    so whens it going to sink into peoples heads that its crawford who doesnt want to test himself against elite fighters. Is it really so hard to understand?

    And correct me if im wrong but is collazo not a haymon fighter? I thought crawford wasnt allowed to fight haymon fighters, that was the bull**** that was getting repeated like some buddhist mantra.

    Hes fighting the world number 32 and the world number 44 back to back and people are acting like hes desperate to fight the best if only evil bob would let him off the leash (who he decided to re-sign with and who has said he could get the spence fight done quickly).

    The guy is in a comfort zone earning money and is happy to fight this sort of slop. Hes probably laughing at you guys calling him the p4p king whilst hes fighting bum after bum. It would be funny but theres fighters who go out there, fight world class opposition and prove themselves like porter who get pushed to the side cause they dont have an 0. People have crawford above him in the division after beating a couple of no hopers who porter would also rip to shreds.

    What happened to actually proving something in real life rather than winning fights in peoples heads?

    And we all know its mean machine who hes fighting after this. Its the same old **** fight after fight 'oh who can he fight, they are all busy' well how about ****ing try and arrange a fight when a good opponent is free rather than wait for them to get tied up and say theres noone left to fight.
    Obviously it's because team Loma has extreme confidence in his ability and aren't afraid to match him tough. No talk big shyte and then avoid good fighters al a ggg, Crawford, and many others

          The only time Crawford will fight a Salido is if he has one leg...

            Yeah, I recall Loma saying he needed to work on his defense after the fight. I think he was trying to impress a little too much. Still, Loma did dominate the fight with ease to the point that Marriaga's people pulled him out. Let's not gloss it over too much. Haha.

              Very true. And in his second pro fight no less. Selective memories around here...

                Crawford is one of the best and pulled up on your boy Spence but the Collazo fight is disappointing. I think since Pacquiao is gone Top Rank is trying to fill the void. There are more PPV worthy fights they can make with Crawford.

                  He wants the best fights and won't let Arum match him with a bum.
                  The fighter always has the last say in who they fight and a fighter can demand fights.
                  It's that simple.

                      Who did Crawford ever duck or avoid? He completely cleaned out the 2 divisions he fought in and hasn't even been at 147 for a full year yet.

                      The only thing Crawford can be criticized for is resigning with Top Rank.
