    I don't know if Diaz is really an elite guy, but if he is, then Crawford definitely needs to fight him. Crawford's opponents last year had neither speed or power. Just awful matchmaking. Total mismatches either in terms of levels, or just in terms of style. I want to see Crawford fight some top guys.

      You say molina came in against Crawford overweight and undertrained,granted he came in heavy, but he kept coming strong at Crawford as aggressive as ive ever seen,determined and In shape, giving as strong a performance as he was capable against the much more talented Champion, he should be given credit for his effort. Possibly keeping his strength by not cutting the necessary weight to keep it a title fight

        I dont know if Jake had Felix on the prospect of the year list because a fighter usually only lands once on his list but if he has not been on the list before, he deserved top honors as a prospect.

          Would be a good fight, Crawford would pull it off but would not be easy for sure. Would pick Diaz over Broner for sure. Any top Jr. WW and WW will have their hands full

            Dangerous fight! High-Risk, Low-reward! I think TC should target David Avanesyan (WBA #1 WW Contender), or Amir Khan (WBC #1 WW Contender). That will put him in position for a WW title fight in 2017!

              Diaz needs to be work his way up the rankings and earn a title shot.

              The can't duck you if you are the mandatory.

                I don't understand why boxers don't work their way up into becoming mandatories. The formula seems to be that if you cannot get the opportunity happen readily, stay active and work your way up the rankings. Along with showing up at press conferences and stuff, he should also stay active. Honestly, Diaz would be a good fight for TC. If this fight happens, the people who are calling Bud a ducker will eat their words. I can't help but to feel like it's the same people who were saying that Bud was ducking Postol... I like Diaz and I like his desire to fight the best. Hopefully, it works out for him...

                  didn't crawford's trainer said that diaz wasn't known, impossible to marketed and then complained because manny's people rejected him for the same reasons?

                    Get yourself into a mandatory position. FORCE THEM to fight you.

                      If he can't get anyone worthy in the ring I think Crawford should take the Diaz fight.
