Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Won't Get Credit for Beating Pacquiao AND Lomachenko

[Hatesrats]

TC is 100% correct!!

He beats Pax into retirement and he gets the "He was old az fugg/Shot" wrap...
He beats the pizz outta Loma and he gets the he is "slapping a midget" wrap...

"Bud" beats both & Arum knows this, Which is why Bobbi is undecided in which star will be fed the "Manny Shot"

All your points are valid. But Crawford just came out and said he is p4p no.2. If you are p4p no.2 then its not asking too much that you move up a weight and at least fight some of the contenders - Vargas, Khan, garcia.

Same people who criticised Tean GGG for saying 154-168 and not proving it are now saying that Crawford is just fine at 140. Lets face it, he's a 2 weight champion but he was huge at 135 so his weight on fight night was a considerable factor. Right now he is where he is supposed to be but he hasn't done enough to state he is no.2 p4p - if you want to shout that out then better seek a challenge like Ward did.

Pacquiao is still one of the top welterweights In the world and still looks pretty dominant. What makes you think Crawford beats Manny? If a 5 ft 4 gamboa troubles and stings Crawford what do you think a harder punching more defensively responsible Pacquiao would do to him ??

Stop fighting bums and you'll get all the credit you deserve!

He's right. He shouldn't be butthurt though, sports fans and boxing fans are mostly rabid idiots. There's fanboys and haters and that takes up about 80% of what you see online and they post more and therefore they are seen more.

As an objective fan I think he's right people will nitpick. If he doesn't fight Lomachenko people will cry that he's ducking him or that he has to beat him and if he did those same people would discredit it.

His career is going fine so far and lets look at it in the perspective that he's been at the championship level for 3 years. He beat Klimov and Prescott to earn the title shot. He went to hostile territory and beat Burns to win the title, he defended as an underdog in his first title defense against Gamboa (the same Gamboa who seemingly scared Mikey Garcia out of the sport for a while) and then beat a very good contender in Beltran (shut out). At 140 he's had one top opponent in Postol, who was coming off an excellent win and who a lot of people felt would win or give Crawford major problems. Remember Bud was "ducking" Postol?

Now he's "ducking" Diaz who he signs to fight. What's gonna happen when he smokes Diaz?

Whats gonna happen when he smokes Diaz? Not that much as Diaz is not that known.

This dude is taking a page out of the "what not to say to the press handbook". This is why I like Thurman so much now, he let the legends be and said "I want to be the best of the new generation" instead this dude talking about Loma and Pacquaio. How about calling out Broner, the two Garcia's, Porter once he's done with Berto. Can't cry about not getting credit when you ain't calling out who you should be calling out.

Crawford is just like the rest of the whining cry baby ***s.

Give me give me give me give me....Earn it mother***er.

Its the the ***ing welfare syndrome. Mother***ers standing in line with their hand out wanting someone to give them something for nothing. Get a job mother***ers and stop living off what you want the easy way. WELFARE SYNDROME

You want to be the best. BEAT the ***ing best! Constantly. Stop crying about not getting your respect.

stick this up your azz TC!

Lomachenko is too small. Welterweight is where he'll get credit.
