    Default I never thought...

    ... We would see someone better than Floyd Mayweather's record and reputation. But, I said it before and will say it again. Terence "Bud" Crawford is BETTER than Floyd Mayweather. But not by much... All respect to Money Mayweather.

    Do you think Crawford has a chance against David Benavidez? lololol... That may be a bit much for Crawford, I believe?! What do you think?

    I think Crawford should call it quits.

    He has proved himself to be an ATG without question.

    He shouldn't be going anywhere near Benavidez.

    Crawford may have the ring IQ and skills to match up with Benavidez, but you can be rest assured that David isn't going to be one dimensional, telegraphing his punches and relying on single power shots.

    He's young, he's big, he's powerful and he's dangerous.

    Yea. BoMac said no to Benavidez too. lolol... I don't blame him. Benavidez mayswell continue to camp out at LH and fight Bivol or Beterbiev now. it's his only options.

    I feel the only fight out there for Crawford would be a Canelo rematch where he would command a much bigger purse slice. (If both parties even wanted the fight) nothing else makes sense. It’s that or retire in my opinion.

    So glad Crawford beat Canelo.

    Bud record is very unappreciated and he has always had to chase the big fights without being able to command the huge purses to get them made.

    Crawford said he will not go up in weight to light heavyweight and will not go down to light middleweight to face Ennis.

    P4P Crawford has a better record than Floyd now.

    I would say go down to 160, which Bud himself has mentioned. But his age is certainly a factor that works against him. Also, after having beaten Canelo... maybe retirement isn't such a bad thing.
    I'd love to see him in the ring again, though.

    What if GGG were to come back to face Crawford at 160lbs? Could that even be wildly possible? lol... Who could coax GGG out of retirement for that?

    There is no undisputed middleweight champion for Crawford to challenge.

    The most dangerous challenge is the unified champion Janibek Alimkhanuly. I do not think the other champs Carlos Adames or Erislandy Lara hold much attraction for Bud.

    Golovkin is long since retired after losing to Canelo and would not be of no interest for Crawford.

    The most money would be a rematch against Alvarez.

    I’ve spent these days thinking about May 2018, Vasyl Lomachenko passing Crawford on P4P lists after beating Linares. Crawford was a 3 division champion at the time, he had become undisputed at 140 along the way. There was no good reason to put Vasyl above Crawford. Loma great as he was didn’t beat the best guys at 126, 130 OR 135. And he easily could have fought Berchelt at 130, Berchelt was begging for it or Mikey at 135, also begging for it.

    Even though Crawford was the more accomplished man at the time it was absolutely impossible to get people to give Crawford his due. “He….” Always something, always.

    He beat ass. He was a great fighter. And now and forever all those that refused to give him his due have to STFU when it comes to Crawford and I absolutely love it.And I hope some take a moment to personally reflect about why they always had a reason to tear down this great fighter
