Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn: 154 pounds a step too far for Terence Crawford

[hugh grant]

Buds supposed to be near Inoue s class, so 4 division champ should be walk in park

Crawford is the most bad-ass dude in the world

[cockydude]

Crawfords going to have the same results against anybody: He will beat the **** out of the dude i

Everyone needs to calm down about Madrimov’s size.

This is the Snac version of Terence Crawford. He’s going to beef up good, and he’s only half an inch shorter than Madrimov while having the reach of a 175lb fighter.

yeah, its really terrible when promoters risk losses by putting their guys in competitive fights against rival promotions.

I really hate it when that happens. In-house mismatch tune-ups are SOOOOOOOO much better!!!


you clowns are too much................

Ohh so Eddie is doing fans a favor? Your right... "Dear Eddie, thank you for not totally destroying boxing like the lot a ya usually do ya dft cnt!" There is that better?

Bivol was 183 against Canelo.

All these guys cutting so much weight are just not good enough to fight grown men.

In modern times, there aren't many fighters who stay within 15lbs. of their fighting weight! Floyd and Manny might be the last to do it? Crawford might be the next, if he gets Canelo @ 168!

That's just the state of boxing today! Errol Spence was 190 b4 Crawford, and he paid for it! The weight cut strategy is part of the game! Ryan Garcia is calling out 154 fighters because he's their size. Devin Haney was putting on 20-25lbs. overnight! Vergil Ortiz Jr. nearly killed himself trying to make 147! Who knows what Canelo will be in the ring when he faces Crawford? Easily 185+

Bivol was 183 against Canelo.

Some are going farther saying TC can beat Canelo. Not likely but let's see how he does at 154.

Bud might as well try. Unbeaten records are useless. Being unbeaten won't make people go "wow" Beating Nel o and being 5 or even 6 division champ will.

The Dream likes a fast pace with flash and daring. There’s some recklessness in his style, for example those Street Fighter II hooks. He may leap into the path of a timed Bud bomb, and regret it.

Before that happens, Madrimov’s going to be throwing a lot and landing a few. A few at 154 starts getting costly quickly for a 37 year-old former lightweight. The sooner Bud finds an edge, the better—and the longer we fans can keep enjoying these last days of his artistry.
