        I've been sold for a while on Crawford.

        He's an extremely talented guy and has a huge future ahead of him.

Get real man crawford is the new mike dallas at 140 and will get flushed down the toliet like *s*h*i*t* in fact these fights tell me he has a suspect chin, no pwr and leaky defense. Crawford has a lot to do to convince me that he is worth a s*h*i*t right now he is garbage and false hope
          You think he stands no chance at 140, while I think he's shown enough @135 to predict that he'll be able to beat top 20 opposition. If he's as great as some in this thread feel, then he should have few issues doing so.

            So beating c class fighters and undersize Gamboa tells you he will hang with the big dogs 140? Like I side before we seen this before in Berto,Ortiz,broner and Judah until he beat someone legit then thier is something to talk about. Right now he is only beating demarco,soto, not sure about Vargas or even herra

              Crawford can give you a lot of different looks. He can fight southpaw or orthodox, he can lead or counter.

                what makes him special is because he can lead or counter punch. He can fight orthodox or southpaw. He seems to have a chin and when he gets hit he wants to throw 3 back.

                  He's aight.

                  But the future of this sport belongs to Lomachenko.

                    Only time will tell but its silly to write him off completely when he hasn't fought at 140. Give the man a shot to prove himself. Crawford could very well handle the weight well and be a force to be reckon with.

                      When Broner beat Demarco, in my eyes he was the best lightweight. I didn't see Broner losing to anyone in that division at that time. It's the same thing with Crawford, he's the best fighter at that division. There is a big difference between 135 and 140 though.

                      Crawford is more talented than Broner, but he gets hit, and he will get cracked. I don't see a complete fighter in Crawford. Instead I see raw talent, that does most things well but nothing great. 140 is deep with punchers and like it always does, a guy like Crawford who can't punch will eventually be broken down and beat.
                      when he beat Demarco, in your eyes he was the best lightweight good example of a guy who don't know crap about boxing. Demarco was never the best guy at 135 EVER. Crawford has not fought anybody worth a dam at 135 just like Broner none of these guys want to fight the 2 best fighter at 135 which are and have always been Vasquez he has fougth the most number 1 contenders at that weight also got rob against Bey and Richar abril BEAT THE MAN AT 135 and got rob Rios Bam Bam

                      it just blows my mind how anybody could think Demarco,Ricky and Beltran are good fighters they are straight up trash the best fighters Crawford has fought was Gambao a little guy

                      if Crawford WANTS TO BE THE MAN AT 135 HE NEEDS TO BEAT VASQUEZ OR ABRILL period
