Before that I'd have loved to see T.C vs M. Garcia at 140 lbs but it is what it is.

Re: Crawford is moving up to 147 ww division!
Will Top Rank and ESPN pay the type of purses that the PBC guys expect in order to match them up against Terence Crawford?
If not, then we may have to wait a while before he engages in a decent fight (unless you call a potential bout against a past-his-prime version of Pacquiao as being "decent").

We'll see. I can't imagine anyone will be rushing to fight him. I guess Jesse Vargas will be the first ass whipping.Ossyrules wrote:Good move for Crawford and boxing

Opens 140 wide. No wonder there has been a Postol sighting.

Crawford will be the boss at 147, hes got everything he needs (skills wise) to become the main man in boxing IMO

Re: Crawford is moving up to 147 ww division!
I agree that TC is "something special", but I would never underrate Spence. Anyway, I think it would be 50/50 type of fight.SaadOffTheDeck wrote:littlepug wrote:Crawford will be the boss at 147, hes got everything he needs (skills wise) to become the main man in boxing IMOhe's the best by a solid margin imo.
I think that TC would beat Brook, Khan and D. Garcia easily. I have no idea for Thurman - one day I think it might be easy win for TC, another day I
think differently.

Re: Crawford is moving up to 147 ww division!
Probably, but to me welter is clearly the better division, historically and currently. They certainly won't be fighting him when he's not in their divisionSaadOffTheDeck wrote:We'll see.

So, for you TC is #1, and Spence is #2 pfp.....SaadOffTheDeck wrote:Both, actually, but I was speaking p4p.ValMar wrote:WW or pfp ?SaadOffTheDeck wrote: I have Spence #2.
I prefer HW, but you could be right....

Yes, Thurman #1 at ww. I'd have Joshua top 25, no other heavy in the top 100.ValMar wrote:So, for you TC is #1, and Spence is #2 pfp.....SaadOffTheDeck wrote:Both, actually, but I was speaking p4p.ValMar wrote:

As far as talent and skill Heavyweights are crap right now, and have been pretty much the entire time I've been watching.ValMar wrote:So, for you TC is #1, and Spence is #2 pfp.....SaadOffTheDeck wrote:Both, actually, but I was speaking p4p.ValMar wrote:

There's only been a few P4P Type talents in the Heavyweight division in all the years I've been following the sport, and none of 'em would've been Top 5 P4P at any point.
