Matthysse would be serious trouble for him too. Terrence Crawford is one of the biggest boilers in boxing. He got hurt and stumbled by a tiny and badly beaten Gamboa.
I think he might be an exceptional boxer but he is unproven yet. Who's he beaten?
I know Crawford hasnt made any big impressions @140 but do you see anyone in Jr. WW giving him any problems or is capable of beating him? Personally I dont because skills pay the bills and Crawford brings something very special to the sport and if anyone can make him a star its Bob Arum.
I think Matthysse would knock him out.You asked the question and that's my honest opinion. Crawford is good but he can be hurt. Gamboa hurt him and Matthysse is much bigger and stronger than Gamboa. Matthysse hits harder and take a punch much better than Gamboa. Crawford is an aggressive fighter who comes forward and that's just what Lucas likes. It would be a hard fight but Lucas would win it. I really don't think Garcia can comfortably make 140 anymore but if he could I think he would also knock out Crawford.
How do you think Crawford would do against Danny Garcia? Broner?
Danny won't ever be at 140 again,, but if he was I can see him and crawford being a pick'em fight with a slight edge to crawford because of his movement..
Matthysse. Crawford hasn't faced a real good pressure fighter yet. Those are the types of fights that make or break you.
The winner of Matthysse-Provodnikov is the best fight for Crawford if he really wants recognition.
Matthysse should win, handily I think too. But if Provodnikov surprises me and proves me wrong he still has the style to hurt Crawford especially if Crawford goes southpaw.
