I've changed my mind about Terence Crawford, he SHOULD move up after all.

    I'd say the two of them are a level above everyone else around those weights!

      Idc. Size, athleticism, power, and strength matter. You make it seem as if Crawford is some Pernell or Floyd when it comes to defense. He is there to be hit and he will get stopped if/when he fights Spence

          I'm being realistic about what is actually likely to happen. The WBC/WBA/IBF champions and most of the top contenders at 147lbs are 1) over with Haymon and 2) have no incentive to bend to the whims of Bob Arum.

          By sticking at 140lbs with all of the belts, Top Rank becomes the flashpoint for every fight to be made, easing the process to actually make the fights.

          Outside of Mikey Garcia (who has basically mainlined a deal with Showtime), there's not a fight that can't be made, on terms that Top Rank wants, at 140lbs.

          Pacquiao can fight him at 140lbs, but keep to reality.

              If he can make 140 comfortably, Crawford doesn't have to move up. The problem is that 140 isn't really a strong division. Anyone that's elite like him could of done the same thing. If he moves up, he wouldn't be as dominant with the night and day difference in competition between 140 and 147.
