Crawford: "I gave myself a B-" (against Kavaliauskas)

[Combat Talk Radio]

Crawford is a disgrace! Protected hypejob who does not belong in the P4P discussions.

But you heard Terence. He beat Jeff Horn.

[Combat Talk Radio]

He's gonna get a lot of **** for that response and rightfully so.

Actually no, people like Robbie Barrett are still staunchly defending him and claiming it's a ploy by Haymon to protect Spence.

More like a C-. He went life and death with a tomato can.

Kavaliauskas has a solid Olympic and amateur pedigree. I wouldn't go so far as to call him a can. Significant underdog? Absolutely - and (unofficially) the first man to drop Terence Crawford.

I'm interested to see Bud mix it up with some better names soon...it is not easy to move up in weight as he has done, and will be interesting to see who the top man (or two) really is at 147...also at what weight Bud tops out at...he looks pretty solid physically at 147 right now which is a good sign.

Won't happen as long as people make excuses when he's put on the spot in an interview and basically he no longer wants 'da smoke'.

Fair enough...never saw the interview but hopefully he takes the Porter fight if it is there...would be a good litmus test for him and an inroad towards a bigger fight...I like your sig pic/story btw

Respect that. At least he's honest, he fought the wrong fight and made mistakes (his words) and owned up to it.

What I DON'T respect is his words that sound like he's DUCKING Shawn Porter. "...nothing on the table for me."

...

... "Your promoter, Bob Arum, says he wants to make a fight between you and Shawn Porter..."

BOB ARUM ON IF TERENCE CRAWFORD WILL FIGHT SHAWN PORTER "IF THEY WANNA FIGHT WELL GET IT DONE"...
