    What an efficient killer. Perfectly found and delivered. I don't care if Indongo wasn't a great champ and was made for him, that was more destructive than we imagined.

    I have no problem with genuine real people, I prefer it, but guys with zero life in their eyes, zero excitement in becoming the first unified champion in a decade, zero change in his monotone droning voice aggravates me. You don't have to be an a-hole to have a personality, of which he has none.

    Crawford was definitely the physically bigger man than Indongo.
    He's big enough to hang with the welterweights just fine. Crawford vs Spence is a dream fight.
    Crawford vs Mikey is also brilliant.

    Some guys would have carried a vastly inferior opponent twelve playing it safe with pot shots. He took care of biz. So you can't say he's COMPLETELY boring. On interviews yes, dear Lord, exquisitely boring. In the ring he bowled down the pins that were set up and didn't screw around.

    For me what separates Crawford from the rest of the guys at light/welter is his accuracy. He also has excellent technique, good speed and good power. He will be the man at 140 and if he can carry power to 147, he will be the man at 147.

    He got shot in the back of the head in a car a few years back, the bullet lodged in his skull and he survived relatively unscathed..... or so we're told.:sisi1

    Above Loma and Ward? I know you like them too.

    I totally respect Teddy's top 3 and how he defends them, but Thurman number 4, wtf?!

    Just tough company at the top, I don't think I can call Crawford 2.

    He was probably planning on it, but Indongo gave him no choice, he was practically throwing himself at him begging to be KO'd.:lol: In the ring, he's dull as a doornail, unless the opponent gives him ample opportunites. Those Klimov, Prescott, Sanabria and Postol matches still loom large in my mind. Complete snoozefests.
