Roy Jones mentioned this on the HBO Broadcast of Prescott v. Crawford. I was intrigued by the matchup.
Terence Crawford vs. Adrien Broner

I picked Crawford because I think he is better defensively and has a lot more versatility to his arsenal (southpaw or right stance, really good jab, great counters). His foot work seems to be a lot better as well. I was also impressed by how handily he beat Prescott. I actually think Prescott is more dangerous then any opponent Broner has faced. -
That's the kind of fighters I want to see broner face, skilled fast boxer that can pop, were broner is evenly matched in skill and the best man will win.Comment

Good skills, impressed how good he is righty and lefty. Great defense, looks like he will only get better. I was kinda bored though watching his fight. He got booed and then turned it up on Presscot but then he went back to the boxing style he fought most of the fight. Good kid, he just needs to pop on his opponents more and not rely on just schooling guys cuz it was not really exciting. I think Broner whoops him though. And I think Broner is 10x better to watch then what Crawford showed Saturday.Comment

Can't pick, I have to see more of Crawford and on top of that Broner has not faced a mover. If I made a prediction it'd be entirely based off of what I think Broner possess as opposed to what he's shown me. I too was VERY impressed with Crawford's performance.Comment

I hear you. I was impressed by his defense. However, he can't stay there waiting to counter all day. It will make for a boring fight. But when he threw, he was very impressive. It makes me think there is a lot I haven't seen.Good skills, impressed how good he is righty and lefty. Great defense, looks like he will only get better. I was kinda bored though watching his fight.

Another part of this is I have a hard time believing that Broner would fight someone like Prescott like he did someone like Rees or Demarco. Although Prescott could be wild, he is a decent boxer, has range and has some pop. Broner can't go in there and just throw power shots.Comment

Funny thing is...You haven't seen everything in Crawford's arsenal. The dude is a power puncher and gets people out of there. He was extra cautious cause he was fighting up against an opponent with dangerous power.
Watch when he goes back to LW. You'll see a lot more this kid has to offer.Comment
