How would Crawford had done against Vernon Forest?

[Sheldon312]

Forrest by stoppage

Based on what?

Yeah - that was a strange post...

You newbs probably never even seen Spinks box Tyson’s ears off over 15.

Forrest by KO

Based on what?

Crawford was getting tagged by the jab from both washed up Brook and peg legged Jose Bumavidez. Crawford's defense is lacking to say the least. Crawford was dropped by Eurobum Mean Machine and put on ***** street by inactive and blown up Gamboa. I believe Crawford has a weak chin. I think he went and re-signed with Top Rankand ESPN exclusivity to duck the top guys because of his weak chin. Forrest dropped prime Mosley. Forrest was a big welterweight. Mayorga hits harder than Crawford imo and I would also pick Mayorga to stop Crawford. Crawford is vastly overrated and over hyped for his trash resume. He beats a washed up former champ and idiots say he's better than SRL. Until Crawford beats an elite welterweight he shouldn't be picked to beat or even mentioned with proven guys.

Who did Vernon beat?

Who did Vernon beat?

Prime Mosley, who was the only person at that point to convincingly beat prime Delahoya (most felt Trinidad should have lose to Delahoya, and the Whitaker and Quartey bouts could have gone either way)

Prime Mosely was also physically stronger than the version that almost killed Margarito and almost KO Floyd

Mosley wouldn't even be top 5 at 135, 140, and 147

Bro the Mosley Forrest beat would be a top 3 welterweight right now. Mosley was iron chinned and look at the way Forrest hurt and dropped him and outboxed him.

That alone is better than anything Crawford has done and suggesting otherwise would ridiculous. Crawford cant take those kind of shots man, this isnt Engis or Dulorme, Forrest was a bad boy

what do you mean he wouldn't?

he WAS top 5.

maybe you don't remember or didn't follow boxing back then, but he was the man at lightweight before jumping up to welterweight for the Delahoya fight.

then he became the man at welterweight as well.

he was considered pound for pound one of the best champions at the time along with Trinidad and Roy Jones.
