    I was watching the Canelo vs Lara and William vs Lara fights. And i've noticed that him and Crawford are very similar. Both are great southpaws(even though Crawford can fight Orthodox) both have stellar footwork even though Lara has the better defense and power.

      Lara is more of an outside fighter. He likes more space in between.

            I think Lara is a natural counter puncher who engages VERY selectively. Crawford is not averse to exchanges and his overall mind set is comfortably more offensive than Lara's.

              Crawford is far more versatile. Watch some more of his fights. He adjust to his opponent where Lara literally fights the same exact fight (off the back foot) every time.

                    Crawford is a better offensive fighter than Lara.
