    I think it's similar level

    Hagler didn't have Crawfords footwork or timing
    There's nothing in the ring Crawford can't do that Whitaker can

    The only thing Crawford would be lacking is possibly cutting off the ring which I doubt Whitaker was exceptional at

    Crawford is just a way more versatile fighter than Whitaker. Particularly offensively as a combination puncher and finisher

    Even if you think Whitaker was a better fighter than Crawford there's no way he's more versatile

    I think you just like arguing in all honestly hence you're other silly Fury/Chisora mental gymnastics recently.

    I'll be sure to give you a wide birth in future literally a waste of time trying to reason with you.

    You are not as high on Crawford as I am

    You picked Ennis to beat him (which is ok)

    Life goes on

    A shot Whittaker went the distance with a prime Tito. I doubt Crawford beats him. Whittaker at both weights.

    And an argument could be made that Tito is better than any version of Spe in

    It's nothing to do whether you're high on Crawford or not I like Crawford aswell. But to say he beat a 100 percent Spence who had neurological damage and had barely been active in 3 years is ludicrous.

    I never picked Ennis to beat anyone ? I've been one of Ennis's biggest detractors saying he gets hit way too much and will get found out at the highest level.

    I like Ennis but I'm certainly not as high on him as most people here.

    I remember seeing you say Ennis beats both Crawford and Spence but maybe it was someone else

    Spence wasn't 100 but Spence was still world class and a beat down like that from Crawford can't be overlooked

    Sometimes I wish Crawford wouldn't have beaten Spence so badly and won more competitively so he'd get more credit but in boxing sometimes the better you do the less credit you get
