Is Crawford being underrated

[-Kev-]

We don't really know who he could beat because he has one really good opponent in Postol. But he's obviously very good, he makes B fighters look terrible, so that means he's an A fighter. A WW run would show how good he is, he's too much for 140. I felt Postol was the last good fighter at 140 and TC beat him. TC can't linger at 140 just waiting for Lightweights and Super featherweights like Lomachenko and Mikey to come up, leave that b#tch move to other fighters. Move up to 147. The only way fighting Loma or Mikey is justifiable is that if they first can show they belong there by KO'ing a top 3 JWW and winning a belt. That's not gonna happen right now, so just move up.

It doesn't take a boxing expert to see that Crawford is special. Personally I think he shouldn't move up till he has too. He's really a natural 135 pounder.
When you can't make weight is when you go up. You start rushing into bigger fighters. Your going to be put on your a/ss. I don't care how good you are.

But all the greats did it to prove that they are great

You do it when your body is ready. Not when your fans are ready. There's a reason why we have weight classes.
I'll tell you a little secret. There's a very good reason why a retired lite weight who now weighs 200 pounds DOESNT come out of retirement and fight a heavy weight.

In professional boxing it's a far bigger deal fighting a guy who out weights you by 15 pounds than on the street.
Don't believe it. Go to a boxing gym and get in there with a top 10 professional boxer who out weights you by 15 pounds.

Nobody is underrating Crawford, he's in top 5 p4p already. Yes, I was criticizing Gamboa and Postol wins (I've said I won't be criticizing Diaz - Bud just made solid Olympian look ******) but the fact remains - he's dominant in his division.

The fact is, boxers with the skillset of Crawford would have a good chance against any fighter that ever lived, a win over Crawford wouldn't be guaranteed for nobody - Tzsyu, Oscar, even Floyd....I don't say that Crawford beats them, I'm saying that you can't be 100% confident about the outcome...I think only thing you can do against boxers with skills of Loma, Crawford or Rigondeaux is to have a competitive close fight with them and hope that judges will be on your side, but you can't outbox them or make them look ****** in the ring
