    Who deserves more respect for his accomplishments: Crawford vs Golovkin

    Crawford in my book. But I'm interested to see who's willing to discredit him and give GGG more praiseand the reasons why.

    Don't get me wrong, both are awesome fighters. But both were in equally hollow divisions, one spoke about unifying his division for years and the other man got the job done quickly.

    So who are you down with and why?

    both deserve respect, Crawford has more years to improve his resume and hes in his second division, Geegg demolished who was in front of him and is just now getting bigger names. they are both good... if ur a geegg fan the last thing u should do is sht on another fighters resume tho ....stop making lemiux this great win but say crawfords wins were against bums. just let things be. they both do what they are supposed to do with whos in front of them. move on

      If you like both fighters why are you trying to entrap people into making bad arguments?

        Liking both fighters doesn't mean I have to put up with the dumb ***** a fanbase spews. Nor do I have to walk on egg shells when i disagree with them

          crawford has a better resume by the eye test [the only test on the p4p list that matters,] he'd beat golovkin if they were the same size. he's a more complete fighter, has plenty of power, and he's much younger in boxing terms and has the intangibles that come with being a younger, fresher fighter.


          you can easily make the argument that crawford is the best boxer on the planet right now. you really can't make that argument about golovkin any more. he's without a doubt hit his peak. fighting 3-4 times a year made him a lot of money, but after 350 amateur fights, with your forehead used at times for defense, and when you're in your mid 30's it is not something you can sustain.

            Golovkin said it. I can't put a gun and force them to fight me.

              Crawford for moving up and being undisputed but Golovkin has a decent resume

                I think both of them and until one of you does better, STFU.

                    if danny garcia fought crawfords opposition he would be undefeated and we'd be talking about him as a superstar of the sport. any of the top welters would have smashed that jr welterweight line up to pieces, people like indongo wouldnt even be a top 20 welterweight. not directing this at OP, just some of the comment ive seen since the fight, some of you are so desperate for him to get praised, its pathetic, you should be more desperate for him to fight spence or thurman. its only 7 pounds for christ sake. and before you start whining about ggg, theres been no killers at 168 for a long long time, hes had nowhere to go. crawford got a loaded division 7 pounds from him and hes been scared to make the jump. can keep saying 'oh well indongo was top 2, molina top 3' hell if i got in training camp i might make top 10 in that division its that ****ing ****. and as for his lightweight acheivements? OH MY GOD HE BEAT RICKY BURNS!!!! WOW. how ****ing amazing, who hasnt beaten (or deserved to beat) ricky burns lol. broner looked like a million dollars when he was fighting in that garbage division a few years back. ive seen him in the ring with one guy who i would say had world level talent who was half the size of him, and he was getting lit up in the first few rounds. hes proving nothing by staying in the **** divisions and it shows, hes got no fanbase and noones talking about him, you dont have to be a hardcore fan to know his opposition is trash, indongo looked like he'd been swigging some rum in the dressing room, uncoordinated and swinging wildly, was 1/20 underdog for a reason. i said he was trash from round 1 against burns,looked like he was gonna fall over his feet at times in that fight. you tell me ggg's opposition is trash, you all love the eye test so much though, so lets do the eye test comparing indongo to someone like daniel jacobs.
