Wlad's run after the Brewster loss to Fury was pretty good if you "forgive" a couple.
I think you'd have to give out mass pardons. Forgive? Nah. Not when half of them climbed the ring like lambs being led to the slaughterhouse.
Case in point. Ray "Rainman" Austin. Huge dude who proceeded to look for a comfy place to land ASAP.
If you didn't like Crawford's streak just say so. ;D

Haha, there were more than a few wholes in that run.
I do think Crawford's run is solid. Jean wasn't much tho.
What about Bradley's run: Vasquez, Witter, Cherry, Holt, Campbell (nc), L. Peterson, Abregu, Alexander, Casamayor, Pacquiao, Provodnikov, Marquez.

As I always say, Wlads run was against awful opposition.

If you do Pacquiao, you have to do Floyd.
De la Hoya, Hatton, Marquez, Mosley, Ortiz, Cotto, Guerrero, Canelo, Maidana x2, Pacquiao.
That’s pretty solid despite people claiming he was ducking people during that whole run
Re: Best current back to back streak:
Floyd's record is so strong, regardless of what the naysayers say, i'll give you another great run.
Emannuel Augustus, Diego Corrales, Carlos Hernandez, Jesus Chavez, Jose Luis Castillo*, Jose Luis Castillo
*he got "lucky" with the decision, could have gone Castillo's way, but that's the way she goes.
Re: Best current back to back streak:
Sergio Martinez: Pavlik, Williams, Dzinziruk, Barker, Macklin, Chavez Jr, Murray.

Blown up light welterweight in Hatton, blown up lightweight in Marquez, 14 month inactive Shane are not really that great on his CV.
Re: Best current back to back streak:
Dillian White is racking up a decent record considering the poor division
Chisora
Helenius
Brown
Parker
Obviously not as strong as others on the list but he is definitely trying to work his way through those outside of wilder and AJ and as I said the division isn't as strong as others, you can only beat what is in front of you.
Re: Best current back to back streak:
Well, if we're going back in time..... how about Bailey, Corley, Abdullaev, Torres. TBH, you could go through most of Cotto's career and just pick out the very few "soft spots" every now and then.
