Is Terence Crawford overrated

[DumpkinsPlus5]

but yet people are claiming that he will go up to 147 and clear out the division.

Who said that?

That statement is overrating him, but has that actually been said? And has it been said enough for you to say "people" have been claiming this?

The 'are they overrated' question doesn't really work because the answer depends on who's doing the rating. Most fighters on a win streak are being overrated by at least some people.

He's clearly one of the top 10 fighters in the world right now so unless people are putting him in the top 3 spots I wouldn't say he's overrated.

Most put him top 5. I have h8m number 6 or 7.

We all know that Crawford doesn't have any opposition at 140... But going North right now is a totally different thing...

Yes, there have been people on youtube and on this forum who have claimed that he would beat Thurman, Spence, Porter, and Brook. I personally don't think he beats any of those guys. Hell, even Berto would give him problems.

Why do you say that?

[MisanthropicNY]

Literally this summer..yea just this summer Postol was suppose to beat him.. I mean i can literally bump threads right now where he was suppose to lose that fight..Now all the sudden that fight is down played for some reason. And no he is not even hyped he is a solid fighter who is a 2 division champion and now lineal at 140 and i hope he becomes undisputed there

Pistol is a featherfist lol. Lineal - everyone who was any good left the division lol.

You'd need to combine all of the dog in each of those guys to equal the dog in Crawford.

Most put him top 5. I have h8m number 6 or 7.

Loma, GGG, Ward, Kova, Canelo, Thurman, Danny Garcia - don't have better resumes? I'd put him 8 though above Rigo and Choco - and that's just because boxing is so horrible right now.

Dude fought a small chinny Gamboa, no-power Postol and journeyman Molina? Those are his 3 biggest wins lol. But having him 7 isn't crazy - that's how you know boxing is in a ****hole right now.

I think people saying Postol would beat him were basing that on the Lucas win - Lucas was shot then and Gamboa giving Crawford a boxing lesson much of the fight until running out of gas and having a weak Chin.

I actually think Pacquiao will beat Crawford but get screwed by the judges if that fight happens. PAC won't knock him out so the Judges will give another fighter of color a gift.
