With the Canelo fight coming up, is it fair to say Crawford is a Superstar now?

    because bud doesn't sell by himself, and sharpe might as well be elie seckbach as far as reaching boxing fans go. actually, i think elie pulls more boxing fan views than shannon does.
    if bud has a lot of fans, they sure don't like to pay to watch him. unless hes fighting someone with a big fan base.

    Who is Shannon Sharpe? When your best win is Viktor Postol then no, you're not a superstar.

    Shannon Sharpe and Crawford are two sporting unknowns outside the US, so no. Crawford has one A-grade name on his resume and he's 38 this year, that's not someone who has superstar appeal, especially to casual fans.
