I like Crawford too.

But I see this event for what it really is: one guy ducking his one true dangerous opponent... and another guy wanting a little limelight before calling it quits on his career.

Me... I'd rather not be bothered with hype about a 168-pounder who has even wanted to fight for a bogus cruiserweight title, fighting against a bloated 147-pounder, on whom the jury is still out whether he can even carry his power over to 154.

Meanwhile, the true challenge to this protected diva has been sitting, stewing in his own disappointment... while Ginger fans give the diva a pass for ignoring him.

But alas... boxing has truly changed.

Bring on the 3-ring circus.
