    It wasn`t a jab it was a destating right cross thrown from the southpaw position, Fouts stated on a vid I posted that the southpaw right cross is the best punch in boxing.

    Garcia is nowhere near Bud`s level.

    But Crawford can't jus whine about not getting any credit, he has to face actually ranked fighters first. Preferably in the top 5. Preferably Spence.

    Brook could well be good enough to be ranked, he looked pretty sharp early on, but we don't really know.

    it was not a right cross, he was using his lead hand.

    No, it was a jab, with some hook in it. There was only shoulder and arm in that punch.

    The finishing combo was brutal but wobbling him with a jab was crazy.

    If he beats Spence convincingly the opposite could feasibly be argued.

    You can throw a cross from the lead hand.

    If Brook sticks around WW there's some big fights for him in Garcia and Pacquiao.

    Both winnable.

    Up at LMW he'll get lit up by Charlo.

    He`s much better than Charlo.
