    But I do know that Blue-Collar Joe Biden's presidency is freakishly strong, a 10000 pound gorilla of a presidency, full of pure raw presidential strength that no rival could match. Wasn't Trump supposed to school Biden? That's what everybody said. It's what the Trump guys on BF24 said. Trump was hyped as the next Andrew Jackson, but he lost, because Biden is weirdly strong with bizarre strength and ragdolled him in the debates and at the polling stations.

    The title is only prestigious as the man defending it. Defenses against Postol and Idongo didnt do much to boost the reputation of the 140 pound world title.

    You mean like rating Beterbiev, whose best win you downplayed above? Put in that context, the OP reads like six pars of projection...

    @tinman i really dont get your fascination with Beterbiev. Crawford isnt great in your eyes, but Beterbiev is? :thinking: Their resumes are about the same honestly, with a slight edge to Bud.

    I wonder what Mr. Casual fan with 20k post would say if Inoue went the distance with a gatekeeper, even dropping some rounds to him in a lackluster performance instead of beating a first balloot future HOFer who went on to destroy a top5 fighter in his division.

    There's a Dunning-Kruger scale (Joshua-Mayweather scale) of boxing knowledge displayed on this forum. A large chunk of posters find themselves in the top left hand corner. Most of us are somewhere in the middle - that's where I would place myself and you @tinman - but there are a few people who, from my experience, do appear to have a level of insight which is shaped by encyclopaedic knowledge of the sport, that I both don't possess or wish to possess. And of course, some people here have boxed - I presume a few of them at a very decent level.

    Dude, some people just know more about the sport than you or I. Nothing to be gained waving them away with a swoosh of a hand...

    He he he. That was a good night of boxing. Barrera was a warlord that night.

    Let's revisit it:

    The term casual is relative. Compared to posters like you and CST80 I'm a casual fan. And in comparison to the average casual fan I'm a super hardcore boxing fan.

    If the question is do I now think Crawford is a great fighter, the answer is absolutely yes.

    How the hell can Beterbiev be great, but not Crawford? :facepalm: Is Beterbiev still greater than Crawford now?
