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.
    Aside from Vernon Forrest and a faded Fernando Vargas, every other top guy defeated Mayorga convincingly. Mayorga was actually the go-to guy for elites to look good against. If Cory Spinks could outbox him then I have to believe Bud would do the same.

        He's too vicious and accurate with his shots.

        He's got power in both hands and is too much for Vernon I think to handle.
        He really is underrated if anything imo. Just a great talent

          now that i think about it, would be a great fight.

          like Brook, Forrest had a good jab and right hand 1-2 combo.

          but Forrest was also a good inside fighter, better than brook on the inside anyway.

          hard to say who would win though.

            reckon we see a close but clear decision for Bud. Bud makes adjustments mid-fight that his opponents can't neutralise.

              Right. Someone needs to punch that guy....

                Put the crack pipe down its obviously ****ing up your brain cells. Mosley would beat porter,Danny, Thurman TC N ES is a little harder to call but I'd favor prime Mosley over both of them also

                  Forrest is one of those fighters that I wished that he had fought ODLH and Trinidad.

                  Those fights that he lost to Mayorga took all his momentum away. Also he had too much of a close fight agains Quartey.

                  It is hard to call this one because styles makes fights.
