Thing is if he fights Spence/Thurman and loses people will look back on his record and think wtf was I hyping. If you add up his whole resume there's barely a good win between any of the guys he's beat. Diaz, imdongo, postol.would be absolute cannon fodder at 147. People were saying imdongo was a.great win and look at what prograis did to him, that's the level his opposition has been at. Could be bull**** but I've seen interviews of people behind the scenes in the gym saying he's not what he's cracked up to be either
        Not from what I've seen and heard. Quite the contrary in fact. It's clear to see in the ring too how good he is. What glaring weaknesses have you been seeing in his game?

        I think Danny Garcia is good and I like him a lot but you used him as a reference. He clearly avoided Postol and probably didn't deserve the nod vs. Peterson and definately didn't vs. Herrera. Peterson got a gift decision over Diaz and Herrera got a bit of a hometown nod over Lundy around the exact same time Crawford did what exactly to? Smashed them to pieces. Now I know styles make fights but I do think when there's multiple examples it supports a case somewhat more.

        Crawford would have handled Garcia's opposition and still be unbeaten and wouldn't have had 2-3 close calls, struggled with an old Judah and have a fairly close fight with Mattheyse.

            weaknesses dont appear until you throw someone in with a world class opponent though. im not saying hes gonna get exposed as some bum but people are calling him p4p number 1 and hes literally fought noone. postol struggled to some bum in his next fight, diaz got beat by some nobody and indongo got sparked out by a prospect. the only way we'll find out how good he is is at 147 against world level opposition, cause as far as im concerned all hes shown is hes good at beating B/C level fighters

              Diaz only has two losses. A robbery against Lamont Peterson and the Crawford loss.

              Postol may not be the same because sometimes a guy loses a certain way and he's not the same again. Felix Trinidad used to do it to guys. He'd wreck a good fighter and then that guy who struggle or lose shortly after.

                  Ah. Didn't realize. Well he did take a frightful beating from Crawford. He showed in the Peterson fight how capable he could be.

                    Yet when your love interest was beating up B/C level fighters, you were on here proclaiming him as P4P #1, hofer and an atg. I wonder if lil g being Caucasian and Crawford being black has anything to do with your opinion? Just a crazy thought running through my head.......
