    Should Crawford Become The Next Henry Armstrong?

    I think Crawford should exercise his WBO champion's right and challenge Patrick Teixeira for his WBO 154 title.



    If Crawford wins he should keep both titles and be a simultaneous two weight class world champion like Hammerin' Hank prided himself on being.

      He dropped the belt. Hank didn't do that.

        Why not. Nobody at 154 is very good, Crawford can take Teixeira`s belt easily.

          Mayweather already did that

          Armstrong held three titles at once

            He held on to his second belt long enough to get 3 belts simultaneously

              Crawford should go for it since Spence didn’t want the work pre-car crash and still isn’t confident to tangle with Bud!

              Everyone at PBC who’s of a higher standard don’t want smoke with Bud, Porter exposed himself saying he don’t want to fight Crawford until he’s at the end of his career!

              Bud has no choice, either keep fighting little bro’s of champs, mean machines, sugar free ray Robinson’s, PBC’s C level fighters or move up and fight the best available at 154 or possibly 160!

                Henry Armstrong held undisputed world titles at featherweight,lightweight and welterweight at the same time. Nothing Crawford has done or ever will do comes even close to equaling that feat. There will probably never be a boxer who does what Armstrong did. Crawford holding two titles only 7 pounds apart is hardly the same thing.

                  I mean I think Sugar Ray Leonard has got Crawford beat already lmao. He won belts in two weight classes on the same night.
