Yeah I just took as him basically saying Crawford is an unorthodox fighter that doesn’t use conventional boxing techniques and instead uses his athleticism to set his shyt up.

- Thread starter Dallas' 4 Eva
- Start date
Still crying..lol
Still crying?
Crawford is good at timing and can catch you between shots..that's what everyone who's licking him thinks is gonna happen..like he's gonna uppercut Spence when he's digging him and Spence is gonna go down like Jose Benavidez..lol. We'll see about that.

And that is 100% disrespect and you and the people who dapped this know Derrick James is on that BS
He's also on record of saying "Terence Crawford switching stances from southpaw to orthodox is overrated and doesn't mean anything when you face the top fighters"
He has a history of saying a lot of weird stuff about Crawford, which is odd to me

Bro you literally changed up his words/ put out misinformation.
He isn't wrong about Crawford. Bud has good boxing skill, but his athleticism and that mean streak he has is what makes him special.
If derrick James said the same thing about roy jones would you take offense to that?

Now you are twisting up my words for daps. Saying Terence Crawford is a better athlete than Boxer IS disrespect, and anyone who disagrees is disingenuous and does not watch Terence Crawford fights. He has way more to his game than athleticism
And comparing Crawford to Roy Jones shows you have not watched any of Crawford's fights outside of highlights. Keep exposing yourself

Not sure what he was trying to say but it's interesting how the narrative on these guys style has kinda switched leading up to the fight
couple years ago Bud was the better boxer and Errol would need to use his physicality to win the match.
Now Errol is the better technician and Bud will need to use his physical gifts to figure out a jab and high guard
I think Bud makes the best in fight adjustments since Floyd. Not sure how you reconcile that with the idea that he relies on his athleticism more than boxing IQ/ability. Dude's achilles heel is literally taking too long to get going because he uses the first couple rounds to figure out the opponents boxing , he's obviously a cerebral boxer

Breh exactly. I'm sitting here reading these narrative pushing comments like
Saying Crawford is more athletic than he is a Boxer/Thinker
It's like the other narrative that Errol Spence is just a pressure fighter that doesn't think and just throws nonstop punches. Dumbass comments going both ways

You 100 percent misquoted dude but I’m twisting your words up?
iv seen every bud fight since Gamboa.
No one is saying bud cant box, but in your mind brining up his athleticism/physical gifts is somehow disrespectful?

I'm sensing a lotta nervous Spence Stan energy in here 
Still trying to downplay buds greatness to feel more confident
It's ok. Y'all will find out soon enough bud is just a great as everybody said. And yes. He has just as much skill as athleticism. And more skill than Errol. And that will be shown on July 29.
