    Crawford is underappreciated

    The guy got power, speed, skills, heart and stamina, no apparent weaknesses and he beats undefeated dangerous opponents (Gamboa, Postol, Indongo) while remaining completely superior in the proces. Honestly, I don't understand why people are so high on Golovkin, Canelo and Kovalev when we have fighters like Crawford and Ward around, who are on a completely different level. It's simply much more entertaining to see boxing at a high level, IMO, rather than those primitive sluggers...

    Crawford is damn good in my book. He has fought and defeated everyone he should have fought and beat them all easily. He completely dominated and unified 140. He is my 3rd best pfp boxer and I could easily see him being number 1 pound for pound. As he moves to the tough 147 pound weight class I think he can beat everyone except Spence who I think is also great.

      I can understands people that may have issue with Ward, he is a very polarizing guy but I really an't understand the put downs for Crawford or the under appreciation for his command of the ring and how basic he makes skilled fighters seem.

          Gamboa, Postol, Indongo)

          HIs problem is that those are his best wins. Gamboa is not that good, we know that now.

          POSTOL IS HIS BEST WIN--He needs to fight a big name

            felix diaz is a great win too imo, that guy was an olympic gold medalist and got robbed vs peterson, he should've been unbeaten by the time they fought. people just belitle him because of his height and lack of power

              Who exactly is under-appreciating Crawford???? Nearly everyone agrees he’s a P4P top 5 fighter.
              If you think the likes of GGG, Kovalev and especially Canelo are “primitive sluggers” you know NOTHING about boxing

                Agreed, he needs that standout win to prove how great we suspect he is.

                  i think those that knock crawford know deep down hes the goods.....crawfords name is sullied on boxing forums because of the cold war between the white supremacists and the black males

                  lets hope crawford truly gets the chance to prove himself at 147...he will def earn respect if he can do that

                    He is unappreciated but it's because of who he's been fighting lately. After Postol, he's had no compelling fights.
