      Should it be hyped up

      It's a nice fight because all the straps are on the line. 140 is a shallow as Sh.it division . look how all the belts came to be for this fight

      Crawford got his first strap in a vacant over Dulhorne and beat Postol who had 1 notable fight who got his strap through vacancy

      Indongo beat Trovansky to get his first belt who didnt beat anyone of substance his entire career and beat a guy who never fought out of Argentina to get it and then beat Burns another fighter who got his strap from beating a nobody in a vacant fight. I'm not even sold on Indongo

      No one got their 4 straps from beating the man it was more of being at the right place at the right time the closest fight would be Postol / Lucas for the vacant WBC . All the fights for the straps were against sub par competition and now we have a fight for all 4 straps in a weak division. Look at the original belt holders Postol,Indongo,Burns,Crawford & Tyvisky and the only somewhat decent name any of those fighters have on their resume at 140 is a shop worn Lucas Mattysse( who technically was never even a World champion)

      Just look at how Danny Garcia earned his straps
      Beat HOF Moreales to get his 1st in a vacancy
      Upset Khan to grab the 2nd
      Should have got his 3rd over Lucas but Matthysse/Lamint wasn't for strap didn't matter beat Lamont down the road. All legit names to get it

      That's how it should be not this pathetic version of how it's going down

      Please tell me why this fight should be hyped up

          Prime Morales would have murdered Garcia within 7 rounds

            Whatever man . You can honestly tell me that Garcia first strap should be looked down upon when he was A 23-24 year old beating a first ballot HOF in Moreales ( who was such a living corpse that he gave Maidana a run for his money a year before ) for his first strap

            Especially when you consider how all these guys got theirs

            Crawford beat Dulhorne
            Burns beat Di Rocco
            Postol beat Matthysse
            Indigo beat Trvosky ( Trovisky beat Cuenca ? )

            I'd take Garcias win over all of those in fact That win is almost a better win then almost any win that those other 5 have put together at 140.

                You speak many truths, but Terence Crawford is a genuine Elite talent in the sport. Collecting all of the major belts in a division is a commendable feat in itself. It is a shame though, as soon as a decent looking contender in Mikey Garcia comes along, Crawford will likely unify then move up to Welterweight.

                Terence Crawford vs. Mikey Garcia for the IBF, IBO, Lineal, RING, WBA Super, WBC and WBO titles would be a career-defining fight for both fighters. Really has the makings of a classic rivalry.

                  I agree

                  Crawford is a beast, I'm a fan of his

                  This is probably the #1 vs #2or 3 guy fighting for all the belts. It's a ok fight that I'm glad is made

                  But there's littke hype because how everyone involved got their belts and 140 while it once was a deep division right now is Sh.it. Like I said before Im not even sold yet on Indongo he may just been at the right place right time

                  So to me it's a decent fight but not a great fight and its lack of hype is warranted because even though it maybe for all the straps it doesn't mean that much

                    I am very interested in this fight. Crawford is one of the best fighters in the world and he is fighting a worthy champion for all the belts. Crawford is a big favorite to win but his tall, fast opponent might give him a hard fight.
