    We got any more British over the hill welters for him to feast on?

    Unless PBC cuts the freeze out crap, it'll probably be Pac, Thurman, maybe even M Garcia. Don't think PBC will let him go near ESjr.

    Crawford vs Spence Jr might be best fight to sell.
    Ofc then one from them will look less marketable after this fight. One will win, another will be defeated.
    Not lucrative risk?

    He could fight Cotto or JMM, would fit right in with Brook and Khan in terms of shotness

    Pac unrealistic.

    I'm not sure about Mikey Garcia, but def Shawn Porter & Ugas!

    I like those three for Crawford and they might be attainable with the exception of Thurman. I think that he will duck.

    What's Ugas' or Mikey Garcia's status? Would they be available? Ugas actually deserves the shot and would be among the best names on his resume.

    Perhaps Taylor or Ramirez moving up?

    Crawford also could move up but he faces the same PBC problem with Jermell. Jermell has a loss and I think he has more power to match Crawford, so maybe that fight is easier to make. Possibly Crawford-Teixeira (the WBO belt holder) is a possibility.

    3 onesided mismatches. I could easily see crawford stopping all 3 guys and then hearing some excuses on who he has to fight next to get to spence.

    He can fight anyone he wants if he leaves Arum.

    I think the most realistic opponent he can face next, the one with 100% certainty is going to happen, is a fight with Bob Arum.

    Well at least Bob is a top 5 guy in his division--one of the world's top boxing promoters yes sir. :risas3:
