    No, not really - I think both him and Crawford beat a lot of good fighters, but neither beat any prime great fighters or even close to it, so both resumes are a bit underwhelming even for the standards of your average HOF'er.
    Is that unreasonable?

    Gamboa and Mean Machine would’ve beaten many of those guys. Horn had beaten Pacquiao btw.

    LOL at including Chavez

    Gamboa and Mean Machine are terrible. Everyone and there brother KO's Gamboa. He's good for about 4 rounds then forget it

    As far as I recall no one did. He also didn't fight anyone worth mentioning befor that except for Salido. Now he's been stopped a few times since Crawford if I'm not mistaken. I've never kept close track of him so correct me if I'm wrong. To me he was a good fighter for the first half and then dropped off

    He was 34 years old and undefeated when he fought Crawford, 5-0 in title fights. He got stopped for the first time at just under 40 years old, and it was in the 12th round against Gervonta Davis with a torn Achilles.

    I still don't hold him in high regard. There's guys on Tszyu's resume that would have stopped him IMO. Regardless of Gamboa I rate Tszyu better than Crawford. I think he looks better on film and beat better fighters IMO

    Cool. It’s exactly what I’d expect from you. You’d probably pick Boom Boom Mancini over Kostya and Crawford.

    I see your still the little sniveling p###k as befor. It's a shame you can't grow up and act like a man. You still hide behind your screen and play wanna be hard guy. Your anything but. Your a wise guy coward who doesn't have the stones to be a man.

    There's history which I was actually hoping with these posts seemed like it could have gotten buried here. Then he showed his true colors at the end and I'm just tired of the guys crappie condescending BS
