    Fair enough. I won't disagree with that. I just don't think it was a noticeable difference.

    No, horn and indongo really didn't. Benevidez won more rounds combined than horn and indongo... Lol

    I’m serious
    Crawford is big
    He’s got longer reach than Floyd
    Can fight southpaw and orthodox
    Great defense he’s fast
    He can punch
    Has a chin
    He’s give Floyd problems

    You're a clown. His defense is not even comparable to Floyd or his speed. He has more power but his power isn't better than a Cotto at 154, he wouldn't hurt Floyd even if he landed flush. Floyd is faster, better technique, better defense, better offense, more accurate, the list goes on and on. Only thing Crawford has on him is switch hitting and power.

    Hahahaha. He wouldn't beat the Floyd who fought Pacquiao let alone a prime Floyd. Stop it before I slap you with some baby powder.

    Yep same here, it was a good even fight after 6 in which Crawford then took over.

    I'm hearing people claim Crawford won every round in other threads, totally out on what went on. Benevidez has the youth to come again.

    I agree. 147 wasn’t Mayweather’s best weight but the Mayweather that beat Marquez would also defeat Crawford. At lower weights it would be less of a contest between the two.

    I knew he wasn't going to get whipped like people were claiming.

    The Mayweather that beat Berto would beat Crawford. I love Crawford, I'm one of his biggest fans since WAY back when people were picking Gamboa to beat him. @CST80 can back me up since we've been at it over Crawford, but Floyd is just levels above Crawford. At best Crawford wins 4 rounds and that's being generous to him.

    Honestly never seen him fight before but I thought he gave Crawford his toughest fight I can think of off my head.

    Floyd is too accurate a fighter. He hardly wastes anything in the ring. Crawford got hit clean wat to much from a fighter you thought didn't belong. Floyd would be even more accurate.
