Terence Crawford vs Hank Lundy

Post by handsofstone »

Lundy is a decent fighter with some good wins over Abril,Diaz and Olusegun plus a few close defeats to Postol,Herrera,Beltran and Dulorme,he's a solid fighter and will give it his all im sure but he's hardly the type of opponent im wanting to see Crawford in with these days,he's(Crawford) a 2 weight champ and has served his apprenticeship fighting solid pros before not to mention Terence has wins over Beltran and Dulorme

I dont know if Arum is struggling to find top level opposition for Crawford,its a pity the Pacquiao fight never came off,i'd strongly fancy Terence in that 1,im pretty certain Crawford will beat Lundy with ease so heres hoping after this defence we'll see Crawford in with the likes of Broner,Postol,Matthysse,Provodnikov and Troyanovski

Crawford is fvcking awesome, one of my favourite current fighters along with Kovalev & Golovkin. Agree it's a very underwhelming match-up, I'd give one of my kidneys to watch Crawford school Broner.

Lundy is a tough guy who will give his best, and could possibly take a few rounds, but he almost always fades late in the fight (and by almost always I mean always), and it often gets him stopped. I think that'll be the case here as well. Except for this time it'll be a much more one sided defeat for Lundy than usual.

I'm thinking Crawford via TKO in the 10th or 11th round.

Finally got round to watching this card and it was another conclusive win for Crawford,he's a famously slow starter or patient is a probably a better word to describe it but give Lundy his due,he started fast and took the fight to Terence and had a good 1st couple rounds while Bud had a look at his man but when Crawford did finally get to work then it was only a matter of time before he got Hank outta there,onwards and upwards and lets hope Crawford gets a fight against someone nearer his level,he's a special fighter though no doubt

2 things though,the refs eyes when giving Lundy a count after the KD will forever haunt me,secondly ive heard some shite commentators on US TV and some odd choices but Monte Barett might just take the biscuit,he was shockingly bad :lol:

Totally agree with your list there. In no particular order my top 5 are Crawford, GGG, Krusher, Gonzalez and Frampton (I'll forgive him for last weekends fight).

Same mate though I've not seen as much as him as the others. Typical no nonsense Russian. Him and Kovalev would be interesting. Think they fought in the ams?

Without looking too much into it,off the top of my head my top 5 would be the same

The ref looked like Art Serwano when Roy Jones knocked him senseless, he might have been trying to hypnotise Lundy.

He's not really fought anyone though. He's a beautiful boxer, but he's been a pro now for 8+ years and not had a marquee fight.

A bloated Gamboa, a points win over a battle weary Ricky Burns and now a former lightweight.

Light welter once had Tszyu, Judah, Hatton, Gatti, Mayweather all at the same time - and now it's a ghost division.

He had some great (is that the right word?) expressions during Lemieux-Rosado as well:
