    Yeah, looks like he was having some gas.

        I don’t think 5’8” 180 is big at all. It’s actually below average in the US.

        If you mean big for a WW, I agree that is big (the weight). But the height, 5’8”, is perfect for 147. Actually he’d be quite short at 154.

          That is what happens when you cherrypick.

            Yeah, they're in the bubble. Everybody has to be tested.

              I mean why would I compare Crawford to the average American man? Lol, I'm just saying he gets up there in weight in between fights. I remember a picture he took with Floyd at a Knicks game a few years back and he looked fairly bigger than him. He may have just gotten to WW or was still a 140 pounder.

                    Floyd was a relatively small WW. It’s not hard for another WW to be bigger than him. Floyd didn’t come in the ring heavier than 150. He was a true WW in the sense that if boxing went back to same night weigh ins, he’d be fine at 147 while these other “WW’s” would likely need to fight at 160.

                    If you compare Crawford to regular sized WW’s like Spence, DSG, Porter, Thurman, they’re likely all similar in size inside the ring (height and fight night weight). Many WW’s, probably most except Juan Manuel Marquez, were/are bigger than Mayweather and Pacquiao.

                      Mayweather by the end of his career filled into a solid sized WW. Is he as big as guys like Brook and Spence? No, but he was a good sized WW.

                      Brook kept saying Crawford is a guy started at LW, and while true, he is far from a small sized WW. Crawford has legit size and will be close to or even a bit more than 160 tonight.

                      He's not cutting weight easy and struggles like most of the guys you mentioned to make 147.
