    GGGgets crticized for having a bad resume. Why doesnt the same happen to Crawford?

    Crawford is praised as being top 2 P4P but if you look at his resume it doesn't scraem P4P 1 or 2 status. For all the **** GGG receives, I must say that Danny Jacobs is better than anything on Crawford's resume. Hell, even Danny Garcia and Amir Khan had better resumes at 140. What's up with all the hype?

      Neither should be criticized. They are both are top fighters in the sport who fight the best competition that will actually agree to face them. Criticize the guys who have ducked them or pretended that they dont exist.

          I have seen it for both but Golovkin gets it far more because so many outlets and fans have had him as their p4p number one, two, three for years. Crawford's fought more celebrated fighters at the time he fought them and moved up in weight, and received far, far, far less accolades than Golovkin. So there's less backlash. The praise Crawford gets is deep within the hardcore boxing fans community and it's frustrating that he's been doing the quality and not getting the attention anywhere near Golovkin within his own country.

          Why bother criticizing a resume of a fighter like Crawford who is not having countless threads about him as an ATG and measured against guys like Hopkins and Hagler? When people start comparing him to Duran, Arguello and Mayweather constantly, then we an talk about how his resume lacks. If Golovkin was still as obscure as he was when he first stepped up against Proksa and had done all this work since then, you'd have people talking about how great is resume is and why isn't he a household name and why does America hate foreign fighters and the burden of the Eurasian man in the world today. Praise and criticism often relate to how much fanfare a guy gets.

              Crawford isn't out here turning down fights and making excuses.

                How is he a weight bully. Diaz weighed four pounds more than him after rehydration. Dulorme, Molina, and Diaz have all fought at 147 before. Molina failed to even make 140. Indongo and Postol are large junior welters as well with Indongo even calling Crawford small.
