    P4P:
    1. Ward
    2. Crawford
    3. Lomachenko

    I think Lomachenko is the best out of these guys, though on an H2H level.
    Golovkin-Canelo winner should take number 2 or 3.

    Yea he's boring as hell, but I will say that being on National TV might be contributing to some of his lack of personality. It's kind of hard to open up in front of millions if you're a shy guy.

    Yup, Mikey won't want that work. He's going to run to Linares and maybe the smaller Loma.

    everyone is picking spence over crawford.

    Styles make fights, and the bully style of spence will not work on crawford.

    I will be the first to say it. crawford takes him.

    Ward agrees with me. "This is about levels. Indongo had never been in with nobody like Crawford, and nobody with close to his ring IQ".

    That was what I was referencing. Trayanvoski should have never had a belt. They cherry picked an amateur from Namibia and it was a cherry picked gone wrong. And Burns. Feasted on British bums. Crawford can beat Indongo, Burns, and Trayanovski all in the same night.

    yo guys. Phantom punch alert.

    ESPN showing it in slow mo now. That left to the body never landed.....and indongo starts folding over like a chair. The follow up right hook lands but he's already on his way down

    Believe it or not, I'm a very shy guy in front of a crowd, yet I couldn't be that boring if I tried, I'd be sheepishly charming in a Gvozdyk kind of way, he just has zero personality. He's a a bore, there's no excuse for it.

    So are you saying Indongo was a great opponent? Are you saying Crawford has a stunning personality? Because if the answer is yes to either, you'd be lying.:deal: I'm not hating, I'm simply being honest.

    Promoter will put a damper on making these fights. Some we may see and some we won't.

    I'll give you a ton of credit for picking Crawford here, you deserve it, it was clear to both of us Indongo was a hype job. But I want my credit for picking Sor Rungvisai, Berchelt, Horn, Ceja and Nery.:D

    Oh god. Imagine a Crawford vs. Horn scenario (where Horn is coming off a successful defense in a rematch with a yet-further declined Pacquiao) - the haters would have a field day. It might actually be smarter from a business standpoint to go a harder path and build up fan demand for a big fight (Thurman, Spence) instead of going for the automatic gimme of another weight division championship.
