Where would you rate Crawford if he unifies 154 and then beats Canelo at catchweight?

    It would be some record if he did that. On paper at least.

    Kind of a weak era in the 147/154 region though tbh

    Regardless of it being a weak era, his accolades would read lineal in 4 divisions, undisputed in 3 and arguably beating the face of boxing has to put him in the upper echelon of at least top 15 atg argument.

    Ain't his fault pbc blackballed him for so long or Bootsy turned him down 2 years ago.

    He beat everyone put in front of him, in fashion.

      Buds problem is that he has only 1 great win. People now talk about his titles but his resume will age horribly and I think that will have more of an impact to his legacy than the titles. People will say, who did he beat? Even with the Spence fight, ALOT of people will say that wasn’t Spence. It sucks for Bud because he beat him fair and square. Canelo is the A side, there would never be a catchweight so that fight isn’t even possible. 154 is very weak so sure it sounds good if he became undisputed but once again, who did he beat? For Bud to be fully appreciated, he needs a run of fights that are at least close to 50/50, 50/50, or he’s the underdog.

      -Boots
      -Vergil Ortiz if he beats Tszyu impressively
      -Benavidez/Morrell/Canelo at 168(no catchweight)

      These are the type of fights he needs to be ranked among the greats.

            Canelo would never fight someone at a catchweight that doesn't benefit him. It would be at 168...and he still won't do it.

              Top 30.

              Even with his accomplishments, he would only have faced and beaten 1 Hall of Famer, unless Spence does big things at 154.

                  Cmon people, you expect from Crawford a little too much. Dude is 36, fighting in his 4th division.

                  And many people here already talk like he will take all the belts at 154 and 160. Like other champs are there only for donating their belts to some p4p guy.

                  You haven`t learned the lesson from Canelo -Bivol?

                    Bud looks great visually but his resume kinda like GGG. A decade of whooping ass against B- and C+ level competition
