    I've been saying for awhile he's a lesser talented SRL but the Floyd disrespect by Arum is immaculate.

      So we're just going to skip right over guys like Oscar, Trinidad and mayweather based on wins vs Jeff horn and benavidez? Lol ok

        It is feasible for him to be the best WW of the past 35 years regardless of his resume (or with any resume really). That being written he is not the best WW since SRL.

          I wouldn’t rate him above many welterweights of recent years, Quartey, Curry, Starling, Brown, McCrory just a few. A lot of very good fighters since SRL that I’d favour over anyone fighting at 147 today.

            Obviously a bit of hyperbole on Arums part which is his job and while Being maybe the best WW of his generation beating the likes of Horn , Benavidez and even Khan at this point in his career doesn’t even prove he’s the best WW right now

            Not when Thurman has wins over prime Porter / Garcia and Spence went to enemy territory and broke Brooks face

                I like Crawford but he beat Horn and Benavidez as a WW.

                How the heck does that make him comparable to SRL?

                  No, it’s not feasible by any stretch.

I know Arum is hyping his fighter, but a ridiculous statement, considering we've had Sweet Pea, de la Hoya, Mosely, Mayweather, and Pac all who were better welterweights over the past 25 yrs
                    I agree with you.

                      That’s Bob wearing his promoter hat. I can’t see Bud beating prime Oscar, Tito, Whitaker, McGirt, PAC, Mosley, or even Bradley. I’m not even sure he beats a 147 version of Camacho.
