    You all called Jacobs glass jawed **** fighter before he fought GG. I don't remember anyone saying that about Gamboa or Postol. And you post this?

    I don't have a problem with GG or Crawford being called the pfp number 2 behind Ward.

    I don't even see the comparison. And no Jacobs isn't better than anyone on Crawfords resume sorry.

      you can say saunders ducked him....but when other guys wait things out, because they are younger, its considered a duck....but of course when ggg ducked ward to wait it out for canelo is a "smart business decision" right?
      except that didnt happen. did you even read the details of wards offer? ward wanted to figth ggg at the same time ggg was schedled to fight for the wbc belt but disingenous people are trying to spin that into ggg waited for canelo instead of fighting ward which was simply not the case. ward wanted ggg to fight him instead of canelo and obviously ggg rejected that. if ward really wanted to fight ggg he would have made him an offer to fight right away but he didnt do that yet his fanboys never call him out over that blunder. wards team knew ggg would not choose ward over canelo/cotto so they tried to make it seem like ggg was ducking them but if you look at the details they knew he would reject that offer. it was a publicity stunt and it sadly worked for some low information fans who dont look into the details. look into the details and tell me how ggg ducked?

        You answered your own question. There's a difference between saying "I could do this" and "I will do this". It's like me saying to someone that I could bet £5000 on a fight, doesn't mean i'm gonna do it. But if I was putting it out in the media all the time that I was looking to do it and that I wanted to, they'd expect me to do it.

          True boxing fans know that GG didn't duck Ward, but your attempt at an answer to his post is utter bull****.

            its semantics, spence said he could ko him and outbox him, by saying that he obviously thinks hes capable of beating him or he wouldnt have made the statement, so lets see if he can. ward said he wants the joshua fight so lets see if hes true to his word. if gggs getting criticised for his statement then the other two should too.

                Or like when Sanchez said GG would fight anyone from 154-175.

Now, I must admit that it's usually GGG fans who do this but the black fight fans do it also. All i'm asking is why is Crawford ranked so high when there are other fighters who have similar if not better resumes. Same goes for GGG. I actually have Canelo neck and neck due to the fact that he has a slightly better resume.
                    NO I would say USA is far more OPEN to other fighters from different country coming to the USA and being Successful than any other country. While Americans, every country American fighter go to they get BOOED!

                    Americans can't go to Kazakstan, Russian, Ukraine and become Superstars. You honestly think the people in those countries would take an American as their own and help build him into a Superstar in their country....*** NO!

                    Americans deal with more corruption that anybody in the Amateurs which is the real reason for the lack of Medals and why a lot of the American Kids just turn pro as Teenagers instead of deal with the Corruption!

                    So they cry over what is posted on a Forum is Laughable honestly especially since a lot of these Foreign guys are getting promoted better than most of the Americans in AMERICAN so where is this "RACISM" you Speak?

                    Oh because some people give Ward and Crawford credit for their work and won't just bump them out the way so that your Beloved Eastern Europeans can be first.

                    The US vs THEM is in all of us! We're all Racially and Culturally Bias but I think some people have a issue with those who been most dominating in the sport the longest being bias because then it is a bit unfair it is basically a Head Start so yeah people like you don't like it because you're not able to claim who you want to claim as the GREATEST BOXERS EVER!

                    Crawford gets praised the same way others praise Loma and have him high despite the lack of a Resume. Their Ranks are PROJECTIONS based on their PURE TALENTS and how Writers/Reports THINK they will potentially do when they do get a chance to fight the best finally! Crawford has his critics too just like GGG Does!
