    Are you saying Crawford can crack better than Cintron x2, Cotto, Williams, Diaz, Santos (who was 5lbs shy of being a light heavyweight), Clottey, and Six Heads Lewis?

    SMH at some of you posters.

    I wouldn't say Cotto is a sore loser. He has stormed out of the ring but that's about it.

    Never said that. Here's what I said. " I don't that Margarito's chin would have held up under Crawford." Here's why. Crawford is more precise with his punches and all of them are hard, even his jab. He throws in combinations on a regular basis. When he throws a three punch combo. All three punches has knockout power in them. Margarito was really easy to hit. He won a significant amount of his fights with his chin. I just don't think that his chin would have held up under a steady diet of uppercuts and combos from Crawford. I could be wrong, but that's what I think.

    I have to agree with this. I think a pressure fighter is the type to give Crawford problems, one who can fight on the inside and doesn't allow Crawford any distance. Porter and to a lesser extent Gamboa showed this against Crawford. Margarito and Williams are tough matchups for Crawford. I'd still roll with Bud winning but I think he would have a difficult time with both, far more difficult than he had against Spence.

    Crawford has a 100% KO percentage at Welterweight, including over a couple of elite guys that were never stopped before. I think it's time to stop questioning his power at WW.

    Exactly my friend . Yeah that was a Margarito that had been railroaded by a pack of lies then faced by a juiced to the gills Steroid Shane Mosely . Had his license snatched away for 2 years Because the CSAC SUSPECTED he might have been cheating but had no proof. Then faced with Pacquaio whose wraps were stacked because that's legal in Nevada & Texas now His eye was permanently damaged. Cotto STILL couldn't beat him legally the NY doc had to stop the fight to save Quitto Cotto QUITTING AGAIN !!!!! Look at Cottos face beaten just the same as the first time
    I KNOW Margarito was innocent all along so does any unbiased person with a brain

    ROFLMAO.
    A 100% Margarito would give Bud all he wanted & more it would be a barn burner You keep trying to discredit Margarito but you seem to forget The Tijuana Tornado is the MAN!! that caused Floyd to go into hysterics by merely walking up to him to ask " Why wont you fight me" ? Floyd Blustered & Blabbered like Daffy duck Ive never seen anyone look so terrified as Floyd was. He literally **** his pants & there were folks recording it for all the world to see. They couldn't beat him legally they had to railroad him
    Ive never claimed Antonio was TBE but what he was , was a FIGHTER!!!! an innocent FIGHTER!! & a damn good oneplus a nice guy too. What happened to him was a tragedy & a Big Black Eye for Boxing

    No way George But Naz Richardson, Steroid Mosely, the CSAC together ,certainly tried to didn't they
    A mans career & good name were tarnished without one iota of proof he'd done anything wrong except beat Quitto Cotto half to death & scaring Floyd so bad he messed his pants in front of an arena full of folks

    I was at BOTH the Santos fights in Puerto Rico & it wasn't Santos fists but his head butts that caused terrible cuts over Marg's eyes First fight was a N/C the second was awarded to Santos due to serious cuts over Margarito eyes caused by continual "accidental " head butts
