Who deserves more respect for his accomplishments: Crawford vs Golovkin

[-MEGA-]

I'd say the one who has actually accomplished more deserves more respect.


Crawford

[Chrismart]

Crawford won titles if TWO divisions

GG only one

2 > 1

Plus

Crawford is 6 years younger.

Ricky Burns won titles in THREE. Broner in FOUR.

Burns and Broner > Crawford and GGG.

Plus

Broner is the youngest. = Broner is TBE.

[al-Xander]

I don't really care. Both are active fighters. I'd rather shift my dislike over fighters acting like guests who only fight whenever they feel like it or need money.

[-PBP-]

Crawford is clearly the more accomplished pro fighter.

[DreamerUSA]

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 are amazing fighters who deserve respect. Both have accomplished a lot in the ring. As far as overall body of work, I think their resumes are a wash, though I would give TC the best win in Gamboa. Really the one thing that is going to seperate the two for me is TC becoming undisputed. That is absolutely huge imo. Don't really care what people think of the division or the reasons why GGG could'nt get that fourth strap. Fact is TC did it.

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.

There is no way of proving that which makes it a meaningless statement. Garcia avoided Postol and doesn't get a "he could have beaten him" pass for it.

1. I don't agree Gamboa is better especially looking at his last two fights.

2. I don't agree with Postol being better than Lemieux, they're about what and what. Jacobs is clearly better.

3. Indongo is trash and I said it before the fight was announced and the worse champion either of the two has fought. Guy couldn't box

It's going to be hard for Golovkin to fight a unified champion seeing that he has 3/4 belts.

Both Golovkin and Crawford are world class fighters.

Ignorance. Lemieux was knocked out by Marco Antonio Rubio lol. But I guess your head was in Golovkin's ass at the time.

[Redd Foxx]

Crawford's done more, but I don't think we should overlook that Golovkin has been pretty consistent for a long time. The guy is either being overhyped or completely panned for some reason.

[Nay_Sayer]

Golovkin has the superior resume.

Not hardly..

[Nay_Sayer]

Crawford hasn't beaten anyone as good as Jacobs.

The same argument can be made against Bumlovkin.

Lol..
