Terence Crawford Open To Facing Danny Garcia Next
Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 11/17/2014



By Edward Chaykovsky

WBO lightweight champion Terence Crawford (24-0, 17KOs) is ready and willing to move up and fight anyone at junior welterweight - including WBC/WBA champion Danny Garcia.

Crawford will return next Saturday night against mandatory challenger Raymundo Beltran (29-6-1, 17KOs) at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha, Nebraska.

The defense against Beltran is going to be the final fight for Crawford at 135-pounds. He plans to move up to junior welterweight in 2015.

Garcia (29-0, 17KOs) is regarding as the top fighter at the weight, but he himself is potentially moving up in weight in the near future.

"Yeah this is gonna be my last fight at 135-pounds, my plan is to move up to 140 and expand my horizons there. If that fight [with Danny Garcia] presents itself then yeah [I want it]. I’m willing and up for any challenge," Crawford told On The Ropes Boxing Radio . "It’s a tough weight class, there’s a lot of talent there being that it’s a stacked weight class. I’m just ready to get in there and mingle."

That would be a great fight brehs:lupe:


I would favor Terence Crawford.....but that would only mean Garcia would win since he always wins as the underdog:manny:

I like that fight, but is Danny still ok making 140?

I dont think so. He doesnt need to force it either, because alot of fighters lose fights simply just by trying to make weight (they end up draining themselves).

I would like that fight. Danny has the power to hurt Crawford, but Danny really struggles with people with boxing skills and speed. Great fight if Danny isn't ready for 147 yet, although the word is he is expected to move up sometime in 2015.

Crawford has already fought at 140 and handled Prescott. I don't need him to face some jobber again. After Beltran go straight to Swift.

I'd pick Crawford to win, but if he allows Garcia to land the type of shots Gamboa was landing for 3-4 rounds he could find himself on the deck with his nose and feet pointing to the ceiling.
