In a hypothetical matchup between Crawford Lopez, who would you have as the favorite?

Might have to go with Bud. The experience and athleticism. Dude is basically a cat wearing boxing gloves. But Fimo only getting better. But really the problem is that I don’t equate none of this with P4P. To me, P4P is based on what you’ve accomplished, not your fantasy fights or potential future wins :comeon:

Teofimo is the best lightweight on the planet because he beat the best lightweight. Bud is the best welterweight because he beat Jeff Horne? :patrice:How could Bud be ranked higher? Because he unified 140 years ago? Even if we go there, Teofimo’s unification is much more impressive.

As it’s stands, personally, Teofimo >>> Bud

crawford was landing that half jab half hook a few times on brook in the fight.

i would call that punch more of a chop than jab or a hook. you can see how much crawford was whipping brook's head with it every time he caught him with one.

Is Pacquiao your #1? If not, why?

Made history; youngest boxer to unify all 4 belts in any and all divisions. If he becomes champion again at 140-147 (which I’m sure he will) he’s in the HOF 100%.

He did not unify all 4 belts, he's not undisputed and he's not a HOF yet. Chill tf out bro. He has more work to do. Alot more work.

Crawford easily if you mean now, still Crawford if we talking about 135. Lopez will struggle against someone who can box on the backfoot and has a lot longer reach than him, he won't be able to counter, will be forced to try to get inside, Bud times his lunges and knocks him our or beat him on points

Bud way too versatile for Teofimo...like you said it would be easy work. Even the version of Bud versus Gamboa would dominate him. I like Teofimo but Loma didn't even try to win the fight the first 6-7 rounds so it's hard to gauge still who Teofimo is at this point. Give him credit for the win but he still has a lot to prove. You put him in there with a live dog like Bud and he might fold based on what I saw in those later rounds with Loma and the fight with that Japanese fighter.

I think he proved a lot but Bud would be all bad for him stylistically.
