    Crazy how 2 of the 4 so called kings struggled against an old shot glass chinned gamboa, and yet Crawford completely dissected him and destroyed him back when he was still in somewhat prime form. Same thing goes for his win against prime postol.

    Crawford one of the most wasted talents I've ever seen in my life. So sad.

    2023 and you're talking about Crawford Gamboa

    BHAHAHA

    what a failed career

    Khan beating Maidana is legit a better career win than anything Crawfish has achieved.

    Wasted

    Ignoring duckfish, Spence has only really missed out on Pac & Thurman due to injury, both easy wins for him.

    Crawford is certainly among the best of the era, but at the same time he will never see his full potential realized. There are even more skills lying untapped beneath the exterior & this is true of so many others today.

    There are some failed ATGs walking around, who never put those extra glossy coats on their skills that fighting good comp gives to a boxer.

    Very often, the difference between 'good' & 'ATG' is in the final few brushstrokes that are applied.

    Good wins back then, but what has he done now? Those 2 wins remain his most notable wins.
