Is Bud ducking Benavidez, Bivol and Beterbiev

Crawford is undefeated. It's only natural for a fan of boxing to wonder how much a boxer has in the tank.

What if Duran never moved up to fight Leonard? He could have justified it easily by saying he's too big, and different weight classes. What if he never moved up to fight Hearns? He could have justified that one even easier. Turns out he bit off way more than he could chew with Hearns. Who was way too good of a LMW for Duran. But the point is, the fans have an interest in how far and how much a fighter can take on.

 

Yeah, why did he retire at almost 40, undefeated and fresh off of a win over a p4p legend 3 weight classes up? He’s clearly just ducking LHWs that are MUCH bigger than he is.

 

Boots had his chance

 

That is just plan stupid. He moved up two weight already. From a career perspective He started at 135 and went all the the way to 168. He went up and fought Canelo.

For anyone to ***** and complain he didn’t go light heavyweight is just plain hating on the guy.

 

He had more to give. All undefeated fighters do.

 

So until you get your ass beat. Glad Crawford is retiring. When it is all said and done his opinion is the one that count on whether he has moved up enough.

I am still laughing that he should move to light heavyweight so bunch of arm chair fans can see him lose.

 

He can and should and do whatever the hell he wants to do. Its a free country.

As a paying fan, I am interested to see how much a great fighter has in the tank.

 

Duran started at 126, fought Leonard at 147. 21 pound difference. Crawford started at 135, fought Canelo at 168, 33 pound diffrence. And yet fans want him to move up to 175 to prove how good he is or test his limits. LOL

 

He also went up to 160 pounds to fight a PRIME MARVIN HAGLER.

 

OK...you want him to fight until he's old and gets knocked out... jesus....

 

No. He should have been testing himself when he was younger.

 

So what's your deal?? Moving up or age? BTW, Duran was 32 when he fought Hagler. TC is 38.

 

Who said he wasn't testing himself? And testing how? The fcuk does that even mean. By weight jumping? Grabbing a title from the easiest to beat titlist?

There is nothing wrong at all with unifying titles to become undisputed in a division.

 

If the point is that Crawford is a great fighter then I agree with you. If your point is Crawford deserves to retire then I agree with you. If your point is that Crawford can do whatever he wants then I agree with you. Im saying all undefeated fighters are not fully tested. You never know a fighters full capabilities until he loses.

 

"Undefeated fighters are not fully tested..." What an utterly ridiculous statement.
