    He may not know it. There are Mexican Catholics in both the U.S and Mexico that are unaware of their distant ***ish ancestors.

    The Spanish Inquisition made many a *** a catholic!!

    There are groups in New Mexico and Mexico when genetically tested find out the truth.

    Some top **** were ***s too!

        Crawford don't suck, but I just don't see what others see in him. Crawford got "touched" himself by a much smaller, inactive Gamboa in his biggest fight to date.

        I'm not confident in his chances vs Postol. Basically I feel like Crawford is much closer to being a higher level version of ex-TR fighter Mike Jones than a future HOF/great fighter like many seem to be suggesting for him.

        Just like I'm confident Deontay Wilder is gonna get KTFO within the next 2yrs I feel like Crawford will too (or just lose, I suspect his chin is soft more than I know it for a fact). Assuming they get put into the fights they should be put into & don't just continue fighting opponents below the level they should be fighting.

          I'd like to see him go do something at welterweight first

              Crawford is overrated. Seems like people don't care he's fighting smaller guys. Can he fight a true 140 lb fighter before we crown him? He's never even been a lineal champ. Crawford might not beat Postol. And he wouldn't beat Kell Brook or Tim Bradley. Guys getting crowned for looking good in mismatches.

                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.
                Khan?

                If people like Diaz, Peterson, Garcia, Algieri didn't ave a lot of problem with his speed. I think Floyd would have no problem and apart from speed, Khan doesn't have any other elite attributes.

                Easy work for Floyd.

                  It would take a young Floyd to beat this version of Floyd. I don't see any fighters out there that look like a young Floyd. Floyd looked unbeatable when he was coming up. He's only lost on one scorecard his whole career and got a MD on another. That's dominance.

                      The switchhitting would help him to throw off his timing against floyd but I need to see more than just that to start making a claim like that.
