could see it if stevenson would fight ward. could see it if GGG wins and gets the BJS fight after. Also if a Parker v Wilder winner fought Joshua. It should be happening more, and sadly it isnt.Comment

Got a chance at Cruiserweight aswell, if whoever has the WBA Super fights the winner of the tournament.Comment

im sure if fighters really wanted to they would have done it, but its prize fighting most fighters will rather go get the money fight than to grab an accolade that in the end of the day means nothing. Just like when you look at a person resume you look at the version of a fighter the person fought not just the name, 20 years from now people are gonna be looking at crawford resume that lead him to this point and they gonna come to the conclusion that it isnt a glamorous one and that crawford was able to achieve by way of luck and chance and by luck and chance I mean if indongo was signed with al haymon you think crawford would have had this chance? Everything is relative to everything and you have to look at it from the bigger picture than just being fixated with a single notion. With that said a great accomplishment for crawford he gets to hang his hat with only a select few.
Crawford got his WBO from Ricky Burns.
Crawford got his WBC From Victor Postol.
Crawford got his Lineal Status cause Danny Garcia Vacated.
Crawford got The Ring Belt because Danny Garcia Vacated.
Indongo got his IBF from Troyanovsky.
Indongo got his WBA from Ricky Burns.
So basically Ricky Burns, Troyanovsky and Victor Postol were the gate keeper to this "undisputed" accolade that is so difficult to achieve in boxing. Amazing.
Not to hate (I know some are gonna take it as hate cause my mikey avy and sig) but Any top boxer could have achieved this if everything fell just right like it did for crawford. Great accolade to have doe, certainly raises his value imo. Heres to seeing the great fight Crawford has for us in the future (please no mike alvarado like arum said, crawford you gotta speak up on that one).Last edited by .!WAR MIKEY!.; 08-20-2017, 09:41 AM.Comment

Not even Klitschko did it despite dominating a weak heavyweight division for ten years.
Canelo would have a shot after he sons Lil G...I could see him crushing Billy Joe Saunders. But he is refusing to fight for the WBC belt so that's out the window.Comment

To me, that is more impressive than winning one title in 4 different weight classes. Crawford proved himself to be the best fighter in his own weight/size class, old school style!
I had to see this piece of boxing history being made live, so I stayed up late to watch the show - about 4am UK time when Crawford/Indongo kicked off - and I couldn't believe the atmosphere in the stadium for Crawfords fight. I could actually feel the hair prickling on the back of my neck when he was coming down through his fans to the ring!
You would have to go back to the 1990's to find the last time a US boxing crowd generated an atmosphere like that in a stadium!
Will we see more undisputed title fights? I would say yes. Hopefully at MW next. I just hope the excitement and buzz generated by Crawford's fans sends ripples through the sport and more fighters and promotors realise that this is the way to go.Last edited by kafkod; 08-20-2017, 09:35 AM.Comment
