by David P. Greisman - Terence Crawford was the star of the show.

He was the headline fighter in the main event of a boxing card taking place in the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City and being broadcast on HBO. He was a two-division world titleholder with an undefeated record whose skills had landed him on lists of the best boxers in the world.

Crawford is very talented for sure but not to an extreme level. I can't help feeling he is no more talented than Andrade at 154 - it's just that Crawford is being built by HBO and Andrade's career, if you can call it that at this point, is falling apart. If Crawford had the personality of Broner , or even Lundy, he would be much more watchable.

Apart from Postol there is no one at 140 who can challenge him unless I am under-estimating Broner. Postol has to be made surely. Then Crawford can move up and fight some of the smaller but better WWs - Pacquaio (if he stays), Garcia. Crawford - Spence in late 2017 would be awesome.

Crawford needs to beat Postol and then fight the winner of Sadam Ali vs. Vargas for the WW title. After that, I think Crawford needs to see if Arum can get him some Haymon opponents @ WW, or leave Arum when his contract is up. There are plenty of fights available @ 147, if he's with Haymon!

The Gamboa fight proved that there are levels in boxing, that's all.
.
Lundy is reading far too much into that 1 fight.

Bud will be fine once he adapts to welter, but I don't see the hurry.
