    I haven’t really seen him perform at an elite level against top competition. And no, Jeff Horn doesn’t count

      Well, when he whoops the dog mess outta Horn, it'll be just another win that someone has to discredit.

        Mosley isn't a 90s welterweight. He spent most of the 90s at lw. But I get the point. I'd have to see him perform at ww first before I can say he'd beat those guys. Oscar wasn't really all that great at ww either. Actually he wasn't great at all. Gifts against Quartey and Whitaker and a beating a washed up Chavez at 147 again doesn't help his case. The big fight he actually should have won was against Trinidad but they took that from him. Then Mosley outslugged him in 2000.

          I believe he is. Horn will make crawford run all night and the judges will give him a gift decision.

              Horn getting stopped to the body just like John Molina who also had a size advantage over Crawford.

                Oscar beat Trinidad convincingly and Mosley in the second fight. Crawford has not beaten anyone to be favored over at atg lightweights or welterweights.

                  No. Only Loma and GG fanatics think so.

                    TC is a good boxer, but he has flaws, we have yet to see him fighting a boxer above c level.

                    I think Khan beats him
