I agree.
Bernstein says "only one that can touch Floyd is Crawford"

Khan is the only one who would have beaten Floyd at this point in his career and I think it would have been a clear cut win. Crawford hasn't even had a fight at 147 yet. He's been fighting much smaller guys so far. He's definitely got skills but nearly every talented fighter looks deceptively good when they fight smaller guys. Look at Manny for example, he hasn't had a single knockout at the full 147 limit but at 140, or below, the majority of his fights were KO wins. Mcgregor, the UFC guy, is another recent example. He was fighting smaller men, looking like a beast but he stepped up in weight and got beat in 2 rounds.
My point is, it's way too soon to tell how good Crawford might be at 147 until he actually fights at the weight for a year or so against decent opposition.Comment
