    Don't mean nothing, he stopped his last opponent and in a vicious manner. He has gotten a lot stronger and just because Lucas didn't stop Prov doesn't mean that Crawford won't. Your logic is truly flawed.

    I'd be happy to give him time if Top Rank didn't get a belt on him already. Once you have a belt you don't get time in a division, at least in my opinion.

    Hank Lundy who has featherfists was beating the hell out of Dulorme for the last 5 rounds of their fight, Dulorme has a legendary glass jaw Abregu shattered it and dropped him twice, so that means he may have similar or equal power with Abregu, Ruslan would have beheaded Dulorme. Crawford doesn't have close the power of Matthysse the round that Matthysse was teeing off at will against Ruslan I think it was the 6th most normal boxers would have been knocked out cold, Ruslan just stood there and was beaten senseless but didn't look even close to being dropped.

    :nod no way in hell crawford stops Ruslan unless Ruslan has taken incredibly severe damage from Lucas, but he didnt even get dropped so his jaw is still in tact. Ruslan doesn't take body shots taht well, but I still dont think crawford has a shot in hell, nor will he be looking for the ko.

    While I don't think Crawford would duck Matthysse it makes you wonder why these guys wanna fight a guy that's pretty much guaranteed to make you **** blood after words




    Psst..Lucas didn't even throw many body shots against Provo and dude was still peeing black

    Matthysse will be fighting for the vacant 140 lb. title, but I would pick him to knock Crawford out, but that fight will never happen..............I expectg Matthysse to win the 140 lb. title, Matthysse has already knock Peterson out in the 3rd round.......................should be champion..................

    He's only had one fight at 140 give him some time. He will fight one of them eventually.
