Comments Thread For: Arum: Crawford Will Go Down as the Best Fighter of His Era

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Agree to disagree.

Don't get me wrong, I've watched Crawford since his ESPN days and I think he's a tremendous fighter. But IMO unless he picks it up big time, not a chance to be the best of this era.

As of right now Ward is light years ahead of him.

This is very achievable

If he breaks JCC's defense record of 18 and then goes on to defeat whoever is at the top of 147, he'll be in the conversation.

Good grief.
Don't get me wrong, Crawford is good, but...
HE'S BEATEN NOBODY!
His ONLY notable victory is Victor friggin Postol. Give me a break. Let Crawford earn his way up to this gloating. When he starts beating notable opponents, then I'll give him the credit he deserves. Until then, he's just hype.
I do have high hopes for him, but he's still proven absolutely nothing as of yet.

So you're saying all the so call top rated guys earned their way up to their gloating? Remember this is boxing! One of the most crooked sports in the world! Theirs no doubt Crawford is one of the best but don't blame him for his opponents are not up to his standards. It doesn't matter what he does, he will never get the credit he deserves when people just want to see you loose!

Arum needs to just go ahead and feed pac to Crawford so Crawford can wash him the way pac did to Oscar. Then he'll be well on his way to superstar status.

I like Crawford but Idk about all this. He's 28 already I think? And his resume is utterly thin.

Loma is older than Crawford with an even thinner resume.

[Kigali]

hes close to 30 and hes fought a grand total of

1 legit opponent.

Loma is closer to 30 and has yet to fight a legit opponent.

Russell and Walters aren't legit?
They're two of the best in their divisions and haven't lost to anyone but Loma.

Who else did Postol lose to?

Last I checked Crawford is undefeated.

No doubt is crawford good and he has all the potential in the world to be the best but come on his best wins are old FW Gamboa, Ricky Burns who's good but nothing special and not elite, and Postol who beat Mattyse something DSG did a while back. He just needs to step it up. Unify with Indongo and then retire PAC ! I'm all about it

When did I say anything bad about Crawford. He's one of the best. One thing has nothing to do with the other.

I still don't get why you are so emotional about Lomachenko.
