That's bs. Both Floyd and Manny are one in a million type athletes. The reason why they suck at other sports is because their bodies are finely tuned to boxing. Anything else just looks awkward. Being under 5'8 doesn't help either.floyd cant switch hit like crawford.
he's not really that great of an athlete. he's just like pacquiao. they were forced to box due to their circumstances (pacquiao being poor third worlder, floyd being in a boxing family).
neither are really great NATURALLY talented athletes.
they became who they are through sheer physical determination.
its easily proven with how badly floyd sucks at dancing and basketball. same with manny who is even worse than floyd whose basketabll shooting form looks like a paranoid schizophrenic high on bath salts.
had floyd shown natural smoothness in both dancing and bball i would have thought differently...Comment

As a boxing fan, Floyd jr is the Michael Jordan of Boxing and
Terence Crawford is the LeBron James to be...no comparison!Comment

No but I'm rooting for Crawford, my biggest concern is Crawford's inside game, does he have one? That will determine if he can become great.Comment

yea I see more whitaker than floyd...those sneaky counter lefts from the southpaw stance and the nice body shots. Also even if bud doesnt stop you, he beats you up like whitaker did even though he wasnt a great puncher.
I think the way he adapts mid fight reminds people of floydComment

Crawford still needs to work on some things, namely his defense and, like Doctor Tenma posted, his inside game.
I see them as different fighters. To follow up on the hoops analogy above, Floyd would be Kobe while Craford would be Steph. Floyd is superior on both sides while the TC needs to tighten the defense and we do not know how well he'd fare with bigger opponents on the inside.
I truly hope Crawford fights Manny next.Comment
