Could Terence Crawford possibly be the heir to Mayweather's pound-for-pound throne?

    I believe he could be once Mayweather retires.

    He's an ambidextrous boxer-puncher with a very high level of ring intelligence. His reflexes are sharp, chin is solid, jab is piston like, timing is impeccable, footwork is impressive and he's also a phenomenal body puncher.

    What's not to like here?

    no.... he's garbage

    he's fought nothing but bums....

    and struggled against a gamboa who had no business at lightweight....


    mathysse knocks this kid out.

    I'm not sold on his chin but he is smooth and comes with a game plan. I don't think he has elite speed either, very good but not elite. He'll climb the ranks and maybe crack top ten by next year.

    a gamboa who's been inactive for the past 3 years... and is a small featherweight, let alone fighting at lightweight.... broner put it best... shortboa....

    he has nothing.... 0.... he'd get murdered by a pacquiao....

    Charles, why are you so emotional? Go get some breakfast, kid. I promise you'll feel so much better afterwards.

    He has a glassy chin little gamboa rocked him imagine if one 2 guys last night landed flush on his chin ROFL
     
  9. Bud is a beast, but I think he's in serious trouble once he runs into a real puncher. I think Ruslan and Lucas would KO him.

    So it seems that 4 out of the 9 comments in this thread are by two well renowned trolls. I wouldn't be surprised if they were the same person to be honest.

    Provodnikov is easy work.

    Matthysse poses problems to anyone at light welterweight, including Crawford.
     
  13. Matthysse walked through Hell to beat Ruslan and was almost stopped in the eleventh...

    Doubt Crawford can crack what Matthysse couldn't.

    Not sold on him yet. He KO'd two glass chinned fighters and he wasn't looking impressive in those fights. I don't think he's that great.
