Crawford vs Indongo for ALL 5 belts 08-19 !!!!

Post by imaioral »

Jesus Christ, an Undisputed-Undefeated bout for the 5 belts never seen in boxing history finally come! :bag: :yay:

* Last 5 belts undefeated-undisputed boxer never existed, closer with 4 belts was Joe Calzaghe 12 years ago.

I don't see Indongo giving much trouble with Crawford unless he hit an accurate and lucky shot as did vs Troyanovsky.

Should be a good fight, but Crawford will win decisively.

After this the only fight left for him at 140 is the Garcia/Broner winner. If that fight can't be made, he may as well move up to 147.

Agreed, the most probable to happen, then Crawford would have cleaned the weight class.

Garcia is the definite winner and he's going back to 35. Crawford would pick up indongo's IBF mandatory and that might be what pushes him to 47.

I think Indongo is a serious opponent. Crawford should win but I expect a competitive fight.

How did Indongo get three belts?? He beat Troyanovsky and Burns. Wait, Troyanovsky had 2 belts?? Where did he get those? He beat Cuenca. Wait, Cuenca had two belts?? Wait, Burns was a champ at 140?? How? He beat Michele Di Random for a vacant title. For Indongo having 3 belts, he pretty much went through the path of least resistance against various fighters who probably should've never been near a belt. It's almost like the universe has been conspiring for a long time to give him easy belts.

So, with that said, it's pretty surreal that this match-up, of all match-ups, would be our first all-undefeated, 5-belt unification fight ever, and it's between these two of all people. It's not Kovalev - Ward, Mayweather - Pacquiao, Hopkins - Wright, Hopkins - Calzaghe, Hopkins - DLH, or anything great like that. It's some elite guy and some marginally-proven, world class guy.

Anyways, I'm pretty jaded when it comes to boxing. So even if this is legit on the calendar, I'll believe there's a 5-belt champion when I actually see it. Until then, I'm assuming some belt gets stripped, some sanctioning fee doesn't get paid, someone gets injured in training camp, or perhaps April Fool's got moved ahead to June 30th.

The fact that it's on basic cable ESPN instead of premium HBO is great for the sport!! :clap:
