If Crawford becomes undisputed at 140

[Thraxox]

Beating them won't do it ...not by a looong shot.

LOL of course it would. Canelo is close to a future HOF. Jacobs is a good fighter. And GGG would break the record defences of Bhop of course it would make him in to the HOD, not to mention some good fights in the future at 168.

Not even close. Again weak ass opposition, he wouldn't be. Unifying with no names isn't something to be proud of.

arnt you a diehard GGG fan??? did you really post this ****?

It's not about winning all these paper titles, it's about who you beat. Crawford has 1 credible win on his resume and that's Postol. Floyd was only at 140 for 2 or 3 fights I believe. These titles look good on paper, but who is he winning them against?

There's absolutely no comparison between Mayweather and Crawford, in terms of resume or skill. Different caliber of fighters.

So are you saying that Gatti is better than Postol, Dulmore, and Gamboa? And I disagree, I think Crawford is just as skilled he does everything better except defense and creating angles.

I didn't say that. But 140 was Floyd's briefest weight class. The Gamboa fight was at 135, Gamboa is like half of Crawford's size and naturally 2/3 weight classes smaller. Dulorme is a C - fighter. Postol is Crawford's only credible win and even he's relatively unproven.

You think Crawford is just as skilled as Mayweather? I think we're done here

In your opinion what does Floyd do better?

He has a better ring IQ, defence, punch selection, accuracy, jab, right hand, speed (hands and feet) and basically anything else you can think of. And he proved his skills against top opposition for almost 2 decades.

I can't believe this is even a serious discussion. Crawford has a lot to prove, he needs to start fighting credible opponents, he's nearly 30 now...

How do you think Crawford would do against the fighters Floyd fought. Like Judah, Corrales, Marques, Gatti, Hatton, Barrera, and Cotto? I'm not going to include Pac because I think Pac beats him.

Hard to say because we haven't seen Crawford in the ring with top level fighters, different styles etc.

I've seen footage of Crawford getting thoroughly outboxed by Sadam Ali in the amateurs, it was a fan recorded video on youtube which has been taken down now. If you do some research on his amateur background, you'll see he took a lot of losses against guys like Garcia, Belmontes, Ugas etc. He's obviously made improvements since then, but your amateur background is a strong indicator of your skill level and I'm just not sold on Crawford skillwise. It's not just his resume.

He loses too many rounds against low level fighters for my liking, guys like Burns, Dulorme, Lundy etc.

I would love to see him fight Felix Diaz, that would be a true test of his skill and the best opponent he's fought to date.

I said the same thing. I still don't know why he ducked him.
