People said he wasn't impressive against Ponce De Leon and Malignaggi so it seemed like only a matter of time.. We haven't had a displeasing Crawford fight yet.
Based off what he didn't even get hit last night to rate his chin at 140. Lucas and even Peterson are more skilled than dolorme and if The 130 pound Gamboa can hurt Crawford you bet your sweet **** Lucas can
dulorme was 147 that move to down to 140 and crawford was 135 moving up to 140. that being said crawford to me is a natural 140 pounder and it was hard for him to make 135. so to me 140 is his best weight class. as far as being the next broner i think he will be as far as a 3 time world in 3 weight classes. broner and crawford are the best at 140.
Unlike Broner, the number 1 thing you have to understand is that Crawford doesn't just have a plan B. He has a C, D, and E. Watching that Gamboa fight had me mesmerized. He is nothing like Broner, and he will be very successful at 140 and if he eases into 147 properly he could be something very very special.
Exactly Crawford is a thinking man's fighter he has very high ring IQ which is refreshing to see when so many guys don't.
