I think he would've caught a few less times if he wasn't trying to adjust to south paw. At the same time as much as I wanted to see Lundy put to sleep, there part of me that feels a little dissatisfied with him catching Crawford the way he did and Crawford just walking through it because he was so much bigger at the weight. Don't get me wrong, I know lundy's not a huge puncher, but there was no sense of urgency, threat or change from Crawford after we saw him caught by probably some of the better shots since gamboa. Crawford was just trying out his south paw sea legs and playing seek and destroy. You get the feeling that this could have been over earlier if Crawford willed it so....
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
