Terence Crawford is well aware of the viral clip of Gervonta Davis vowing to put "Bud" to sleep if the two ever fight at 147 pounds.
To that, the newly-crowned welterweight champion of the world believes "Tank" should tread lightly.
"Well, he's just talking. He's got the confidence in himself that he believes he can do that, because he's been knocking all these fighters out that he's been in the ring with," Crawford began explaining on "The Breakfast Club" on Thursday.
"No knock to 'Tank,' but there's definitely levels and if he comes up to 147 and he's thinking he's just going to knock Terence Crawford out, he's got another thing coming."
Crawford did confirm that he'd be willing to stay at welterweight a little longer just to wait for Davis, who would be moving up from 135 pounds, as a "Bud" vs. "Tank" bout would be a "big money fight."
But he's not so sure that it would benefit him legacy-wise.
"And then what?" Crawford added, referring to if he'd beat Davis. "Everybody's gonna say he was too small. Nobody gonna give me credit. They're gonna say 'oh man, you beat up a little guy that fights at 135.'"
"What kind of recognition am I gonna get for beating up on 'Tank'?"

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

This stuff with guys talking about hoping divisions like they were afterthoughts and normal is really getting silly. In 24 hours so many run with Bud going everywhere from Canelo to Tank. Tank has zero, zip, nata business chumming a 147 fight with a man who is looking completely North at 154. Fans need to stop being so friggin gullible and easy
. The man would be as wide as he is tall ffs!
Lesson learned with Jermell who basically jumped at the first lotto for a fight he’ll likely lose, physically and title wise, and managed to delay if not entirely prevent a perfectly natural mega fight with now p4p fully unified Crawford coming to his house.

if terence is going to stay at welter, jaron or eimantas should be next. if he's going to fifty four he should be able to use his wbo belt to become mandatory to timmy
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

"Breaking: Errol Spence Activates Rematch Clause To Fight Terence Crawford Again"
Ok. So now that Spence has regained his senses, he has decided to activate the rematch clause, probably at 154. Makes sense, and comes as no surprise. Tough to ask Spence to stay with that beatdown as the one and only memory of him vs. Crawford. He probably feels he can at least be more competitive this time around. Although Bud would probably beat him decisively again... a rematch at 154 would make for a compelling fight. But there are more positives about this which have nothing to do with Spence. Forcing a rematch with Crawford will at least for now take Canelo off the radar. Crawford vs Canelo is just BAD for boxing. Not that Canelo and his team would give a shit about that... but it would be bad. Circus bad.
