The Official Terence Crawford vs Raymundo Beltran Thread

[Newzz]

you like that DeMarco win but to me, I think it was overrated. Valero put DeMarco in a meat grinder.
No shame in losing to Valero...but DeMarco's best win is Linares....who has been stopped 2 other times in a total of 3 rounds. DeMarco is a good fighter but he is not necessarily better than Beltran.

valero-demarco was gruesome to watch

Valero was a BEAST though brehs

Too bad he was fukked up in the head, because I knew he was gonna be a great one

Finally got to see it... Great impressive win for Crawford. Would love to see him and Pac go at it.. Very interesting match up right there

I love Crawford, and would love to see him beat Pac but let's keep it reality breh............ he ain't nowhere near ready to fight Pacquiao yet. I enjoyed his performance last night too, but he left himself open quite a few times. He couldn't afford to do that with Pac and he's not polished enough yet to not do that with Pac.

How ready does he have to be though?? He's looked great in his last 3 fights against great opponents. If he gets an opportunity to fight Pac I think he should push for it

For financial reasons I'd say he should push for it if the opportunity can be made. Ya know, go get that money, I wouldn't blame him. Still he's moving up to 140 for the first time, and even with Manny coming down he's still a whole nuther level than Gamboa, Beltran , and that kid from Belfast. I would much rather see him get his feet wet first before taking a plunge. I'D love to see him spank Garcia.

There's no other fighter that will prepare him for Pacquiao. If he's not ready now, he'll never be... He has to sign to Al if he wants to fight Swift or AB..Which means he'll never get a shot at Pac since Haymon hoards his fighters

I kind of wish Terrance had went to the body more. Terrance looked best last night when he was the aggressor; Beltran looked extremely vulnerable when he was cornered. I think Crawford could have got the KO had he broke down his body, thereby enabling him to be more aggressive

Pacq vs Crawford isn't a good fight.

 

[King P]

T-Craw is the real deal. As of now, I'm very likely penciling him as fighter of the year.

I think his boxing ability will give alot of fighters problems at 140. As long as his chin can hold up.

Crawford/Broner is a toss up. Broner is bigger and has more power, but his low punch output would work against him. He could possibly hurt Crawford, but T-Craw's boxing abilities could give Broner problems.

Either way, I see a bright future for Crawford. Hopefully they don't rush him in with Manny though

"Great" opponents?

 

[LeVraiPapi]

I firmly disagree that Crawford-Gamboa deserves a spot as FOY. Crawford should take his bytch ass to welter where the real sharks at. Dude looked like a freaking LMW fighting Gamboa

the hell do you have against t-craw breh?

 

[yawn]

Ain't nobody beating Crawford at lw right now. At 140 I could see him on a pac undercard against someone like vargas or humberto soto, and then a fight against pac after that.

As a Crawford supporter I have to disagree with the bolded but you did bring up an interesting scenario
Wouldn't it be great if Mikey were forced to face Crawford on a Pac undercard and the winner gets a Pac fight

you think Crawford is a low risk opponent for Pac?

As the only other Crawford supporter here I'm surprised you don't feel the same way

Crawford doesn't have the right temperament to defeat Pac.

He let's the fight come to him, he fights off the back foot, allowed the much smaller man in Gamboa to force him back and he doesn't go for the KO

 

[seemorecizzy]

anyone got a link to the crawford fight?
im still over the gamboa fight

 

[LeVraiPapi]

the hell do you have against t-craw breh?

I m just spitting facts here breh. He's just another Top Rank product which is why you fanboying, but he needs to move up and fight people his own damn weight. He's 09-12 Canelo status to me now
