    Thurman and wilder don’t the rest are debatable, only aj loma and usyk are looking to fight the best available, but Crawford is a 3 weight champion who unified the light welterweight divison to become undisputed champion, only usyk can boast the undisputed and he achieved that in competition format.

    Crawford was hurt by midget Gamboa who was coming up. Rigo was better than Gamboa and was handled much easier.

    You've got to be kidding. Pac was robbed blind. I looked to give Horn every round I could and came up with 3 and that was pretty darn generous. You using the Horn fight as Crawford's resume' highlight says it all. Horn isn't/wasn't/never will be a top 10 WW.

    Nice lie. Gamboa had already fought at 135 in his previous fight. Also Crawford wasn't in his prime at the time and still beat the far more formidable Gamboa. At the age that Crawford fought Gamboa was around the age Loma fought Salido and took an L against Mr. Double Digit Losses. Gamboa > Rigo win easily, not even an argument. Now if the fight was at 122 right after the Donaire fight, that's a whole different story. Got em!

    Neither Crawford nor Spence has a real resume let's be honest.

    It's purely and simply the eyeball test. Nothing more , nothing less. Nothing wrong with that at all.

    But it's not on the level of Clenelo v. Cotto or Clenelo v. GGG in terms of truly accomplished fighters matching up. Hell, neither Spence nor Crawford ever achieved any major gold medals on the world stage as amateurs either now that I think of it.

    Rigo > gamboa and Mikey p4p and same size differences.

    Brookes is the best win of the 3, that’s better than linares, Khan or postol.

    But linares, walters, grj are a pretty decent line up.

    Grj p4p would be a serious threat at WW.
