Crawford reminds me of a black juan manuel marquez. Hes not the fastest, strongest, quickest, most athletic fighter out there but his boxing iq is very high and is willing to take a shot in order for him to land a well placed one of his own.
I remember when Crawford first started making waves and people were making out he was some kind of Mayweather-Pacquiao hybrid. that seems to have died down now
definitely indongo and probably would have stopped this version of brook. kavaluiskas could of lasted the distance.
I think his lack of defense was show vs Brook, and if he risks a top level fighter, it will be an issue again. Crawford is being billed as this amazing pound for pound fighter. He's not Jones, or Mayweather, or Calzaghe on defense. He's more like an above average defensive fighter. I heard before he was forced on boxing he was KO'd in gyms with MMA gloves. What Crawford is is a very skilled and fast handed fighter, who prefers to operate on the outside.
Sugar Ray Leonard fought the best. Crawford until very recently is wasting him prime. I never thought Leonard was mean, more like a showboat.
Olu, I guess! SRR had a much better defense. Crawford would be up against it vs Hearns or Leonard would never fight Hagler
I said Pretty Boy Floyd version did and then some. 130, 135, 140. At 147, he gave u a few fights he displayed offensive aggression. Hatton, Ortiz and Judah fight.
Leonard is better but Crawford has much more '****' in him than Ray did and Mayweather for that matter.
