    You can make an argument either way. Personally I have Crawford number 4 behind Chocolatito, Kovalev, and Ward. The man is a 2 division LINEAL champion which means he beat whoever was the top guy in his division.

      That's what separates him from GGG. Outside of those 2 wins I agree with you, the resumes are a wash.
      How is Gamboa a good win for Crawford? It's basically the same as GGG vs Brook and I can promise you GGG will get no credit for beating Brook. Postol was a good win but besides that I don't think their resume are much different. To me though GGG looks like the superior boxer and have superior strength.

        That's because he's fighting no-hopers. Shameful resume at 34. I don't care who he ducked or who ducked him.

              No it's not. Gamboa was a special fighter and a ranked lightweight

                Lara's one dimensional but still an excellent fighter. If your very good at your one dimension you can still be an elite fighter

                  Postol got robbed. I'm not saying he dominated, but i'd say Crawford only clearly won 2 or 3 rounds, plus some lucky flash knockdowns.
                  lol..are you serious?? Postol even knew he got dominated

                    What? I was trying to say beating someone two weight class below you should get you no credit. I can't imagine Canelo would get credit if he beats Crawford or if GGG beats Pac or Floyd.

                      Gamboa was not 2 divisions below . He was a ranked lightweight and campaigning in that division.
