So, for you TC is #1, and Spence is #2 pfp.....
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.

25 ? 100 ? You kidding me. I have to go now, see you tomorrow......

Why would I kid. Those guys suck. If Crawford was 6'1 210 with his freakish long arms he'd stomp a mudhole in Joshua.

He won't get him, if he does Thurman will get his ass kicked something fierce. Not even competitive.

Whenever I predict that Usyk might be dangerous for Joshua - the majority of posters, here on forum, consider me a fool.
Usyk and Crawford are on the very similar skillset level.
Who is a fool, really ?

Usyk doesn't have nearly the same snap and explosiveness to his punches, p4p, as Crawford does. Crawford regularly hurts people with single shots, Usyk doesn't, really.

While I do think the jury is still out on Usyk, given the WBSS, I think that he shows many of Hitman Jr's characteristics, including a proclivity to get into firefights when touched.

Usyk looks really impressive but the ATG, etc., claims are premature.

I have a great respect for Crawford....Spence and Usyk, too.....At least, I have an experienced eye.........

I don't think usyk is in Crawford's league.

This is true, I do not want to be misunderstood - TC and Usyk, both have the "something beyond".....I think there might be no more than ten recent fighters with this kind of boxing skills.............

I don't agree, we'll see soon enough.
