    SIMPLE! Crawford doesn't get the HYPE that GGG does! Crawford not being called "The Greatest" "The Greatest Middleweight Ever" and all that stuff before putting together a respectable Resume like GGG was especially on this forum.

    Crawford is earning his P4P Status by UNIFYING 140 and making History! Having the Ability to Walk around and Promote yourself as Undisputed with all those Belts...It is no ***ing HYPE needed and it is really nothing his critics can say if he does that. NOBODY ELSE can claim they're Undisputed besides the winner of Crawford vs Indongo! That to me is so big that if Crawford beats Indongo he goes to #1 P4P even over Ward. Ward likely reclaims it back but those two kinda separate themselves from the P4P Pack especially if Ward too can do the Stevenson fight and become Undisputed at 175 before going to explore at Heavyweight with Bellew or whoever!

      No one on Crawford's resume is great. A bunch a b and c level fighters. Al least Ward has two A level fighters on his resume. Hell, even Thurman, Spence, Danny, Loma, and Rigo have a better Resume. Porter, Brook, Walters, Donaire, Garcia, Kov, and Froch is better than anything on Crawford's resume. This undisputed **** is getting way too out of hand. Last i checked, Tszyu unified all the belts. Would you rank him over Oscar, Manny, Floyd, and Pryor?

            no you wouldnt put tsyzu up there with manny, floyd and oscar....but you wouldnt put ggg or crawford there either...thats the problem..ggg fans want to put ggg there right now...and they think they definitley can if he beats canelo which is insane in itself....

            you dont make a legacy fight against a guy with 0 wins in a division youve spent your entire career in

                Im not even GGG fan. I already said he has to step it up. if he beats Canelo, He is P4P top 3 and maybe one. That doesn't mean I put him over Hagler, Hopkins, and Roy.

                  Once again HYPE! Have yet see a thread about Crawford being "THE GREATEST Jr. Welterweight EVER! Not only that but Crawford is also just getting started, just hitting his stride as a Prime Fighter Crawford is not near the end. The Resume Improves like at 147 IF Arum allows him to fight other top guys at 147 when he does move up. Also last time I checked Crawford been calling for Pacquiao for 2 years now. That WOULD be the boost to his Resume even a older Pacquiao now but it is not his fault Pacquiao doesn't want to fight him

                    Ok. Some Golovkin fans want to put him up with Manny, Floyd and Oscar. There vocal but they are in the minority. Golovkin is a come forward pressure fighter with excellent boxing skills. He delivers knockouts and people like that. Why is that so hard to underdstand...I personally would rather watch a guy that can deliver a knockout over a guy that moves around the ring and potshots. It doesn't mean I don't appreciate their boxing skills or think they aren't talented. It's a matter of personal preference. My two favorite fighters are Duran and Hearns. So why would I rather watch a guy run around the ring. Take Lara for example. In his fight with Canelo he did well but there were stretches that he forgot that in order to win you have to punch your opponent not just move around the ring. That cost him the fight.

                      He doesn't need Pacquiao. He could've fought Brook, Thurman, Porter, Danny, Spence. Why feed off an old lion when you can go up and fight great fighter intheir prime. oscar did it, Hearns did it, Hagler did it, Manny Did It, Floyd did it, and many others. Why is he an exception to the rule. Hell, why is GGG an exception. You don't want to admit it but race plays a factor.
