    The whole world doesn’t say that about his ww resume, which is what the thread is about.

    Stay on topic. Stop pivoting and diverting to something else.

    I made no comments about Crawford’s resume in this thread outside of his ww resume.

    You keep trying but Crawford unified at ww, Manny didn’t. That is the ultimate accomplishment in any weight class. You can’t diminish it.

      It was between that and Danny Garcia and they chose Thurman cause he looked worse.
      I disagree with that. I saw that fight. Thurman got clipped one time but otherwise was in control, and when did Manny cherrypick easy fights. He and Thurman was far more competitive than most title fights. Thurman is a far more active fighter than Garcia

        Crawford winning this poll is like when Jordan got voted best college player over Kareem.

        It is mostly the casuals with a lesser knowledge that vote on name value above accomplishments.

        MJ may be the best NBA player of all time. He surely isn’t the best college or HS player. Casual fans don’t understand that.

        Manny has the better career and more name value in his ww resume. But Crawford has the best ww accomplishment. Unifying the division against the #1 ranked ww, at the time a top 5 p4p, undefeated champion, deserves to be acknowledged.

          Well he agreed to cutoff up to 14days in 2010

          Floyd kept moving the goalposts

          The 40 million offer that was bogus nobody believes Floyd has 40 million in the bank

            JMM 4 instead of Floyd.

            Clottey instead of Floyd.

            Horn, Matthysse Thurman and Broner instead of Crawford.

              Every time Manny ducks you make up an excuse.

              Manny didn’t agree immediately. He waited until it was off the table to try and save face.

              Then call him on it to see if it’s bogus and he had the money. That is a weak and idiotic excuse.

              He was just scared to lose. You just can’t admit it.

                Lol. I highly doubt that. It's not like Floyd hit like Tommy Hearns.

                He needed two free shots on a fighter with his hands down

                  Floyd moved the goalposts. When Manny accepts the new terms, Floyd moved them again.

                    Floyd was scared. Risk was too high in 2010 about 50%

                    When the risk was around 30% he made the fight

                      Well accepting all the terms isn't an excuse
