This was a great performance from Terence Crawford...

[sicko]

If we push him too much you LOSERS might start calling him the next "Jeff Lacy"

Love this fight because it showed that hat Crawford is a thinking man. He switched southpaw and neutralized Gamboa jab with that right hook over top.

He shows you something different every fight and is evolving into a well rounded and complete fighter.

Moving up though, he will miss the opportunity to unify the division. There's a lot of talk about Adrien Broner being in line to face Ricky Burns, if Burns can unify the IBF, IBO and WBA Super against Julius Indongo. Thing is we know that Broner can't make the weight... Terence Crawford versus the winner of that fight would be for... the IBF, IBO, WBA Super, WBC, WBO and RING magazine Super Lightweight titles... that is something worth sticking at 140 lbs. for one more year for.

why do people mention this title like it matters?

Eubank just won it so now the IBO is important allegedly lol

Unification is WBC, WBA and IBF...FUK THE REST!

ggg tards doesn't like Crawford

It doesn't matter on its own. Theoretically it's the fifth best of the alphabet straps. It is not a requirement but it completes the set. Don't forget, Roy Jones, Jr. held the IBA and the WBF haha!

Good thread. When people use the Gamboa fight as a way to bash Crawford it exposes their bias and/or lack of knowledge. He FINISHED a guy who has never been defeated and has looked stellar in most of his fights. This childish mentality that if you get caught in a fight (even if you win it) then you are trash. These same people criticize safety-first fighters.

It's hard to, without bias, say much bad about Crawford as a boxer. As a customer at a automotive shop, he's a severe idiot. As a boxer, one of the very best in the world.

Welcome back, Been gone for a while Red..
And good post!

Crawford got noticed for the versatile boxer and puncher he is... enough said

[Pigeons]

Ward and Crawford, my 2 favorite fighters.

Not really, Gamboa was way too small to be in the ring with crawford.

Not to small to drop him and hurt him.
