After defeating Spence, would you say Crawford is on the same level as AJ, Wilder, Fury, Davis, Ryan, and Canelo when it comes to star power?
No he’s not on the level of AJ, Fury and Canelo fame wise but probably about as popular as the others he’s going to regret doing business with PBC because they’re going to wait him out as long as possible while he could be cashing in right now
Superstars are known by the casuals who don't watch boxing. Mayweather, AJ, Canelo, Pacquiao ect My mum knows who all these guys are and she hates boxing.... actually she probably doesn't know who Canelo but i'm sure many other mums do. I doubt many casuals who never watch boxing know who Davis and Ryan are... Crawford has what it takes to be one , but things just havn't worked out that way for him sadly. It happens. So he just only gets the appreciation from real fans.
Nope. He's nowhere near being a superstar. My take on what it means to be a superstar is someone who has great skillsets/work ethic, has a magnetic personality, able to do spectacular/photo finish moments in fights, other guys in your weight class also need to have clout of their own for you to be elevated to superstar status, particularly have something standout'ish go on for you outside the ring, etc. Most importantly though be known to the public. Guys like Ali, Tyson, Foreman, Mayweather, Pacquiao, etc. were superstars. They had all of the above going for them and then some. Crawford on the other hand is none of those things other than the skillset/work ethic part.
