Crawford should win this fair and square, but there may be a possibility of Indongo getting jobbed on the cards. In a close fight it's unlikely he'll get the nod.

Re: Crawford vs Indongo for ALL 5 belts 08-19 !!!!
Gotta strongly fancy Crawford in this one, he has the experience against top fighters, its still hard to say how good Indongo actually is, a 1 round blowout of an unbeaten champ in Troyanovsky away from home then his first defence is a unification, again in his opponents backyard in which he won pretty much every round, did he catch Troya cold? Is it even that hard to outbox Burns over 12 rounds these days?
Either way what he's achieved is impressive and fair play to Crawford as well for fighting the no2 in the divison for a second time after Postol, I love Crawford's style he's pretty much the most complete boxer in boxing right now, there's maybe 3/5 other contenders but Crawford's definitely in the mix, he was excellent in breaking Diaz last time out, Felix was a mess when he was pulled out, I'm looking forward to seeing how Crawford deals with Indongo's style, he's different to anyone else he's fought before, freakishly tall, gangly awkward southpaw
Crawford pretty much always has the 1st round off to have a look, I wonder if he'll fight an aggressive fight to get on the inside and work the uppercuts and body shots, i'd have to give Indongo half a chance of success on the oustide with that reach
I don't think Crawford will have too much trouble in figuring Indongo out, I reckon this goes the distance with Crawford winning wide, great fight though

Sums it up nicely, though Indongo won't have much of a reach advantage if he has any. Crawford has crazy long arms.handsofstone wrote:Gotta strongly fancy Crawford in this one, he has the experience against top fighters, its still hard to say how good Indongo actually is, a 1 round blowout of an unbeaten champ in Troyanovsky away from home then his first defence is a unification, again in his opponents backyard in which he won pretty much every round, did he catch Troya cold?

BoxRec says 71.5 Indongo and 70 Crawford
Re: Crawford vs Indongo for ALL 5 belts 08-19 !!!!
We still don't know enough about Indongo to truly judge - he's sparked an unbeaten Troyanovsky in 40 seconds and beat Burns 120-108 in Glasgow in one sided fight - Burns is awful v Southpaws so that didn't help either.
Crawford since beating Burns in Glasgow has got better with every fight - Indongo will have to be pretty special indeed to beat Crawford.

Since Chris Eubank Jr won the super middleweight IBO title against Renold Quinlan. I think Jr has a lot of causal boxing fans. They've some how tricked the more unknowledgeable boxing fan into thinking he's an actual world champion.ALI wrote:Since when did the IBO carry any weight???
If he wins one of the big 4. I think he'll pop the IBO in the bin.

I'm the only one on the entire forum who thinks Indigo on points, but that's oké, I'm confident in it and I don't know that much about the babyleagues anyway.

You take issue with guys fighting guys their own size?
If so...handsofstone's response was very appropriate. What a bizarre way to feel.

Well, all of my friends are over 6 ft, but nearly all of the boxers in these leagues where I can't even remember the names of are usually much much shorter, sometimes I wonder where they get those people from, if I see them it's usually on holiday in poor countries.gilgamesh wrote:I'm not a Heavyweight.

I'd be willing to bet that Terence Crawford could kick all of your over 6 ft friends asses in a Boxing match.asdfjkl wrote:Well, all of my friends are over 6 ft, but nearly all of the boxers in these leagues where I can't even remember the names of are usually much much shorter, sometimes I wonder where they get those people from, if I see them it's usually on holiday in poor countries.gilgamesh wrote:I'm not a Heavyweight.

asjdasd is a size obsessed weirdo. There are some guys he hasn't even seen fight but rates highly just because they're tall. I'm surprised he's so anti-Wilder....the guy is 6'7"!

He's a light-welter and tall. Not exactly dwarf material.
Now go give your brother Tyrone a reach around Spunk Sponge.
