Here's a question, would Linares be the best win on Crawford's ledger had they crossed paths at 135?
If not, who's he's beaten that's proven to be a better fighter?

i agree to a certain point that...some people are driving people to hate him....watching the fight i didnt think tessitore was really giving linares full credit for the work he was doing
but i get it...they are pushing loma as the face of the espn boxing program
this isnt even about hating on loma or anything...i wouldnt really expect him to take this fight ...just curious what the overall opinion would be if crawford came out and said he would take this fight at 141

I would advise him to take no fight above 135. He is 30 years old so he isn't going to grow into a bigger man. His ideal fighting weight is probably 126. He had no problem making that weight not long ago and he was very strong at that weight. If he did fight Crawford at 141 I think he would get KOed. When two great fighters fight and one is much heavier naturally the heavier boxer will almost always win. Loma weighed 138 on fight night for Linares. If Crawford weighed in at 141 he would probably gain 15 pounds and weight about 156 on fight night. He has gained that much weight before. Loma would probably only weigh about 140 on fight night. Any heavier would just slow him down and hurt his stamina. You can't give up that kind of weight to a monster like Crawford and expect to win.

i mean...not going to happen right? i think loma/crawford 141 or charlo/crawford 155 actually have more of a chance than ward/floyd at 160 ever did
thats the point...why do lil g jizz guzzlers still point to that to this very day as an excuse? and then the other half of them say "ward went to lhw ...he couldnt make 168 anyway so he was just bluffing"?
