Comments Thread For: Crawford: We'll See How Good Benavidez is Come Fight Night

[Fists_of_Fury]

And your favorite fighter is...?

My avy should give it away.

You can't fight who's not there. As was previously mentioned, Crawford cleaned out LW and JWW before he moved up to WW. He has exceptional skills and arguably the highest boxing IQ in the game. He moved up to WW to take over. Give him a chance and he will be in with the best soon enough.
There's a reason the vast majority of respected and successful boxers and trainers have Bud at #1 or #2 P4P and I would think they know more about boxing than a random fan on a boxing forum.

You're pretty much agreeing with me. Great talent but a subpar resume, and I'm not blaming the guy here. He cleaned out two crap divisions, big difference from cleaning out a weight class full of killers. He's a in killer division right now but he won't do much due to politics.

Danny Garcia for example, cleaned out a much better 140 yet he hardly gets praised on here.

lol easy to seem like you have the "highest boxing IQ" when you're showcasing it against the likes of Lundy, Horn, and tiny Gamboa (who still rocked him). Be a bit more critical man.

Cant call a resume "crap" if they never ducked anyone. Could claim they're untested, but cant be crap if you've fought everyone available

Spence and GGG have worse resumes tbh

lol Brook and Jacobs are better single wins than anything on Crawford's resume.

C'mon man, maybe Spence but GGG's resume craps all over Bud's and I'm not even a Golovkin fan.

Stop making stuff up dude. First off, Gamboa never fought Indongo, Prograis did and even though the guy is a beast, Indongo was damaged goods after getting demolished by Crawford. Secondly, Postal lost to Josh Taylor who is way past prospect! He is top 3 at super lightweight easily. It's amazing the amount of ****e people talk on here.

Come on, imdongo hadn't beaten anyone great himself. These aren't world class fighters. I don't know why I put gamboa. This is a p4p level fighter supposedly we are talking about, people like indongo , benavidez aren't good enough opponents. If u add up all of his opponents combined they don't have a world class win between them. He's 31 years old now and u guys treat him like a prospect, he's wasting his prime years!!!!!

I can understand your point and I agree he hasn't had that pivotal fight yet that will define his career and cement his legacy, I just think it's wrong for people to bash him when he fought and beat whoever was around at LW and JWW, became the undisputed, unified champ and is now campaigning at WW. If Bud doesn't get the fights with the best in the business at WW, taking shots at him is justified. I just think it's only a matter of time before he's in with the best. He's known only winning and becoming the man at the top. I'd be very surprised if that changed now although Spence is a very legit threat to his ascension to the throne.
Thanks for showing some class with your rational response. Usually when I voice my opinion here which may be in contrast to a previous post, I get personal threats and childish insults.

And Danny's fought all A+ level competition in his career though right? Get real dude.
Crawford would fight Danny Garcia any time, any place. It's Garcia that isn't too keen on that fight. Even Angel gets nervous when talking about Bud.

There was not one fact in your statement at all. Just opinion. Danny Garcia resume is above average and its better than Terence. Go ahead and say it isn't.

Are you seriously saying Bradley didn't fight anybody?
GTFOH.

He didn't fight Khan at 140, didn't fight Garcia, porter , broner, Mayweather, mosley, Thurman, brook, Rois, Alvarado, Cotto , Lucas, Guerrero, Maidana , Berto. Him being with Bob he missed a lot of big name fights. He went to welterweight in 2009. Besides losing to Manny, his big name fights were Kendall Holt (trash ,) Ruslan who is C list, a old Marquez, faded Rois, Jessie Vargas (b fighter) and a draw with Chaves. Casamayor was old but I will give him that good KO.
