    Terence Crawford - the type of boxer I like.

    No clinching or running, just pure boxing + killer instinct, you could see clearly that Crawford enjoys fighting and whooping your ass.

    He seems to have a whole package: speed, power, stamina, footwork, jab. The only questionable thing about him is his chin, I dont know if it would hold up against punchers like Provod or Matthysse, but I said same thing about Postol (cuz Postol got hurt by mediocre puncher Aydin) but he ate some Matthysse's bombs and didnt go down...

    The most impressive thing about Crawford is his usage of south paw stance, not only its pretty rare, but its also very rare when someone uses it as succesful as Crawford.

    Bud is now officially added to my top 10 favorite active fighters.

    I was going to say some vitriol. But **** it, you posted something positive and should be commended for it.

      Maybe he has almost a complete package as a fighter but he won't be a big draw. He's not exactly Mr. Charisma outside of the ring is he?

      He makes Andre Ward look like Hector Camacho.

      Not that it should matter. It doesn't to me, i'll enjoy his fights. But in terms of his own money making and business, this could be the downfall.

          Yeah but when it's in his best interest to move and box you guys will be leaving the bandwagon. After the Prescott fight they were calling him boring.

            I wanted to mention this, but I didnt, hehe. He is very boring outside the ring, in interviews etc... but inside the ring like I said, you can see in his face that he enjoys fighting, he smiles and he looks vicious, when he is landing his combos, while his opponent is on ropes. I think with time and HBO hype machine he can become a star.

              He's definitely getting better with interviews. You should have seen him when he came over to the UK to fight Burns. It was like pulling teeth. One word answers to everything. So awkward to watch.

              I already rated him in my top 10 P4P. It was a nice performance last night but Jean was a mediocre opponent.

                Maybe those fluorescent fats dancing at ringside should be interviewed. They look pretty entertaining.
