights would turn out to be a stink fest and aren’t appealing to casual fans and if it doesn’t make money, it won’t make sense. Crawford will most like retire undefeated.

          Bud cleaned out the other top champs head up in his last fights in these divisions. Hard to criticize that.

          No he didn’t defend a unified title but he instead fought bigger title holders.

          Ok. If he unifies 154 he has to be an ATG right.

              He is on the path but he doesn't have much time left to do it, beating Madirmov in his first fight at 154 would be impressive especially if Madirmov does big things after a potential loss. Beating Jenibek at 160 would be impressive, then maybe he can lure Canelo out for a major fight and if he wins that he has a serious claim as one of the best ever.

                Cmon just wanting him to move up to 160 is just trying to see him lose. Lara would be a decent fight he's been standing his ground the past few fights he's had.

                    Not really. Crawford can retire undefeated today, tomorrow, or 2-4 years from now, he’ll never be on Floyd’s level when it comes to pure boxing skills in my opinion. He’s good enough to be in the conversation with Floyd, but there are levels for a reason.

                      Crawfords already better than froid honestly. He's never got caught with steroids so that makes him better in my opinion
