    Top rank will soon have two 140 pound champs in Jose Ramirez and Alex Saucedo. I’m sure they will be moving up soon. I just hope it’s not Mike Alvarado.
    Crawford is 31 years old......

      Who you think he's fighting next?

      I think its a rough road to fight a non-TR guy. So its most likely going to be a TR guy. Could be some guy who's a low level PBC/Matchroom/random promotion guy, but I think another TR guy is still the favorite to get the call up.

        Crawford probably doesn't feel too bad when he's making $3M+ per fight against fighters he knows he can beat. He's likely the highest paid WW in the world, and he's the least challenged. He'd get marquee fights with Showtime and Al, but he'd also shorten his career from those fights and get paid less.

        I mean Danny Garcia and Porter got paid $1M each, it was a great fight but both fighters beat each other up... He's getting paid more than them to beat up Benavidez.
        I'm not talking about how happy he is. I'm asking who are his opponents going forward

          I see Frankie Gavin is fighting that guy that beat Bradley Skeete. Maybe him if he beats Gavin. Granados? Peterson? Lipinets?

              This is when Arum always seems to get a controversial decision that requires a rematch. Dangerous fight for Crawford. He betta not play around. Get that boy outta there ASAP.
              With Ponomarev getting beat in a tickover at 154, and Jeff Horn facing Anthony Mundine, the cupboard is basically empty, tbh; you may be right.

                Maybe not next but sometime in 2019 I bet Mike Alvarado gets the call

                There’s a reason He’s still kicking around on TR undercaRds

                  Crawford just turned 31 and Spence turns 29 in 3 months we get it. Crawford is about 2 years older than Spence. Neither has taken a beating in the ring. Crawford should have another 3-4 years of being close to his peak left.....

                      This may be a stretch, but Danny Garcia is now going to have a wait a long time before getting a rematch with either Thurman or Porter. If he wants a major title shot, Crawford would likely be the shortest path providing (a) he even wants that fight (b) Haymon and Arum can work together to get it made. This is a fight that can be made in early 2019 if everyone is on board. They can easily pack Barclays.
