    When you look at this post full of childish insults leveled at Terence Crawford you can tell its author was a Mayweather groupie , who latched on to Spence till Crawford destroyed him. Now he's latched on to Tank till he finally gets dispatched lol Just the name he chose, Ellerbe, proves he aint got a clue,
    I ridiculed Crawford after PimpC named him the Cold Eyed Assassin but Pimp was proven right . I apologized & agreed with him like a man should. Look how you act when youre wrong 99% of the time lol

    His resume might not be the best but skill wise he's amazing if you actually watch him fight you would understand that

    Nah, Crawford is going to be the best of his generation imo. But he has poor management atm. WW was so packed.

    His resume is pretty weak for a P4P star, I'll freely admit that. And I've been critical of Crawford in the past. However, he's not overrated when it comes to skills. There really wasn't anybody he could have faced that would have boosted his resume; he's fought in a pretty weak era especially for WW.

    If he knocked out old man Pacquaio, which I think he would have if they fought, he would have got no credit for it. He beat a smaller, old man his detrectors would say. Crawford knocks out his closest rival in a non-competitive fight and Spence becomes washed because of his car accident. Even though he still beat Ugas and Garcia before Crawford embarrassed him. You can't win if you're Crawford.

    My main point is you can say his resume is overrated but he didn't duck challenges like Mayweather did when Williams and Margarito were active at WW. Or when Pacquaio hadn't already been KTFO around 2009. Crawford beat his closest rival up in a non-competitive fight. He fought the ranked fighters at WW, knocked out all of them. If Crawford is overrated than almost all other boxers are as well.

    Crawford beat his biggest rival Spence in a fight that many thought he would lose,not only did he win but he destroyed his opponent from the first bell,never behind and never once in trouble to make himself a double undisputed Champ in two divisions in the four belt era,Crawford deserves his props and his career is not finished yet .

    lolno. Of course not. On the one hand i'm positing that it might not be stupid to think that Bud can fight Canelo at 168 and lets's see what he looks like at 160. On the other I'm saying that Lomachenko is small at 140 and 135. I'll go back and look at my posts and see if I didn't make myself clear.

    That said, don't get on a pony about Rigondeaux. Even Lomachenko himself acknowledges that Rigo was too small and he's not all that excited about that victory, but if memory serves, you predicted Rigo would beat him and pretty sure I said it would be competitive at the very least.
