Comments Thread For: Thurman: Spence is '2' at 147, Crawford is Barely a Champion!

This myth that Toprank does not work with other promoters has been debunked, I'm sorry to tell you. Funny how the P4P #1. has to chase those beneath him, how does that work?

Because his P4P ranking has nothing to do with his time at Welterweight! Even ESPN (Crawford's own network) has him #2 Welterweight behind Errol Spence Jr.!

He ain't lying. While Bud has passed the eye test he's done nothing at 147 besides beat the guy who many didn't think beat Manny to win the belt in the first place. Bud is #2 to Spence right now in my eyes & will be #3 once Thurman is back (assuming he looks like the Spence I last saw in the ring).

Hey Keith, if Crawford barely a champion, why not take him for your tune up LOL? IMO, your career over after a BUD Beating!

So you think a P4P ranking is irrelevant but then reference a welterweight ranking, implying that somehow a divisional ranking devalues Terence Craword by the opinions of renown ESPN 'experts' -- makes sense.

Bud just signed another contract with TR while knowing the current landscape (politics) of boxing. The people he says he wants to fight are PBC boxers, and he signed with TR. HE knew those fights wouldnt come too soon. He'll face lesser competition while at TR, build wealth, brand, and bank. Then he'll go the Mayweather, Spence, Garcia etc route.

The WBO has Egidijus Kavaliauskas ranked #2, and Jose Benavidez ranked # 14. ESPN has Egidijus Kavaliauskas ranked #8, and Jose Benavidez is not ranked at all. Egidijus Kavaliauskas and Jose Benavidez are both signed to Top Rank! Why is Crawford facing Benavidez instead of Egidijus Kavaliauskas?

His P4P ranking is irrelevant to his Welterweight rankings! That's why ESPN has him P4P #2, and WW #2! Shouldn't be too hard to comprehend! His P4P ranking is because of what he did @ 140 and below. It has absolutely nothing to do with his victory over Jeff Horn!

I rate them like this:

1. Thurman
2. Porter
3. Spence
4. Pacquiao
5. Garcia
6. Crawford

But Thurman must beat someone to prove he is what he is. I rate Porter higher than Spence because Garcia is better win than Brook coming from a big loss.

Almost the same but I just take Fanny Gift Farceia out of there.

Barely a champion? Coming from a dude that's barely a fighter right now? Cool, tell Haymon that you badly want that fight and I'm sure he will help get it done then.
