    I like Bud and how he handles his business but there needs to be some scrutiny on these opponents. The quality is very similar to Danny Garcia's comp prior to Thurman and people called him a cherry picker (rod salka was unacceptable though) lol
    Danny actually has a better resume.

      An arrogant thug?

      That's code language, but trust me, we all got the message.

      You mean a successful African American champion.

      Confidence is part of the game, and Crawford is no different.

      I wonder if you feel the same way about Billy Joe, or Tyson Fury.

      Just STFU

        Crawford won't do numbers until he talks some ****. Just the way it is.

          Listen fam, don't say it too loudly or the trolls will swarm you lol

          They're acting like Crawford has knocked off a killer already when he hasn't.

            Crawford has the Benevidez fight, and the Ponomarev fight, before he's looking at fighting guys like Bradley Skeete, lol.

            Activity for activity may be something that you'd prefer; I'd just rather not watch **** matchups.

            Step into the ring for meaningful fights, or stay home, is how I look at it.

              It's funny because we all know the names in Bob's Top Rank chamber lol even took Ponomarev off the IBF rankings to avoid a Spence beating. But they don't see it though.

                Crawford is a finisher, he can be marketed.

                  You spoke the truth here. Crawford opponents are at best C list. Looks very protected. And he comes off as a thug so makes you wonder about his character.

And don't tell me 'they weren't the same after bud fought them'cause they sure as **** hadn't done much before that either.
                    Exactly. Every Crawford opponent has been C list at best and hasn't shown anything vs any top competition. Crawford might have the worst resume in boxing besides Deontay Wilder. That's pretty damn bad company.

                      Does Jermelle and Jermall have a better resume than Crawford?
