    Crawford should fight Thurman, or at least fight Porter...................

    Give him a chance. Crawford cleaned out the 140 lb division . And Horn
    is obligated to fight him next. That was always the plan. Crawford is
    after the mega pay days and its better he fights Jeff Horn and if he wins
    then he will be able to command even more money for Spence and Thurman
    who so far barely fight at the moment anyway.

    Both Garcias could make 140 and so where were they? Watch how "good" 140 gets now that Crawford is gone.

    Once again the Black fighter is held to a different standard.
    Loma beats up a guy 2 weights below him and he is praised like Jesus Christ returned.
    Crawford unify's 140 and moves up to fight a guy that beat 1st round HOF fighter, Manny Pacquiao, and he needs to prove something to some fat, melancholic, keyboard warrior that's afraid to leave his UK apartment.
    Tyson Fury is a goat alright.

    Well Danny Garcia moved up to 147 in '14 so he's been there for 3 going on 4 years.

    Crawford only moved up to 140 at the end of '14 so I don't see how you can hold that against Garcia, especially when he moved up into a stronger division.

    As for Mikey he was too busy pissing about with his career.

    As for the state of 140 it's still weak regardless of ol' Tezza departing, the fact that Garcia is there now just fills the void of Tezza and Lipinets still has the jury out regarding how his career pans out.

    140 is not in bad shape. A lot of young fighters coming up. The state of the division definitely has nothing to do with Crawdaddy. He mastered it and moved on looking for new challenges. Still good fighters there, you got Granados, Prograis, Mikey, Imam, Figueroa, Indongo is still viable, Also Easter and Beltran might move up. For sure Easter.

    He is a little guy, he's 5'8. He's Horn's mandatory, and Spence already has a fight scheduled. He's moving up to his 3rd weight class, and just unified against a 6'1 guy.

    “Great” is just a perception that doesn’t mean much. It’s about winning championships and making money.

    The fans wanted to see Lomachenko fight Rigo, they said that Lomachenko had no chance against Rigo, Danny Garcia picked Rigo to knock Lomachenko out, so did Angel Garcia, Roberto Duran, Dontae's YouTube boxing video prediction, almost everyone, even Garcia, most of YouTube, boxing forums, Rigo fans said that Rigo would break Lomachenko's jaw, Rigo had bone crushing power, was faster, more skilled, etc., but after the fight, they complain that Rigo was too small?! LOL!
