    Yep, just a two weight class unified champion, he clearly fought only bums

        Spence is really good and would pose a threat to Crawford, he would stand a chance, and that's only because he's a much bigger guy. But Thurman would loose easily to Crawford.

          Think Thurman would have to catch Crawford early on in the fight, and win a few exchanges in the center of the ring.

          Thurman has that offensive "awkwardness" with power that might be too much for Crawford to get comfortable with and start setting up traps for counters later on.

          Have to see Bud in with some legit WW's before I give him the nod.

            How can you say easily when he hasnt fought anyone on Thurman's level.

              Because Crawford skillset is too much. Since Thurman isn't taller or have more reach, he would basically rely on the puncher chance

                What happened when he fought Gamboa? What do you think Thurman would to him. He hasnt fought and beaten anyone that makes me think that he would beat Thurman.

                  Spence isn't actually a "much" bigger guy than Crawford. Crawford rehydrates to 155-157 and spence at 154-156, they are the same size with both of them standing at 5'9.

                    People always bring that up, it's unclear if Gamboa hurt Crawford in round 9. Yet, other than that, he never looked to be hurt in the ring and yet everyone who hate Crawford will accuse him of suspect chin. Anyway, haters gonna hate, Gamboa was too small, Postol was too robotic, Molina was too drained, other fighters are all bums, whatever.

                      Well actually Crawford is listed at 5'8. Crawford started his career at 135 while Spence started at 147 and is considered a big 147.
