    Loma is better than the version of Spence that Crawford defeated and Regis is arguably better than any fighter Crawford has fought when he fought them. Both are extremely skilled but it seems as though Haney has better names at a much younger age than Crawford.

    That version of Loma is better than that version of Spence

    Both are class but Crawford has more accolades and his destruction of Spence and win over Porter trumps Haney’s razor thin decision win over Loma and domination of Prograis.

    No.

    I can get onboard with Haney being top ten, but Crawford, Inoue and Usyk are a lock for the top 3.

    Why are the bscene fanboys flocking here? Keep that cancer over there.

    Haney is not in the same stratosphere of Inoue, Crawford, or Usyk. All of those 3 finish their opponents when they can (especially Bud and Naoya). All of those 3 have essentially zero close fights and Naoya soundly erased doubt in his lone close fight. Inoue is undefeated through 4 divisions and undisputed in 1, going for 2 undisputed divisions this December...which - again - using small words for the PBC fanbase...Inoue is undefeated through FOUR divisions and was undisputed in his THIRD weight class and is trying to become SECOND MALE (in 4 belt era) to be undisputed at TWO weights (his

    and

    weight class).

    The PBC fanbase are so toxic and pathetic. Just look at how they abandoned Spence...fairweather fans. Embarassment.

    No.

    But it’s about time we start hearing some news about who Crawford is going to fight next. I got him P4P #1 but he is going to loose that spot if he is not fighting.

    he only has an argument to surpass crawford if hes to beat matias and teofimo imo, and probably enters the podium he shares with inoue and usyk if he beats one of them. teofimo is bigger p4p but matias is the best in the weight class, to me. neither are easy for haney and would likely be very close, but if he was to very clearly beat one of them then maybe he enters the discussion. im not sure either fight happens and im not sure he wins both, or even either.

    Correct me if I'm wrong here but it sounds like OP is saying Haney at his age (idk, 24?) has a superior resume than what Crawford had at 24.

    No, he's saying Haney now has a better resume than Crawford now, despite being much younger.

    He's wrong.
