    Horn would kill Bud or Mayweather easily.

        You have to take a guy at what he is, with each step up...Crawford is highly talented and the fact the guy can switch southpaw and imo is actually better than he is in his normal stance tells a lot about how hard he's worked, and the level of talent. The vulnerabilities he's shown were vs Gamboa the most, however that's been a while and at the time, Gamboa was a very dangerous guy, and at 135 a very big puncher. He beat Postol, who might not have been the best guy, but he beat him without hardly taking any damage, Roach has admitted he isn't keen on Manny fighting him, and that's no accident he feels that way. Do I feel Floyd @ 140 was better? Yes, I absolutely do, but that's not saying Crawford will not step up his level ability a bit later either.

          You're a total imbecile if you truly believe that. I'd like to think no one would REALLY believe that deep down, so if you do, you need to be in special ed

            Arum used Pacquiao to create a potential cash cow. I see Horn fighting Vargas, Rios, Bradley and possibly Marquez (dont laugh bob arum is capable of anything match wise).

He gets hit more than he should(this one ****** said he was like Sweet Pea doe .) and imo his defense isn't that great. He's not very fast and I think his power is overrated, which we will see if he ever fights higher caliber opponents his own size. He is your typical HBO hype job until proven otherwise. Postol doe. Inactive, blown up Gamboa doe... the guy has a joke resume for a supposed "P4P" fighter.
              The fact that he can switch effectively speaks to his skill level.
              What makes his chin questionable? And considering every knock you just placed on Crawford, how does that add up to not being the goods? No one is calling him an ATG. He is just top 10 p4p. No one better at 140.

                "See a fool, use a fool" he sold pac fans vargas, he still hasnt built that stadium, remember when he said he didnt know how to contact mayweather to discuss the pac/may fight, remember "Yesterday I was lying but today im telling the truth?.....Dont blame a snake for being a snake, blame yourself for believing his bucket of bs. To quote/paraphrase W, Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, you cant fool me again...LMAO at you suckers

                  Under his pic it says WHITE taxpayer....hmmmmm maybe the WHITE part plays into his opinion.....You know white americans and how they feel about successful black people. Remember how they used to describe Mayweather when he was doing exactly what Connor is doing now.

                    Easy path to a third divisional title for Crawford. Then he can fight Pacquiao, Bradley, Vargas at that weight until Top Rank's WW prospects emerge (Ponomarev, Kavaliauskas, Ramirez). I don't see Crawford leaving WW for a long time. He'd be a very small JMW.

                      Bob Arum fixed this fight! Pacman would not fight Terrence Crawford, whom is Bob Arum new cash cow. Now that Horn is a champion, Crawford now has a belt at 147 in his sites. I believe this will give him negotiating power against the two other champions in the 147 division! Keith Thurman and Errol Spence!
