    When Danny passed on fighting Postol people made him out to be a beast, especially after making Lucas "The Machine" quit. Crawford was in the same "chicken" boat until he dropped Postol and had him on the run, literally, and after the decision Viktor was degraded to bum status. Terence wants all the belts. Troy has the IBF and Ricky has the WBA, will they be labelled chickens and duckers if Crawford calls them out and they decline to fight him?

    Something tells me they won't, because American's are the only "scared" ones until they call a guy out, then they become "cherry pickers". I want to see the same **** happen to the overseas guys that happen to American fighters if they choose not to fight Crawford and unify.

    I want to see cherry, chicken, and duck emojis.
    I want every 3 thread to be about why they are cowards.
    I want to see entire cultural groups accused of turning on them for their cowardice.
    I want to see memes about them running from the beast Crawford.

    In the same fashion that it was done for opponents of Pacquiao and Golovkin. Troy is a nobody so anyone talking that money fight **** can cut it right now he will never see a million dollars in a boxing match. Burns is done, he might as well just get it over with and find a nice spot on the canvass to count to 10 on. War Bud!!! #140allthebelts

    GGG and Bud are the most feared in their division. tbh postol was getting knocked around like a rag doll vs Lucas. We want the champs to fight their mandatory, not rod salka.

    Terrence Crawford just became my buddy.
    War Crawford! Show the world what real boxers are about, but sadly you will get ducked like the plague.

    Let's see if fans want him to pay paper beltholders like Burns (who he already beat) a frikin' fortune to step in the ring with him.

    Hearn was literally trying to sell him to Broner. I ****ing hate Broner. For a guy who was calling himself "The Next Mayweather" he has fought no one. The Maidana fight was a cherry pick gone wrong. Crawford should get his shot and he should be the "money" fighter at 140 over bum boy Broner, but Crawford is not a rac(****) so even most of the Worldstarhiphop generation won't pay attention to him. He has the "Pretty Boy" Floyd curse, good fighter, boring personality.
    I guess he needs to throw money into a bonfire filled with strippers to get their attention.

    Crawford is not as willing to unify as I'd like him to be. I've been very unimpressed with his resume up until Postol and now he's gone back to fighting B-'s and C+'s it seems. I am a bit wary of him because after all he did drain himself on too many occasions to make 135 so he could have a great frame advantage which helps with his style.

    I have no problems with Crawford, true his style isn't exactly crowd-pleasing, but he is a very good boxer. Molina Jr isn't the greatest opponent but it's still a unification fight - if he wants all the belts at 140 that's a praiseworthy goal.

    Have you looked at Lomachenkos record lately? What top names does he have?
    No Frampton, Santa Cruz, Quigg, Martinez, Rigondeaux, Gamboa, Mares, Donaire, or Darchinyan.
    He only has Salido and that loss to Salido.
    So check yourself it's filled with bums.

    Crawford is fighting who he can fight. He is not a Mayweather or Broner, like people like you think.
    He is active and has solid names on his resume.

    True. One of the biggest problems with boxing in my opinion is that when someone is too good, and not a huge PPV star, it's near impossible for their team to find the money to get the top names in with him.

    He's already won the championship of the division and is defending against someone universally ranked in the Top 10. As far as follow up fights are concerned, we've done a lot worse.

    Dude, Crawford was on a 3 fight KO streak until Postol. What is everyone talking about ?

    Yes, like I said he's a very good boxer and I am definitely a fan.

    People (casuals) just like to see violent sluggers or relentless offense (e.g. Mike Tyson) and you have to be a fan of the sport to appreciate a counterpunchers like Ward or Crawford.

    Counterpunchers do often KO their opponent anyway, it's just a different style.

    True. The sluggers also have to be winners. Just look at what happen to Ruslan Provodnikov. He has never been in a boring fight and can't seem to break through.
    Crawford vs Ruslan in 2013 would be epic, now if it was booked it would be considered a cherry pick.

    Crawford is a bad man and he ducks no one. He is a well balanced and versatile fighter who adjusts to the fighter in front of him.

    Yeah especially when they try to fight stars from smaller weight divisions and won't even consider stars from higher weight classes.

    Actually maybe they should just fight a guy in the higher weight class, instead of praying to fight smaller guys and wanting absurd amounts of money to do so.
