    Bud's really talented but his resume is relatively weak. Crawford is going on 31 and his style is not making him many fans.

    The Benavides fight will probably not do much for him so he needs to step it up. .

    I think Arum will have Benavidez fight the Matthysse Pac winner first if he can pull it off. Crawford will then fight Benavidez if he wins. In the meantime not sure who Crawford can fight from Arum's stable.

    It’s an ok fight, Crawford will be a big favorite. I’m a little surprised Arum hasn’t thrown Alvarados name into the mix.

    Horn and Benavidez is a decent first two fights at welterweight for Crawford and hopefully he lands a major fight after Benavidez(if it does happen next).

    Off the Horn bandwagon and onto the Benavidez train now. You and Stupid Seven Rising want Crawford beaten so badly you have both become delusional. "Jose punishes him and violently KO's Dud boring ass." Horn was going to do that to "lil Bud" don't your remember. And as for "holding and Byrd" making a difference.....26 stitches in Horn's face and nary a bruise on Bud. I can't wait to see Bud keep winning and knowing that it drives you two idiots insane. IF this fight happens we will get to read all of your ruminations about what Benavidez will do to Crawford and then you will move on to the next victim, and the next, and the next...….Enjoy to journey because I sure am :) BAHAHAHHAHA!!

    And he dropped Postal TWICE!!! The first time that had happened to him as a pro. Idiots like this guy think the sport is hitting and not boxing. The object is to hit and not get hit.

    I'm still on Horn's bandwagon, unlike you, who the moment Bud beats him, you like a fool denigrates his best win as a bum, Horn was drained, and its been clear since last year, Horn had outgrown the division, so fingers crossed he'll do well at LMW although sadly, I doubt he will, since in all likelihood, he's too small to be a force up there. I was on Jose Benavidez's wagon 4 years ago on here, that's when I did my thread on him, he's had a lot of ups and downs since, struggled with Herrera and Santana, but after coming back from being shot, he's looked like the Benavidez I became a fan of to begin with. There's no guaranteeing Crawford wins this. Jose has issues with pressure, which is why Herrera, Santana and Paez gave him issues at times, thankfully Bud won't give him issues in that department will he? Jose is rangy, has a long reach and is about as massive as massive gets for Welterweight, if you haven't watched Jose, do so, maybe you won't be so easily Bwahahaing this opponent.

    OHHHH!!! REALLY??? HE DID???? No ****, he knew he had it won, and didn't want to take another risk, and that one round of bravery doesn't invalidate the succeeding 7 rounds of cowardice.

    And idiot, you do realize fighters can come forward and be defensively responsible too right? Andre Ward as much as I dislike him, makes Bud look like a woman by comparison.
