Better resume: Keith Thurman or Terence Crawford?

[IceTrayDaGang]

thurman hands down!! this aint even up for debate.

[IceTrayDaGang]

Only welter with a better resume than Thurman's is the only guys who beat him.

But Crawford beats Pac and Thurman.

yeah fighting lesser skill opponents will make someone think like that.

He won the lineal titles because he was #1 in those divisions fighting #2. He deserves credit for that.

Beltran and Postol weren't world-beaters but they're not slouches either.

Crawford's welterweight output has been extremely disappointing, no way around that, but I think his lightweight and super lightweight resumes are very good. Dulorme, Indongo, Ruiz, Gamboa, Beltran, Postol, Burns. Those are all quality Ws.

I do agree that Crawford pretty much cleaned out the best 135 lbers when he was there. And obviously he did unify all the belts at 140 which is a major accomplishment.

But how good were those names really? What have guys like Indongo or Ricky Burns or Felix Diaz gone on to accomplish since?

Thurman, beat garcia and porter. Not great losing to pacquiao at his age but was pretty close. Crawfords beaten no-one, having an 0 doesn't mean much cause thurman would have an 0 too against the opposition Crawfords fought.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Obviously Thurman. But I think Crawford beats Thurman.

[just the facts]

Thurman, beat garcia and porter. Not great losing to pacquiao at his age but was pretty close. Crawfords beaten no-one, having an 0 doesn't mean much cause thurman would have an 0 too against the opposition Crawfords fought.

Yet when your man crush (ggg) was in exactly the same situation, you had him p4p #1. I wonder what the difference between ggg and Crawford is? I'm certain I know what the difference in your mind is. Another black and white issue for you.

[ShoulderRoll]

Obviously Thurman. But I think Crawford beats Thurman.

I might favor him too but Thurman would be a very live underdog.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Sure. Thurman is still top 5 welterweight. Crawford never fought somebody like that. That is very different than fighting guys like Benavidez, Horn, Kavaliauskas.

Crawford's welterweight resume

Egidijus Kavaliauskas
Amir
Jose Benavidez Jr
Jeff Horn


That is ***ing embarassing.

[RuleOfTheSpear]

Thurman. That shouldn't even be a question.

And I'll take him over Crawford any day.

Thurman's hooks doesn't work so much against lil guys. But put in someone the same size as DSG, he'll pretty much whip any body in there.
