Crawford has fought the best opposition in every division he's been in. Undisputed multiple times. Postol at 140 was swerved by Danny who he would've beaten easily. He has fake losses to Josh Taylor(undisputed at 140) and Jose Ramirez(unified champ).

The conversation about resume is hilarious because we all said back when he moved up to 147 that he would beat Prograis, Taylor, Ramirez easy and they benefit from him not being there anymore. Those guys would've never won belts if Crawford hadn't moved up.

Could his resume be a bit stronger? I guess. But boxing should be about fighting the best in and around your division, not cherry picking. Comparing Gervonta, who has NEVER ever fought the best opponents in any weight class or around them is disingenuous. Especially when Gervonta has been A-side for at least half a decade.

The only fight I think Crawford should have(and still should) approach is Ennis. Otherwise, he just fought the arguable best guy at 154(Madrimov), who can enhance his resume later on this year and for the rest of his career.

All we ask is the top fighters in every division to fight the best opponents in them. These guys fight twice a year, some of them once. That's not even asking much.

Boxing is def going to miss Crawford when he hangs them up as his skillset and demeanor is a rarity in boxing..certainly among American fighters...let's hope the ending doesn't involve him being outworked and dropped by..oh I don't know.. a 51 year old bald spot Cuban MW southpaw and quitting in his corner after avoiding real smoke at 154 due to struggling to hurt a one legged Mexican

Wait I didn't catch it on first read, this is hateful.

Don't know how true any of this is but they really dropped the ball with Prime.

T street is legit fa sho but it's been really difficult to understand PBC inner workings. It seems like everybody is under the impression that something ain't right over there. But no one really knows the issue.

I've always been critical of how they schedule their fighters but the thing that caught my eye was this Prime deal. This was a huge opportunity for boxing to shine on streaming platforms and they fukkin blew it.

Crazy that when they announced the Prime deal people were clowning the promised 12-14 cards as being low and questioned how guys were going stay active......and we ended up getting way less than that
