Crawford is BETTER than Mayweather.

[SlimTrae]

Crawford is a brilliant fighter but when he's beaten the same calibre of fighter as Floyd has, only then can we begin to compare them.
Floyd win record wipes the floor with Crawford's.

Castillo- YUP! Never cried like other fighters of his injuries, so he quietly/quickly took the rematch and proved his hands was muffed up.
Corrales- 5'10 1/2 33-0 vs 5'8 24-0- Diego riding on a KO streak....got dropped over n over n over...
Gatti- Never seen a more accurate pot shot job -since RJJ Paz.
Judah- Last time Zab looked quick- as PBF knew...whether it -adjust and outscore
De la Hoya- Didnt fight him like Pac did...took Oscar at the weight oscar wanted.
Pacquiao- Great name, we all know way too late
Hatton- 1st to stop him.
Mosely- Amazing display of adjustment and IQ
Cotto- Didnt run, stayed in the pocket, weather the storm
Canelo- How many guys get to fight 40+ and still be called green, what a joke, Floyd showed his IQ level again
Maidana- PBF took some hellatious skull shots, even a few rabbit punches- showed part II was anothe display of Ring IQ
Marquez- Never ever seen a P4P fighter reduced like JMM. Floyd gained more weight yet didnt fight a bully fight, still outboxed his foe- too easily
Ortiz- Ortiz didnt want no moe!!!

Just to name a few 😉

I guess those under age 35- never really saw how offensive Floyd was. He did what all ATG's do; fight hard & offensive in their youth & prime. Post prime stop fighting intuitively, rather depending on experience- remember what styles they employed with certain styles to win with knowledge as opposed to winning with physical skills alone. Each time he fought a taller fighter, he was never given the credit as the small guy- but I understand- it was his big mouth LOL!

He’s not better than the Pretty boy version.

The Money Mayweather version is debatable.

Yeah, I remember after Corley lost a decision to Zab, Floyd moved UP and then went toe to toe- just beat that dude's butt round after round. His 1st title shot, Hernandez cut that ring off & forced Floyd to fight, no running, just adjusted and stopped a man who lost only once before.

As with guys like Azumah Nelson whose style waas aggressive, later became known as the Professor...to Bernard Hopkins who was 1st called The Terror fought with no holding clinching- then came RJJ, he adapted, and later in his years became more defensive minded, so, too did Floyd.

I also think that is why JMM was WAY MORE successful his later years then that of MAB or Morales- he mastered countering which IMO preserved his career. So Floyd's safety 1st style- we over the age of 35-40...remember When he changed/incorporated into his game a full fledged arsenal of offensive and defensive skills.


Crawford is in NO way comparable other than who was offered to both (under Arum).

Floyd's career 1st half was NO DIFFERENT than Bud's. No different than Pac- with Arum.
Floyd would make the GREATEST BUSINESS DECISION IN THE HISTORY OF SPORTS- He bought out his contract. Arum knew $750,000 wasn't a lot, but he knew based on what he had paid Floyd, he would've had to nearly empty his bank account- so I KNOW Arum was/is pissed to see a guy buy himself out- and then become a BILLIONAIRE WHO NOW OWNS THE LARGEST SKYCRAPER IN AMERICA...NOT DONALDICT TRUMP, NOT BILL GATES, A Hood brutha who invested into himself.

That is WHY Bud has a patethic resume. He bought onto Arum- when Bob had revealed how low down his game was/is- so I never blamed Bud for his lack of resume. He followed Tim Bradley -who allowed Bud to be his sparring partner- told him he is too good to be that. And what occurred then? Tim was called out for ducking- when all he did was refuse to fight his mandatory so he could join Arum...and he did and got Pacman and millions of dollars.
Bud was around then- saw that and felt blessed to get Top Rank.'
Good decision, bad timing.

Crawford is in NO way comparable PBF. Maybe in five years...
