    Benevidez was literally fighting with one good knee, guy couldn't even move after the 6th. Yeah Crawford looked good but still waiting for that definitive victory for him to be P4P#1 that ESPN is shoving down our throats.

      Maybe it's because real boxing doesn't sell anymore. Just pre-fight drama.
      Great point. Very unfortunate, but very true.

          In the first half Benavidez was winning most, if not all the exchanges. Crawford had trouble dealing with the reach of Benavidez who wasn't moving much early

            It didn't seem planned to me. Benavidez wanted to **** it out in that round after posturing all fight. If he had tried to **** with Bud earlier, the fight would have ended earlier.

                Benavidez was game. His size was a challenge for Crawford until he got figured out. The fight change when Crawford didn't respect his power. Also, his showboating was ******, because he wasn't quick enough to make it effective.

                      In fairness this mfer been that. I was a big fan of him as an amateur & am a fan of him now, but he's been halfassing it & under performing for years. He ain't really turned up as tip top world class guy.

                      I bet he was more syked for this fight then any fight he's been in hence giving Bud some light competition early.
