Comments Thread For: Thurman to Crawford: Send The Contract, Let Me Post It On IG And Sign It Live

[RuleOfTheSpear]

Both Shawn Porter and Keith Thurman would be great fights for Crawford, the best of his career by far yet Bomac/Bob dismiss them like it’s nothing. The act is tired.

That would be good but I believe he has a mandatory against Castano next.

That's what I keep hearing but no movement on it this whole year. Crawford is the WBO 147 champion. The WBO would have no problem signing off on that fight. Shakur Stevenson just did the same thing moving to 130 as the 126 champ and bumped the mandatory out the way for a shot at the 130 title.

But , honestly, I believe other 154 champs would KO Crawford than. They are not big names, but too big for him.

Cool. So if the fight gets made I don't want to hear from you discrediting Teixeira as an opponent like Keith Thurman has done anything better in the last 4 years. Keith Thurman like Brook is just a name from yesteryear looking to cash out based on past glory. More recent but no different than Mike and Roy.

Did you read what I just wrote? I believe he beats Teixeira. But I don`t believe he beats other champs later.

Who would you say has a better chance of beating Crawford in your opinion. Thurman at 47 or Teixeira at 54?

Terence gon get pumped and dumped by Spence like Alvarez did to 3g lol

If close, ofc decisions will favor Spence the younger marketable Tyrone star

Terence scalp used to boost the young rising fighter’s profile

Taking long to fight real ones backfire. Happened to Brook. Happened to 3g

Yeah that's true, the steep increase in competition could backfire. I think that happened to Andre Dirrell. He got used to fighting bums after the Abraham fight. He picked up bad habits like standing flat footed and his hands low. Once he stepped up again, he got his ass whooped.

I mean if you look at it, Spence got the title and his big shot in May of 2017. Just a few months prior, Keith had defeated DSG. And his previous fight was against Porter. At no time during that stretch did a Spence fight make sense to him over the other two. Now, after Spence became a champ and ultimately improved his star power? Keith got hurt and was out for damn near two years before returning to fight Lopez in what was supposed to be a tune up. After that? He fights Pacquiao which NO ONE should ever blame for fighting over Spence.

Errol had been calling out Keef for like half a decade almost iirc. I think Errol was 15-0 or 16-0 when he first called him out. He's like 26-0 now. There were numerous points the fight coulda been made but Keef was trying to make it his cash out fight & never seemed to seriously consider it as best as I can tell.

When midget GRJ called Bud out, Bud was quick to IG Live in less than a day and laugh about that

Thurman called him out for days now and all i hear is crickets.

Errol calling Keith out in 2015 or 2016 means exactly what though? None of the champs were going to face Errol until he got a belt or a big fight. Errol had to force a title shot by becoming a mandatory. You think Brook would have faced him if Errol wasn't a mandatory?

Again, Thurman runs his mouth a lot and definitely had some suspect comments when pressed about Errol, but the only time this fight REALLY became a thing was after May 27, 2017. And of course, Thurman kept getting hurt after that and has only fought twice since then...One against the money man of the division in Pacquiao.

Crawford should carefully pick what's best for his career, he should only fight opponent that can preserved his undefeated record and that's what matter most. What will you gain if you fight tough opponent and beat you? I have to support crawford if he pick brook@147 as that would be a much safer fight to maintain his unblemished record.
