    Promotion and network issues weren't valid excuses for others and Crawford gets no pass on that. He needs to fight the top welterweights or stfu about being the king of the block. He has a **** resume filled with mostly bums. He will continue fighting guys like Benevidez unless people speak out about his **** fights and resume filled with dog ****. Why do you want him to cherry pick a small Lomachencko that Salido beat? Why do you want him to fight a washed up old Pacquiao? Why not a top welterweight?

      When you go around saying you are the best guy at welterweight and p4p the best, a guy like Benevidez is a bum!

I've heard ******s saying it's a good fight but I beg to differ. A top p4p fighter should be fighting the best guys at his weight class and not just stablemates and bums. When will people call this guy out on his **** resume and continued fighting of bums?
        Horn was bigger than him has a reputation as a dirty fighter and had a high profile by virtue of his win?? over Pac. That was the perfect fight for Horn to showcase his skills, raise his profile and make some good coin. He'd be a fool not to fight Horn.

          If that's the case the only fighter I don't consider a bum for Crawford is Errol Spence. He beats all the rest at this moment easily.

            147 is loaded with guys he will never fight. They'll blame it on networks and promoters I'm sure. He's gonna have to hope someone ends up his mandatory or better yet he could do what GGG did and get himself a mandatory spot against Thurman or Spence or whomever is holding the belts after the Haymon side fights each other
            Hard to get a mandatory if someone is already a belt holder

                  He could've just cherry picked the weakest champs, drained them with catchweights and rehydration clauses, and used performance enhancing drugs like Pacquiao did. Then duck the biggest $ fight in history over testing that both would be doing. Scared of needles but has numerous tattoos. And the host of excuses to duck the L he later got anyway. Funny how **** Pacquiao looked after being questioned about PEDs compared to before.

                    Pretty pathetic when people are such nutthuggers of fighters they hate certain promoters so much they hate all their fighters.

                    The state of boxing fans these days.

                      I think he is the 2nd best welterweight in the world next to Spence. He can only fight the guys he is offered for him to fight. He is under contract to fight for Arum on ESPN. Has he turned down any fights because he thought the guy was too good for him?
