Comments Thread For: Crawford Drops Kavaliauskas Three Times, Stops Him in Nine

[SplitSecond]

Crawford is a beast. Just an awesome fighter.

Does anyone else think that if Crawford boxed more the fight might have been easier?

I've been watching Porter fight since Diaz. He is not a big puncher at all and has fought plenty of lesser comp he couldn't stop that others could. Granados is an example. Ive seen Broner drop Porter. I really think if they go to war Crawford hurts Porter to the head and body. Crawfords body punching is not like Spence's. Its sneaky and those are the ones that hurt. Spence leans on you wailing away at your body.

I'll give you that. Crawford hits his opponents with body shots they don't see that take their soul. His body punching may be the only underrated part of his game.

Yeah but it's like you guys don't get it. TC is what you call a versatile boxer. He's not going to fight Spence or Porter anything like he just did with EK..

exactly. i can't see porter beating crawford. can spence even fight again after his accident?

I don’t believe Bud would walk down or come straight forward all night against a 100% recovered Spence. Spence hits very hard to the body and head too. I can’t wait for that fight to happen. Bud was getting timed and hit all night but he got the win.

This fight further proves that Spence never stood a chance against Crawford. He could just as easily walk Spence down. Spence doesn’t hit as hard as Kavaliuaskas, but he does have better stamina, but he also can’t fight for sht while being pushed back.

I respectfully disagree. I think it's more the case that Crawford has always been a slow starter. Once he warmed up, he took over as a heatseaking pressure fighter.

Floyd always been a slow starter WTH are u talking about dude? Did u not see the fights with Judah, Oscar, Hatton, Maidana?

I'm not sure he could've have. Crawford looked really thick, and had a birthday that just passed. He may be just a little past his prime. I didn't see the same bounce to his step. He looked heavy and he moved heavy. I know it will get written off as "he chose to fight like that." Yea, but he didn't choose to not get out of the way of those right hands.

Crawford just got knocked down by this dude fool.


You see the fight?



Who's talking about Floyd kid?

And Muhammad Ali got knocked down by Henry Cooper. Shall we pretend he's no longer a legend in light of this fact?

Some of you guys have such silly metrics for what makes fighters great and what disqualifies them from such.

The thing about Spence is he had already admitted willfully that because he has to lose so much weight he can only performed at 70-80% of his ability at 147. He knows full well he can't beat Crawford at that level. He'd really have to ask to fight Crawford at a catch weight...

This Egis bum dude lost his last fight and was given a draw so Bob dug him up and said "this is the perfect tomato can for my bum killer". With that being said this bum scored a knock down against Crawford.

Crawford got dropped by a C level fighter...thats not a good look for him at all

A fighter that's number 1 P4P shouldn't be getting pieced up by someone the level of Kavaliauskas.

BWaHaahaHA!!
