Will Crawford Be The Greatest of His Generation.

[GhostofDempsey]

What of he beats Diaz on Saturday?

It's a good win, but certainly not a career defining win. It's a fight he is supposed to win.

[Rudiamonds]

Not if Loma is gonna keep winning

Loma great but he got beat up by a solido

[Madison Boxing]

no. he wont be.

[Larry the boss]

no. he wont be.

why wont he be?

[MPX309]

Loma great but he got beat up by a solido

valid. I think he'd win in the rematch though.

[Raonic]

I don't think so but moreso because of how good I believe other fighters will be. Crawford should be a very good fighter.

[BoxingIsGreat]

Crawford is a special fighter. He needs stiffer challenges at this point to gauge whether he'll be the next best fighter. After the Diaz fight, he could try his craft at welter, where there are many good fighters. I also wouldn't mind seeing him fight Lomachenko at 140 before he moves on to welter.

[Jsmooth9876]

Not if he never gets to fight anyone worth a damn he won't.

[THC]

The potential exists. Skillset is real. Seems mentally tough. He just needs to stay out of trouble outside the ring, start fighting higher profile names, and gain more fans outside Nebraska. He's going to be hard to beat when he settles at WW.

[soul_survivor]

It's incredibly too early in his career to make that statement on any level.

too early?

The man is 9 years into his pro career and has had 30 pro fights. That is not too early at all. A problem no one wants to admit is that his career has stalled and at 29 (almost 30 man, that was an age when legends were already legends) he should not be claiming he needs more time to fight Pac or jumping at the chance to fight 147 pounders.
