Did he do something illegal? Did Crawford abide by the rules. Is he the only one who loses weight to fight in a different division? The answer is no but it doesn't stop the haters. Next excuse please......
Hey idiot, he hasn't even fought at 147 yet so how could he duck anyone. Give it time and he will fight Spence. Unlike the fighters I mentioned Crawford has ducked no one. Keep up hater
No. They receive Nigerian passports with fake DOCUMENTS. A Nigerian passport is a Nigerian passport. You can’t say something is somehow faker than a passport for a real country, doesn’t make sense. Unless you believe Nigeria doesn’t exist?
My goodness you are pedantic. You know well many people from that part of the world forge fake passports, fake names, fake businesses and fake families. There really isn't any need to look deeperror into.
He should have been fighting at 147 from the get go which is his natural weight. Instead he done a Christian Bale and starved himself down so he could fight midgets from the circus
The only other fighter that drains themselves down from 170lbs to 135lbs to fight featherweights is Conor Mcgregor who isn't rated by the purists who see him merely as a jumped up weight bully. The man walks around at 170lbs and is fighting 5'5, 130 pounder's. They never stood a chance.
Crawford's biggest problem is that he's fighting for Top Rank who doesn't have anyone worth a damn at 147 and not Haymon who has all the big names at 147. He will be frozen out at 147 and won't be able to improve his legacy because of it. He needs to find a way to get out of his contract with Top Rank or go back down to 140.
I couldn't agree more with this after Postol beat Lucas he was seen as the second coming by many here and these same people now here bashing him were the same ones who said Crawford will duck him and if he fights Postol he will get his ass kicked. Funny how they turned against him after Crawford tooled him. Reminds me how many turned on Kovalev after Ward stopped him, pathetic.
Thinking about it, Gamboa had at least won at the higher weight class before. He was a top 10 guy at 135 when Crawford beat him. We don't know what kind of 126 pounder Rigs was, let alone what type of 130 pounder he was, so I disagree on that point. We know Rigs was a top notch 122 pounder, and thats it. Gamboa was a solid win for Crawford. At least along the lines of Jason Sosa.
Crawford has no Russell Jr equivalent on his resume, and won't unless he beats a Thurman, or Spence type. People don't realize the quality of Loma's Russell jr. win.
Not with the half hearted effort he gave, from being pimped by Arum. The man hasn't fought since either.That wasn't the featherweight Axeman in there, that was an Axeman who just showed up for the check, after being shelved indefinitely by Arum.
