    Pac also has defensive flaws. . . I think it would be hell of a scrap, they'd both come to fight, would be a war til the end. Pac would win it, but realistically if it's probably gonna be out of Crawford or Garcia, and out of the 2, I'd rather see Crawford. . . Garcia would result to spoiling tactics and make the fight boring.

      i dont know but crawford could've probably put beltran away much earlier but he was content w/ just jabbing with few hard punches here and there most of the rounds.

        A lot of interesting fights for the very skilled Crawford at 140, I have a feeling he might get chin checked by the guys packing power though.

          he's still learning. Needs a couple fights at 140. Honestly not many will give Pacquiao trouble but Crawford has the ability to be competitive.

          Clearly Beltran is not Pacquiao but just going by the eye test.

            Beltran touched him at times and at times fell short. That's because of Crawford's tendency to back up with his chin in the air, a faster guy with a solid straight can cause problems. Since he's very technical I think he can improve on that if he gradually faces tougher competition.

              Yeah, I think he'll need to tighten up that defense once at 140 against men his own size. I think there's already signs his chin may be a liability, especially at 140-147 against big hitters. Still, he's proven to be a multi-dimensional fighter and his career will be interesting to follow.

                Crawford is a very special fighter and I think he he will train even harder at 140 becuase he will understand that the comp will be more dangerous there.

                  Thank God Crawford's tenure at 135 is over. That division needs to be deleted.

                  Still somewhat disgusted at the undercard scoring. American scoring is the worst in the sport.
