I'd like to see Crawford fight the best opponent possible, I really don't care about Indongo, he's just not that great of a boxer. I'm more of a P4P guy, trinkets aren't my thing. Talent pool is too thin outside of a handful of divisions.

Crawford is a 2 division champ with sights on a third one. Neither he or his fans advocate camping. And he's not chasing down, but up.

Whereas when everybody, especially me made threads about 168 matchups, it was forbidden to talk about!

Originally posted by GhostofDempsey View PostIt wasn't forbidden it just wasn't realistic. All that nonsense about GGG ducking Ward at 168 when in fact no one was made an official offer and neither side say down for negotiations. It was a mythical match up and both sides accused the other of ducking. Fans of each will side with their guy in the never-ending argument over who avoided who.
Nice alt. This isn't about Ward, as much as you try. Should I bring up Benavidez vs GGG at 168? Or just bring up Ward?

The fights with thurman and Spence (if he wins) will be very difficult to make. Why not just make the easier fight?
I'm curious about something. You posted think Crawford would be cautious against Manny and thus the fight would be boring,
Spence, Brook and Thurman are bigger, younger and have more KO's at WW than Manny. Would Crawford be cautious against them?
It seems more likely that Crawford would be more cautious with the bigger, younger, stronger men. Crawford also hasn't fought anyone on these guys level. Yet you haven't suggested any of these fights would be boring and are calling for them?
Why the difference?

I have my doubts about whether or not Bud will ever fight the likes of Spence, Porter or Brook. I think he sees Thurman as an easier option and perhaps a safer one given his style, which yes--a Crawford/Thurman fight would not be fun to watch.
There are too many unanswered questions about Crawford. He has thus far impressed, but we have to consider the caliber of fighter's he has been in with before we start chanting he is the next coming of SRR.
