    Hmm so you want Crawford to travel 2 more divisions and dominate a talented fighter? If I said I would only be impressed if Lomachenko dominated Spence what would you say?

    Horn is much better than a lot of fools are making him out to be. His defense is susceptibly good.

    - Which makes Bud's total domination that much more impressive.

    Crawford was simply being Crawford. He did what he does best. He has done it his whole life if you read his bio. He was a bully in school, kicked out of 5 different ones. But you know what happens to bullies when someone really talented finally stands up to them? Spence is that guy.

    I agree but I would still say Crawford was impressive. He did handle Horn quite well and showcased some good skills. But the extent that he's being hyped is a little ridiculous. Like Horn was able to get in some clean punches on him, and I think many people are just hyping Bud to the moon in general. Like I do not think Bud would have an easy time with Thurman, Spence or Khan. Horn's a solid fighter but he's limited. He was tailor made for Bud. I mean, Thurman could honestly dance circles around Bud, and we haven't seen Bud have to deal with somebody with that kind of movement and natural counter punching ability.

    I've heard people on youtube talk about how Bud would easily dispatch of a guy like Thurman and I just don't buy it. And I completely agree about the stoppage. I mean Horn did look exhausted but he didn't look done. I think Horn may have had enough left to make a late rally.

    This is pretty much how a Pacquiao-Lomachenko fight will look. Sizewise.

    The worst part is you gullible fools buying into this bull **** about his second fight
    Come on, we all know for a fact he fought multiple times under pro rules which means theygave him the same exact experience as any other would.

    Loma isn't on Crawford's level, don't think he can get there either

    And they would be right. Crawford is so much bigger than Loma it is silly to consider them fighting. It would be like Loma fighting Roman Gonzalez.

    Shush, the logic you are speaking might cause these guys heads to explode if they try to comprehend it.
