    Gamboa is like 5'5 lol

    he's also an olympic gold medalist and has crazy hand speed. he already had 2 fights at 130/135 so while he did have a size disadvantage it's too overstated.

    While Gamboa did win some of the early rounds its not like he was dominating them.

      In 5 years time Crawford still won't have lost a fight.

      He run amok at 140 and 147 in that time, no danger.

        Crawford is very beatable IMO.

          Like all boxers, he will win some, lose some. It's all part of the game. But he will have his day in the sun with his elite skill set.

            I think Provodnikov could end up fighting Crawford whether he wins or loses.

              He's definitely overhyped. He has some admirable skill, but can't really transfer between offense and defense like you'd expect from someone people think will run the sport and all that. He's great at whichever he is focusing on in the moment, but at the expense of the other.

                Why are they showing this on the same night and time as the Junior-Fonfara card?

                  Would love to see Crawford vs Providnikov or Lucas. Can't wait for this card

                    That would be AWESOME! Better get Crawford all the fights while they still can because soon if he continues to win and get better every fight he will end up like GGG, Andrade, Ward, Rigondeaux... a good fighter struggling to find good opponents.

                      Crawford vs Provodnikov is in our future I guess.
