Benavidez is one of the worst opponents in recent years....

    Crawford is a 25 to 1 betting favorite. I don't view a 25 to 1 favorite as a particularly compelling fight.
    Who else does Arum have for Crawford besides Pac then?

      Let's wait until after the fight to make this type of statement.

      JBJr. will give Crawford a great fight much more than everyone anticipates.
      (Benavidez sucks because of the Herrera fight right???)

        I think for the most part this place thinks basically all fighters apart from their favorites (and guys their favorite defeated) suck really bad and their favorites and the guys they defeated are gods.

        An off-night and heaven forbid a loss is a death sentence to most here.

        I think Benavidez will give it a good effort but he'll be outgunned. I hope for a competitive fight but I don't anticipate it. I think he'd compete well with Porter and Garcia but I think Crawford is a special, special fighter and he's always focused and on his game.

          Arum doesn't have Pacquiao anymore. Pacquiao is close to signing with Haymon.

          Arum doesn't have anybody interesting for Crawford to fight.

            Anybody not named Porter, Danny or Spence would be a mismatch vs Crawford at 147. he's that good. but this fight at least has a history of bad blood. I'm looking forward to it.

                Egidijus Kavaliauskas

                He's most likely Crawford's next opponent

                  ive told you already, pick and choose anyone in the top 20. i dont think youve got your head around how low level this guy is. hes jumping up from fighting someone who wasnt even top 300 to fighting crawford. but hey hes still got his 0 i guess?

                    yeah saw a few crawford fans hyping him up at one point but thats a pretty hard sell after how he looked in his last fight

                      i hope he does but i wouldnt be shocked if its over within 3 rounds and then people will go crazy as they always do when a fighter blasts out a C level guy in good fashion
