Crawford beats anybody south of 147

[Crazylegs77]

Crawford possesses great skills and can fight at either range.

He's grown out of Lightweight and that's a good thing because the better challengers are waiting at 140. I think he creams the competition at 140 and only a matter of time before he takes over from Garcia.

140 threats;
Herrera
Garcia
Matthysee
Provodnikov
Algieri
Pistol
Vargas
Broner

I only see Herrera putting up a contest with Bud. A fight with Broner will be real interesting doe

Thats an understatement "grown out of lightweight" he weighed 18 lbs over the limit on fightnight.

Jr Welter or Welter.
Lots of good fights to be made there.

Garcia and Broner would be nice but really doubt those guys step into the ring with Crawford.

Need to see him with guys his own size, he's looked huge in recent fights.

not only that he fights in his hometown like andre ward

[RULE]

not only that he fights in his hometown like andre ward

in only his last two fights and its good to see boxing somewhere else for a change. the Ward comparisons are becoming more overly ridiculous on this site.

Hold your horses....
Herrera - 50/50 fight
Garcia - ko in rd 2. Slow 1 punch/5 minutes beltran showed how easy to land a left hook on TC.
Matthysee - TC can do it
Provodnikov- same
Algieri-chris outboxes him
Pistol-???
Vargas-he will show what TC is made of. A win by either makes them a star.
Broner-TC demolishes him

Matthysse-Crawford could be interesting, what happens when a guy Crawford's own size lands a punch HARD, how well does he take it then?
I think Crawford has what it takes to be very competitive at Junior Welterweight, and could probably beat all the top fighters on a good day, but I still feel he gets hit clean a bit too much and may ultimately pay the price

Beltran was landing come forward, moving with your opponent type hooks. Danny doesn't really throw those, and when you land a left hook while moving with your opponent it takes a lot of steam out of the punch.

TC won't allow Danny to plant his feet, and let one off on him like that. Danny is more of the stand still, and wait for you to over commit type left hooker.

I think TC easily beats DG.

Its not inconceivable for him to beat every 140 lb. fighter. The guy can just pot shot his way to wins against anyone, and that even includes Manny. Its not that he's Sugar Ray Leonard, but his style will always be an advantage over most styles from the opening bell.

That being said, its gonna take a special athlete, and skilled fighter to beat him, such as Manny.

I think Manny and Lucas has the best chances of beating him.

I'd still favor him > Lucas.

No just no its only going take a brawler with pwr that can cut the ring off to beat crawford no special fighter needed to beat him

It always takes a "brawler with power" to beat a boxer. Then what happens? The boxer turns his ass every time they come close, and gets pot shotted to death. Why don't you think Beltran didn't go at him non stop? You think TC's throwing love taps?

Beltran would've been stopped if he charged at him like a bull.

Brawlers are successful when they brawl with mid tier, and good fighters. They get tagged all night, and confused by the 6th round against boxers.

The only brawler that can beat TC is Lucas, and he's not really a brawler.

A pure brawler is Ruslan. He'd get dominated.

And yes, its gonna take someone special to beat him.

I think Matthysse and Peterson would give Crawford a tough fight
