    Boring fight for sure, but we didn't know going in who would win. So it was a great boxing match, but a poor fight.

    There isn't a single person watching this PPV who isn't a hardcore anyway. Why on earth should they be pandering to the one-fight-per-year casuals?

    I expected a Crawford KO. He fought smart and made it look easy. Boring fight though.

    Considering the "credit" he gets for fighting Berto, I don't think it would have been a bad fight, specially in his last fight. At this point last year, Crawford was already a big deal.

    Beautiful performance by Crawford, didn't like the taunting at the end but he won 119-106 in my book. Exceeded my expectations but I did expect a Crawford decision.

    Crawford solidifies his position on my pfp rankings but drops a bit on my favorites listing.

    Technical, aggressive, active - I thought it was a very good fight. Can't really see what can be complained about.

    Crawford wins at least 9 rounds on everyone's card against an undefeated well-schooled boxer, scores two knockdowns and wins a lineal championship in a second division.

    ...And people are starting to hate him.

    Sounds about right.

    Because HBO have closed their purse strings, charged $60 to see this and want to push Crawford as a guy who can carry a PPV or be an opponent for Pacquiao.

    On this performance those that paid won't be coming back to pay next time and Pacquiao's gonna say "**** this, I'll fight someone who suits me better/will be more exciting to fight and hasn't turned the fans off".
