    Sad thing he will win another belt at 154 against a foreign top rank champ and then claim he’s a 4 division champ......HOF hahahahaha
    He is the worst undisputed champion of all time easily. Indongo weak ass getting two belts says it all

      I dont get why he gets so much hate
      He could use that 1 elite fighter to top up his resume but hes got some decent wins
      Khan, Gamboa, Postol, horn. Benavidez is a good fighter as well imo hes also got some decent wins in Burns and beltran

        This is an era where all you have to do is be in the right place, at the right time, fighting an overmatched opponent to get a belt. All of the belts he had at 140 were vacant not even 2 years before he went undisputed which says a lot.

        The masses label this man top 3 p4p and he doesn't have one elite name on his resume but idiots think it's okay just because he's "calling them out".

        People need to consider the fact that people say **** they don't mean all the time so "calling an opponent out" means absolutely nothing if you don't end up fighting them. The next generation will follow in his footsteps.

        Terence Crawford created the perfect blueprint for boxers to rob fans out of their money while pretending you're doing the best you can do.
        Problems with boxing are systemic, man, the sport's waaay bigger than any single boxer and the fighters didn't make up the rules or start any network or promotional beefs. Can't expect anything from the fighters except to take what seems to be the best financial and career options at the time and we honestly don't usually have the information to be second guessing 'em anyway.

          Yes. The "Protect The 0 No Matter What" became the blueprint for a generation of fighters.

            Dude, Terence Crawford is top 3 P4P on virtually every list

            Jermain Taylor was undisputed too.

              Tbh it was Floyd... But in his defense he paid the cost to be the boss. Dude was a HOFer and P4P almost a decade b4 he had his first big check.

              Maybe blame Broner... He made it okay to lose every fight and still skip the line

                Blame Bob Arum. He's paying Crawford a lot of money to fight lesser fighters.

                Then on top of that there is his marination strategy, his in-house fights strategy, his pay off the WBO strategy, etc.

                Arum has single handedly done more to ruin boxing than any other person.

                  So basically, he's pricing himself out of fights he COULD have. Meaning there IS something he could do - which is accept his place as the B-Side and accept lower money for legacy. He's refusing. On record.

                  He's widening the very street he says doesn't exist.

                  This could be any of the promoters in all honesty
                  Same chit going on with big Al and PBC
                  Eddie’s doing the same thing to keep the WBO heavyweight belt in the Matchroom grasp

                  It’s actually what has become of boxing
                  One is not better than the other , they all have the same playbook

                    You say one is not better than the other yet I know who has consistently given us good matchups and good fights in recent years.

                    It sure as heck has not been Top Rank.
