    That was a great first title defense for Crawford.

    Benavidez really tested him at this new weight class.

    Bud's ready for the other 147 champs now. (Including Pac)

    I wonder if Crawford would stay in the Southpaw stance all night for Pac.

      Hmm. So he wasn’t ready before against a 40 yr old pac??

      I say that was not really an impressive performance from a pound for pound king who is tab as the best WW at the prime of his life.

        Hell no.

        You have to test the waters before fighting in your third division IMO.

        Crawford's ready for the big dogs now

          Benavidez shouldn't have been anywhere near a title shot lol.

            Benavidez needed like two more tune-ups and more therapy on his knee and maybe he would've put up a better performance. He landed some decent shots that caught Crawford's attention but wouldn't follow up.

                Yeah his last fight only went one round I think. He got some good rounds in tonight though.

                  He’s a pound for pound king. They’re expected to do great things at the prime of their lives at 31. Where was Floyd and Manny at 31? They can already retire at that point of their careers and still be considered bonafide ATGs.

                  You much have such low expectations if u think a pound for pound champ ain’t ready against a way past it 40 yr old fighter.

                    Yep no doubt he did way better than I thought he would. I still don't think he is very good. Crawford shouldn't of had as much trouble as he did with him.
