    Dude beat a drained Spense who hadn't fought in over a year and now he's the GOAT?

      Many people get carried away and start saying TBE, GOAT, etc. but these guys never fought the two Sugar Rays in their prime, and other great fighters in history. Robinson fought many champions in199 fights. Crawford would be tough in any era but not unbeatable. Or at least, it can never be proven.

          Ok, my guy. If you say so and you’re absolutely right. Terence Crawford is TBE and the GOAT. Salute to both of y’all! Have a great evening! I just gave you a nice “Bill Haney grin” too.

            I’m literally watching a replay fight of Israil vs Igbokwe, I would be very surprised if Crawford doesn’t washed this dude in less than 4 rounds. This fight will be less competitive than the fight he had against Avanesyan. Good stay busy fight for Crawford and a chance for him to collect a cheap belt while doing so, but let’s not glorify it until something that it’s not. Israil looks even more basic, stiff/slower than Spence, and that’s no shade to Spence, but this is should be Crawford’s freestyle type of fight where he displays all of his flashy moves, Israil looks like a sitting duck and he will be on Aug 3. Y’all have a great evening now, “Bill Haney’s” grin.

              He doesn’t have one questionable fight on his record and most of his toughest opponents he KOed and now he’s willing to go up 3 weight classes to fight Canelo. I’d say that puts him up there. He is definitely a special fighter.

                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.
                I mean everyone criticizes canelo for doing the same against harder competition in heavier divisions lol. Bud missed DSG and mikey garcia at 135/140 Josh Taylor and Regis at 140 back when Taylor was good lol.now skipping out on ennis lol. Imagine if like tito trinidad skipped Vargas and mayorga like cmon man. The old adage is “it’s easy to win a title but hard to keep it”. Bud knows this well. If he takes out Vergil Ortiz at 154 I’ll say he’s an ATG. Other than that 154 is just as big a joke as 147 atm

                  Crawford and his trainer are so delusional & arrogant. He’s not nearly as good as he thinks. It’s off putting how he also puts down other fighters, to make himself look good.

                  I just saw a documentary on Monster Inoue leading up to Nery. And Inoue said he feels unsatisfied with his accomplishments, like he has still much to do.

                    he skipped Taylor at 140 when Taylor was still good. At 135 he fought gamboa and dipped no loma or mikey garcia. Him and DSG fully ducked each other at top rank just look at around 2015/2014 there absolutely no reason that fight shouldn’t have been made. 147 he clearly does not want to fight Jaron ennis. Now moving up to fight israil adensanya at 154 (who?) like foh man. I’ll bet anyone on this site money if he gets in the ring with Vergil Ortiz he’ll get knocked out

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.
