Drop back to 140 or move to 154 b/c he's going nowhere at WW.. his career has stalled.. he'll be 34 in a couple of months too.. & its not like he can't make 154 either, in 2017 he was weighing in at close to 180.. fk knows what it will be now.. since 2018 he has fought Khan, Brook & mean machine.. next up is career LW/LWW Zepeda.. a good fighter but unproven at the weight.. for a guy many say is boxings #1 that is poor.. Brook was a broken shell & Khan was last seen fighting Billy Dib .. that's where his career is at ..
Crawford needs to think outside the box instead of living inside Arum's box happy getting fed dog treats once every year Leave Arum & fight a youtuber or something. He'd honestly do better for himself. If he's content and happy, fine whatever it's his life. If he regrets it later in life TOUGH SH.
I rate Crawford, think he'd beat Spence but he's squandering what he has left of his prime. He needs to change something, because what he's doing is turning people off him.
I don't think Crawford cares as long as he gets a decent pay day. In fact I don't think I've ever seen any boxer care less about legacy. I don't watch his fight cos they are generally so one sided as to be pointless.
Crawford don't seem like a guy who chases money.....but he is definitely a guy who wants big fights to compete. If Arum can't deliver those fights he needs to look elsewhere.
I do not agree that Terence is bad and careless about legacy. Why? I know one guy ( not mentioned in this thread, I will never tell this, in business everyone does knows who he is ) who had took generous step aside money in order not to enforce his mandatory fight ordered by boxing org. Different weight class and different boxers not mentioned in this thread. Later when step aside contract term ended, he still enforced his mandatory status and with this forced this guy to vacate belt cos he was better boxer. He was better boxer but he was also better as a pig. The money he get was more than he had get if he had beated guy in a title fight and he really was better than this guy. For this boxer looks that did not had mattered number of belts he does have. Terence does not have such greatness " level "
Crawford is #3 or even # 4 on pound for pound list & his stock is dropping fast. winner of Spence vs Paquiao will knock him down a Peg, Tank if he wins against Barrios & jermell charlo should he win for undisputed will be climbing those ranks as well & closing that gap. *he is also lucky that teofimo is self destructing so “brilliantly”
He first needs to break away from the despicable Bob Arum. Then, he'll be able to get bigger fights and make much more money.
He’d still be stuck at no man’s land at 154 with most of the top fighters being at PBC, and I don’t think he can make 140 anymore. As long as his contract with Top Rank continues, and until a big showdown against Josh Taylor in UK takes place, keeping on fighting the best opponents who are willing to accept Arum’s pay day seems to be the only direction.
you think Tank demolishes Barrios then? yeah it could happen. I’m guessing you won’t give him much credit “When” he does in fact beat Barrios?
