    This and I am a huge crawford fan, Not saying he fights have all been easy by any means but hes not faced a true elite fighter yet and that also doesn't mean i don't think he beats a true elite fighter either.

      Who will you rank higher between Crawford and the Canelo/Golovkin winner?

        Canelo/GGG winner for sure, Now if Crawford was to move up and beat Thurman, That would put him right up there at the top undeniably. Thurman/spence is a super fight, like canelo GGG. Every fighter needs that super fight. lomachenko's would be garcia/rigo no matter how good they look, they all need one of these fights.

          Beautiful post. I agree. There's a reason why he never fights outside of Detroit or Baltimore or wherever the hell hes from.

          DLH and Floyd would sell out anywhere they landed. Big money, huge audience, etc. Dud doesn't even sell out his home town. Nothing special about him.

              TC crushed Indongo last night, for sure.

              He appears to have a bright future. Its too bad the 140 division isn't looking too good these days .... That would have made what TC did much more impressive.

                  Pacquiao/Floyd Mayweather had a carefully crafted career at 147.
                  Crawford seems to want to fight the best. Mayweather brags about having the money while taking the least amount of risk. That's good for your pockets, but he also gets mad when people find holes in his legacy. Pacquiao fighting dudes off losses and 145 catch weights, and basically built a career off floyds name.
                  Can't eat your cake, and have it too. One thing about me, I don't care how much I like/love a fighter. I call a spade a spade.

                    I'm sure you know what "crushed" looks like, since that's what I did to you in the thunderdome. What was the final score? 4-0??? Had you on your knees begging for a draw too, didn't I? Remember this:

                    You want to call this a draw or whatever the right word is?

                    I think its never too late.

                      I like Crawford, and I think he is an excellent fighter. Not to take anything away from him, but he had an easy path to unification. Part of that is him making it look easy, but part of it is that he didn't have to walk through fire to unify the titles. I still feel he is untested, and a move to 147 will determine what he is made of and put him to the test. I just wonder if Haymon is willing to feed any of his top fighters to Crawford at 147. I believe Thurman, Spence, Porter would all be willing to fight him, but will Uncle Al allow it? Right now I don't see either of the Garcias, Mikey or Danny, in a big hurry to fight him and I think he can beat both of them.
