    The Canelo fight really jumped Terrace up for me .. his speed, power , defense and incredibly tricky style might be too much at 147 and up ... not sure ..

    What is Crawfords best win at LW? Burns or Gamboa? Both of whom had spent most of their careers at the feather weights, neither have a LW career to write home about & neither deserve HOF honors.. Crawfords career is thin until u get to Spence & Crawford who were both washed.

    Duran was one of the greatest lightweights of all time. Crawford's best weight was 147. If he's going 12 rounds with Burns and Beltran, I would think Duran is just too much for him. Duran by UD.

    At LW I’d favour Duran heavily, at SLW & WW I’d favour Crawford, above that I’d favour Crawford heavily.

    :lol:

    I've already mapped out the first 39 posters at 3 per week, so 13 weeks are ready to roll. I'm a bit surprised how these have been panning out, both here and at YouTube. Over at YouTube, Duran-Crawford is actually the closest one so far, narrowly closer than Greb-Calzaghe. The fact Greb-Calzaghe was the closest poll on YouTube (until Duran-Crawford) was surprising to me, given the fact there is no fight footage of Greb, but there is footage of Saddler, Fullmer, and Basilio.

    There is a method to my madness, however. I'm hoping to eventually turn many of these into videos, where Saddler-Sanchez will kick things off 5-8 weeks from now,
