    Why is the word great being used in the same sentence as Ennis?

    He hasn’t done anything yet.

    Could turn out to be another Broner for all we know

    I doubt he's ever seen Quartey fight. He's just arguing to argue.

    Yes, Quartey lost his big fights but that was against either HOFs or ATGs. How many has Crawford or Spence fought? Is there even one HOF between the two of them?

    Exactly perfect example of a guy who does not know **** about boxing or the history of the sport.

    Yes, of course they’re just our opinions.

    We can’t know for sure what would have happened.

    I think you’ve exaggerated though and are selling Crawford a bit short.

    Yes, he’s still got a lot to prove, but I don’t think all those guys would have beaten him with absolute ease.

    How do you think these guys would have done with Spence?

    I know what you mean, but he was still a world class fighter.

    He lost to the best fighters he fought, which big fights did he win?

    Espana, Oba Carr, Cool Vince Phillips to name a few and he deserved the verdict over Oscar as well and Vernon Forrest.

    No I'm not selling Crawford short, I didn't say all of those guys prime for prime beats Crawford with ease.

    Prime for Prime (IMO) Crawford washed Judah, Maidana, Castillo, and Corrales with ease.

    thats not why he didnt fight stzu, he called stzu out prince naseem and Oscar de la hoya out while he was a super feather weight

    Sounds rediculous for a super feather weight to call oscar de la hoya out but we see he did fight him, took a while but he eventually made it to 154

    BS Paquaio was in his prime vs morales and barerra
    the 147 run was full of catchweight rehydration clauses and blowing up 140s to 147 for 2 years straight and lost half of those meanwhile mayweather who you say didnt fight nobody in there prime was fighting p4p list fighters and top 3 ranked welterweight in the division
