Is he the undisputed GOAT/GOD of boxing? He would be a 5-division UNDISPUTED champion. Never done before and will never be repeated.
If CrawGod becomes undisputed at 160 and then 175

He isn't going to 175. He's said it, his trainer has said it.
But yes, if he did it, there would be no question. He'd be a 7 division world titlist, 6 division lineal world champion, and a 5 division undisputed champion. That's absurd.Comment

I really don't understand why he's not going to 175? He can beat one of those belt holders. And if he don't beat them, at least he tried. Is he protecting zero?
You'll only get one chance at this. Nobody asking you to campaign at 175 for 10 years at 175 like pac did at 147. It's just one offComment

Yeah.
He'd be even greater if he then went undisputed at Crusierweight and then Heavyweight and then cut down to 126 and beat Inoue.
If I'm Crawford that's what I'd do for my next few fights.
Then either retire or go down to 115 and beat Bam Rodriguez.😂 1Comment

In my opinion and this is just my opinion. One could make a very strong argument for it. For my money, he already is. The GOAT. However, there are many drawbacks which could be used against him.
One, the era in which he fought in. Boxing had become a niche sport and waned by the time he arrived on the scene. As fans lost interest; It was no longer a mainstream sport.
Two, bad promotion; He wasn’t a very popular boxer in his generation with Top rank. They held him back. He had no mainstream or crossover appeal among casual fans as Toprank couldn’t find an audience for him.
Three, his inactivity. He didn’t have many professional Prizefights when compared to the all-time greats because he earned too much money when compared to the icons of yesteryear.
Lastly, his lack of a good resume’. How many HOFers has he fought or defeated in his career? This is perhaps the most telling of his career.
Leonard had a very short career too. However, he defeated many HOFers and all-time greats along the way.
However, let’s just keep in mind that all-time great status is purely mythical, hypothetical and subjective.
This is not a science. There is no such thing as a universal truth in any of it.Comment

And thats the reason why hes not the GOAT in my book and any other boxer who started their career after 2001. However he is an ATG and gives any GOAT a good challenge and probably beats some of them.In my opinion and this is just my opinion. One could make a very strong argument for it.
