crawford is the 5th best ww right now...

[Chrismart]

Spence and Crawford are the best two WWs IMO.
They're the 2 I'd pick to come out on top if they all faced off.

who else does not rate Crawford in the top 2 at welter... ?

No impartial educated fan would not rate Crawford in the top two welters.(A double negative to trick the low IQ Manny fans).

Thank the heavens! Best post of the night.

Thank you sir!

To bad nobody, and mean nobody at PBC shares the same confidence these arm chair experts do.

These guys must not know what they are watching when they watch Bud fight.
He's definitely a throwback fighter from yesteryear with a mean streak.
These other Welters know what's up with Bud.

If only crawford didn't duck pac he would probably be the undisputed no. 1 ww IF he beat an old,past prime and part time boxer pac..

If a journeyman can knock down crawford then he should stay away from pac....

I agree, and I don’t know how anyone can get bent out of shape about a comment like that either. To call Crawford the 5th best is just trolling. I picked Manny to beat Thurman. I predicted Spence would be a tough close fight vs Porter. I’m not surprised he lost to Spence, but I’m not surprised he out preformed a lot of expectations. He’s a tough fight for anyone. Getting things wrong is often what keeps us intrigued in boxing. But anyone who says Bud should be #5 seems so biased that I’d love to see their honest track record.

Your love of the Pacman has blinded you to the qualities of other boxers and what actually happens in the ring with them. Anyone familiar with Crawford knows that sometimes he messes around and plays games with his opponents. The real thing to take away from that fight was Crawford's reaction to the 'knockdown'. He simply stopped messing around and proceeded to demolish his victim without any sign that he had been hurt. He just loves to fight and taking a hit or two is just part of that for him. He is a one off, a bit like Manny in that way.

On resume that is correct. H2H you can argue otherwise

Thurman is shot. He got devastated by Josesito Lopez. The PBC fan boys would ejaculate all over this message board if Crawford had a fight against Lopez that resembled that Lopez fight. Thurman was also completely outclassed by Pacquiao. We all know a Crawford-Pacquiao fight would be at the very least competitive.

Porter has lost every time he’s stepped up. He also got a gift against Ugas, who won 8 rounds of that fight. Porter is a gate keeper at welterweight.

If you think Spence and Pacquiao are better, I have no problem with that. But thinking Thurman and Porter are better is an absolute joke.

Porter is better than anybody Crawford has ever fought.

2 time world champ is clearly not a gatekeeper.

Spence barely beat Porter.
Crawford has never fought anybody top 5.

We don`t know yet if they are really the best.
