Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather Wouldn't Have Gone For KO Like Crawford

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

OMAHA, Nebraska What impressed Bob Arum most about Terence Crawford's performance Saturday night was that Crawford wasn't content to beat Jose Benavidez Jr. on points. An aggressive Crawford finished Benavidez late in the 12th round, even though the unbeaten WBO welterweight champion knew he was comfortably in front on the scorecards. Crawford cracked Benavidez with a right uppercut that sent Benavidez to the canvas with just under 50 seconds remaining in their 12-round, 147-pound championship match.

Do Floyd that fought at 130, 135, and 140 would have.

[Madison Boxing]

Mayweather in his prime wouldn't have fought someone outside the top 30 whod been shot in the knee

[The Big Dunn]

Mayweather at 147 would've won 12-0 and not gone for the KO. He'd also have made 20 times what Crawford just made for doing it.

It's funny because I was just thinking "Dude was like the 30th best fighter in the division. I dont recall Floyd fighting at that level at 31. Or any point after Hernandez really."

The comparables are just plain silly.

*Edit: Emmanuel Augustus might've been one comparable type of fight. Floyd was also like 23 when he fought him lol
