    Crawford don't play and as of right now, he is the best out there. I am hoping against hope that whoever wins between Spence and Garcia calls him out. I doubt it but it would be a pleasant surprise and I am sure that the call out will answered immediately answered.

    Maybe, maybe not. Postol isn't chinny, and no one has stopped him, even Bud. But he can have bad balance, and go down on awkward shots, and that would have probably played a factor with him against Danny, who would have probably managed to get to him and drop him a time or two. Regardless, the first four rounds of the Bud match were nip and tuck, and once Bud dropped him twice, and let's be honest, he wasn't close to being hurt by either of those knockdowns, they were flash at best... and then Bud knew he had it in the bag, and hauled ass just in case. Style wise Crawford, had he stood and engaged, the match would have most likely been close all the way through. Basically what I'm saying is, Danny probably wouldn't have feared Postol's power, and gone all out, and fought Postol's fight, similar to what Taylor did, and yeah... looked worse in the process, but probably do enough to edge it. Knowing now, what we didn't know then.

    All of what you said is irrelevant, the real question is.... which of the fighters on Crawford's resume could beat the fighters on Danny's resume? And I'm talking the versions that fought Danny. The Matthysse that went on to beat Molina and Provodnikov, the Guerrero fresh off of giving Thurman hell for the last three rounds, the Peterson that went on to beat Avanesyan, the Khan that beat Alexander, Algieri and Collazo. Only maybe Postol and Horn have a chance against most of them. Hell... we already know Herrera beat Benavidez and didn't get credit. Then again Peterson struggled with Diaz, but Peterson is the definition of hot and cold, regardless, Diaz went on to get beaten down by Francisco Santana,after he'd just been beaten up by Mahonri Montes. So yeah, Felix Diaz is hard to gauge as well, he could look great, and immediately following that, like pure ass.

    My point is, Danny's resume beats most of the people on Crawford's resume with relative ease.

    Anybody in their right mind know Porter ain't got no win against Crawford, even Porter know that. The only reason Crawford didn't fight him because they were really cool and he wanted the champions but I think that Porter might have talked himself upon a beatdown now. It seems that Crawford can't get the other belt holder to bring it and Porter running his mouth so it will probably happen. One thing for sure, Crawford was up in Spence's locker room trying to get that fight.

    Garcia is straight up and down with no special effects as Floyd would say. He's good at what he does but he's basic. Bud wouldn't be too troubled by anything Garcia brings.
