    He's obviously nervous as hell. He's trying everything possible to give himself a perceived psyche boost.

    You got to exaggerate the truth just to make your point, it's proof that even you don't believe the B.S. that you are trying to push on the public.

    Crawford was just in the ring a little over a year ago. (13 months to be exact). Trying to make it seem like he's been on the shelf for 2 years sounds like you want to make a point to fit an agenda.

    37 years old means nothing because there are mulitple examples of fighters competing well and/or winning world titles at this age or older. Y'all been trying to call Crawford old for 5 years now. People questioned his age going into the Porter fight....funny thing is, both Porter and Canelo aren't too much younger than Crawford, but no one was questioning their ability based on their age.

    Anyone trying to convince the public that Crawford isn't chasing greatness with this match up is conflicted with reality. He's a man who's consistently wanted to fight the best. The champions and more times than not he didn't get the fights or at least when he wanted the fights due to him not "tap dancing" for the public and being a clown to make himself more marketable. He grinds, and produces. He's been a threat to anyone in the division he was campaigning in thus, people either moved out the division (Broner, Danny Garcia), used promotional company as a barrier (Thurman, Spence), or simply avoided him by out pricing or turning down official offers (Manny).

    Crawford could have rode off into the sunset after becoming a 2x undisputed champion if all he was doing was just padding stats and/or maximizing profit. Instead, he moved up to 154 in attempt to challenge himself with bigger guys. Then ultimately a fight that he wasn't even looking for was brought up and presented. He, years ago, said that Canelo is too big for him to be discussing a bout against when a reporter asked him about it. So, the fact he's choosing to fight such a large opponent and going into it with the mindset of WINNING the fight and not just cashing a check.....how is that not chasing greatness.

    Too many people spend way too much energy trying to discredit everything that is Terence Crawford. It's weird that such a great character and respectable champion can be hated so much, meanwhile people love these clowns out here like Ryan Garcia, Teofimo Lopez, Adrien Broner, Tank Davis, Ben Whitaker, etc....who go out their way to be disrespectful to their opponents, the public, and the sport.....

    Well if it's BS then that would mean you're full of bs.

    I said Crawford is chasing greatness, you then wrote an essay to say he's chasing greatness.

    Very strange.

    He didn't say anything wrong. Crawford is actually about to be 38 in less than a month and he has had only 1 fight in the last 24 months, it's a fact. If Crawford wins all of this would make the win even better. I know you’re a bud fanboy but you've been a bit more active and aggressive on the forum lately

    Accurate comprehension would tell you that the "B.S." that I was referring to is the stretch that you were pushing that he had fought one time in 2 years as if he isn't fighting every year.

    Claiming you were buying into the hype and saying you were conflicted is not the same as making a definitive statement that he's chasing greatness. But none of that matters at this point...... History was made and we were here to witness it in real time. Unlike those characters before Crawford, he showed up to actually win the fight, not just collect a paycheck and do everything to survive 12 rounds.

    He was definitely CHASING GREATNESS. That's not hype. I was never conflicted on that aspect.

    That's cute... You came to help him out. I know what he said and I responded and pointed out to him already why I responded the way I did. It's cool that goofs like you want to call me a "fanboy", but truthfully, I'm a boxing fan. Big difference. And tonight showcased that Crawford is exactly what I said he was....... It is what it is. I'm just happy I was able to witness history in this sport I love once again.

    He wasn't wrong, prior to fighting Canelo Crawford only had 1 fight in the past 24 months, this is a fact and this just makes the Canelo win even better. You're being weird.

    Yea, I've been called weird my entire life. Not sure if you saying it now is suppose to make me take a step back or not......lol. What he said may be correct, but how it is worded and in the context can be read as if there is an agenda. Because prior to fighting Canelo, he fought a year ago. And prior to that. He fought.....a year go.... He's fighting every year as I stated. But one way of saying it sounds like someone is trying to suggest he is pulling a "Keith Thurman" out here.........Let's not act like people hasn't tried to discredit Crawford for some of the silliest things throughout his career. Apparently to you, me pointing this things out, makes me a fanboy....lol. Whatever. I guess it's an issue that I'm a fan of one of the greatest fighters of the current era.

    Maybe I'm wrong if that agenda wasn't his intent. I've been wrong before. Evidence: I have an ex wife.....lol. Not that big a deal. This is a recreational activity for me. I discuss boxing to take myself away from everything I don't need a WiFi connection to deal with. You know, life.

    It was a great fight tonight. I'll rewatch it tomorrow before I really go into what I think I saw.
