Bigger, stronger, faster, hits harder Crawford will have success at 147no prob Mikey is a 135/140 IMO 147 too much for Mikey Fight will never happen tho
I agree he punches too hard and he's too accurate. I'd like to see Garcia avoid him and move down to 135 and try to get Loma in the ring which imo is a closer fight.
Crawford would outbox Garcia and win a UD or a late TKO. Garcia should stay at 135/140 I think he beats anybody else.
Agreed. Huge Garcia fan here. I think Mikey should clean up at 135 for the next year and then maybe take over at 140 once Crawford is mixing it up with the big boys.
Lots of sense being spoken on this thread. I half expected to come in and find one idiot or another claiming Crawford would be moving up to duck Mikey, Loma or Rigo! And I only half joke including Rigo on that list!
I never get tired of watching crawford fighting. He has it all. He's complete as F. His boxing IQ is off the charts. He has unlimited resources. He's #1 p4p material. I wouldnt bet agaisnt him vs any fighter, any, and that includes garcía.
Crawford while he's a slow starter once hes in his zone he's the only fighter other than maybe rigo, that at times reminds of of mayweather when it comes to accuracy, timing and composure. Hes not quite on the same level as mayweather but i see some similarities that i don't recall seeing in anybody else, and he's only getting better.
I noticed that He's still making some mistakes, both offensively and defensively that leaves him vulnerable at times, not huge mistakes but small ones that could be exploited on the elite level. Like i say he is improving every fight so hopefully he irons them out. He also hasn't been tested with an elite fighter yet, we don't know if he will have the same level of composure against a thurman or spence, impossible to say hes close to floyds level at this point
i think bud wins as well. size, speed, and power over mikey. but besides the speed power n size both these guys can do it all both. i think bud wins as well the real challenges are at 147. its dangerous there. just a little more dangerous then mikey. guys like errol spence are beyond dangerous .
I think Crawford is the most talented of the 140-147 group (Mikey, Thurman, Spence) and I'd favor him over any from that group. Tho you can never count out human wrecking ball Porter or left hook from hell Swift out. But Crawford-Broner DEFINITELY needs to be done, Crawford needs to beat a name familiar with American fans. He doesn't need Broner, but it would be beneficial in many ways. Fans been asking for this one for some time now.
