Comments Thread For: Arum: Crawford Will Be at Level of Mayweather, Pacquiao

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

University of Texas at Arlington- Shortly after Terence Crawford captured the vacant WBO super lightweight title with a sixth round stoppage of Thomas Dulorme, BoxingScene.com caught up with Hall of Fame Promoter Bob Arum to get his thoughts on his fighter's performance.

Arum said what really separates Crawford from the pack is his intelligence and patience. Crawford took a few rounds to figure out Dulorme and then delivered the right hand in the sixth round that for all intents and purposes ended the fight.

Nope - doesn't have that level of natural talent, speed. I think he'll be pretty great though.

Crawford vs Mikey garcia, manny, Bradley has to be the fights arum is eyeing in the future

[Prawn Jovi]

From what I've seen so far, I'm inclined to agree that he will be at the top of the sport soon. I thought his last 3 fights against Gamboa, Beltran, and Dulorme have been great outings and would favor him over Matthysse, Broner, and Garcia at this point. I know that Gamboa had some moments early, but Crawford seems to be able to adjust really well against his opposition thus far.

Time will tell...

Moving from 140 to the glamor 147 division is a whole different ball game..

A lot of people have tried and many have failed. ...Most recently... Broner, Guerrero, lesser extent Bradley...Amir Khan (to be determined)...

Crawford at 140 should be fine though. He has physical advantages still at 140.

Once Mayweather beats Pacquiao, Crawford will finish off whats left of Pacquiao. Crawfords ring IQ is a sight to behold.
