We know that Pac and Floyd are unquestionably generational talents. Lomachenko and Inoue are also generational talents. But what about guys like Usyk, Clenelo and Crawford?
Usyk is a for sure yes. Canelo can look pretty basic at times but it’s rare for a fighter to do all the things he’s doing so that’s another yes. Crawford looks good but he really should do more with his career so we’ll likely never know
I voted Usyk and Crawford. Canelo is very good but he showed his level in losing to a GGG who was on the slide.
There's actually not much left of Crawford's career so when you take into account that he's STILL criticised for having had relatively weak competition I say no he isn't unless he does something spectacular pretty soon.. Loma & Usyk are breaking records .. Crawfords suing 90 year old Ali promoters for racism
crawford had the chance to be but he decided to fight bums instead . He has the skillset and the tools but never proved it. At least canelo fought GGG twice
Alvarez is, Usyk is close and Crawford may be by the time his career is over but he needs a couple of big wins.
Usyk is for sure Crawford is a super talent but his resume is very weak and even more so for someone with almost 40 fights Clenelo has the impressive resume but it doesn't look near as impressive if you remove the judges from his pocket, his stacked deck from beneath his stumpy hobbit feet, and the PEDs from his bloodstream and replace the W's with L's his judges stole from his opponents. Loma, Usyk, Inoue and Terry would all paddle Clenelo's ass something rotten if they were all remotely the same size.
Not Canelo. He should have four losses and he's already had a PEDS scandal. Probably at least one fight was fixed. He's not that good. Really only Usyk, but you can give it to Crawford because its not that great of a generation. Usyk would be somebody in any era.
Get Clenelo tfoh.. Disrespecting Usyks name and achievements. Clen fought bums for 40 fights with a fair share of weight bullying. He then Cherrypicked old Mayweather, got schooled. He got another lesson from Lara. He had a razor close fight with Trout. Skip a few bums then he cherrypicks 36 yo GGG and loses 8-4 twice. Since then it has been all smoke and mirrors with fixed fights, namely Kovalev, Yildrim (clear as day fixes), Smith and Plant (highly suspect to be fixes). Clenelos resume shite when you don't just look at the names (which is a brain dead way of analysing someone's career) and look at the circumstances around each fight. He is highly manufactured and anyone who can't consider or see that is not a fan of boxing but the fake hype they've been brainwashed into believing
Usyk without a doubt. Canelo can be viewed that way due to him having the star power to control his situations. History will not be kind to Terence Crawford if he doesn’t do anything spectacular within the next two years as he simply dont have the opponents or a long dominant reign to judge him on.
