    I'd expect Taylor to have sporadic success and get good licks in on the way to eventually getting stopped late. If the likes of Horn is an indicator, Taylor wouldn't be able to smother and bully Crawford around as he is wont to do, and that would be a big factor.

      I'm not trying to use a triangle theory here but how did he look bad vs Postol? He absolutely dominated him and you do realise Taylor also fought Postol and looked a lot worse?

        wtf. Crawford literally toyed with Postol. He treated prime Postol like a sparring session.

          Why is this even a thread?
          Bud is much smarter operator and better killer instinct than Regis plus he’s faster an stronger!

          Taylor trying to do what he did to Regis to Bud wouldn’t fly as Bob would’ve made sure he had a ref in there that would penalize and warn Taylor if tried the dirty boxing then Bud would be putting a beating on him!

            No. Taylor is a top class fighter but I believe that Crawford is a special fighter and would be too good.

              This.


              Crawford has actually gotten BETTER as he's moved up in weight. On the one hand, I give him credit for actually fighting guys his own size. But he's also doing better.

              Taylor might not have Bud's offense. But like Pantera said, at 140 it would've been a 50-50 shot.

                Crawford is too damn good but Taylor is an exceptional fighter also.

                  Crawford would stop him. He beat a bigger Josh Taylor in Jeff Horn

                    Bud would outbox Taylor at 140 and stop him at 147. It wouldn’t even be a fight.

                      LOL Josh Taylor is better than Jeff Horn in every department. Like not even close.
