    I can't rate Crawford as the P4P because although he has dominated two divisions I just can't see him beating the top guys at 147, 140 is a weak division comparatively and the competition at 147 is much higher. I don't think he beats Thurman, Brook, Spence or Porter.

    If Crawford does move up and beats one of the top guys at 147 I will have no hesitation in saying he's the best because no one bar Gonazalez would have done what he done in 3 divisions.

    140 is too weak a division he needs to move up I feel he beats indongo.
    Spence, Brooke, Thurman Garcia is where it's at get. Division will be hot if Crawford joins the mix.

    The lineal jww championship is within his reach. To be the lw and jww lineal champion of the world is a pretty good because it means that he has faced the best the division had to offer even if you think that the divisions were weak.

    He's already captured the JWW Lineal Champion. TC won the vacant Lineal Title vs Postol last summer after Danny Garcia vacated it when he moved up to WW.

    If he thinks it's important go for it I can see that point of view. It's his career. I just want to see him in big fights and before primes are lost by waiting. To me 140 is a waste of time for him however it is a nice feather in the cap so to speak. We'll see

    This. Crawford is skilled, but can't give him much credit for beating Diaz, who couldn't beat Peterson and failed to knockout Vasquez. I do give him credit for Postol, who was coming off a great win against Mattysse. He needs to fight Indongo then move up to 147.

    Every aspect of a great style is really really good. He is big and will cope with 147 no problem. At this very moment in time him and Lomo have a real good argument for claiming the top 2 spots in the P4P rankings. I know Diaz wasnt quite all that but Crawford makes it look so easy you can see the real level of quality he is fighting on.

    I wasn't sold and initially felt he would eventually get clipped but after watching the Diaz fight, his overall level has risen as far as ring IQ/generalship. Defensive awareness. Punch placement and timing. He definitely is a top p4p fighter.
