That would be a hell of a breakthrough fight for Crawford even better than Gamboa

That's a fight Crawford's people will not be pursuing. Why derail the train against that PED cheat? Marquez is basically a 147 lb'er right now. Crawford is a light in the ass 140.

Gamboa was working with the same "conditioning coach" as Marquez, but you're right Marquez does pose a threat. But what about the reward from beating Marquez? I actually think Marquez would be more reluctant to take this match, he seems to want a 147 strap more than anything else these days.

Marquez could absolutely hurt Crawford. He's a roided freak and Crawford
is a string bean.

Roided freak? JMM has not even weighed the full 147 yet that I know of. Just because he KO'd Manny doesn't mean he is on roids. He took the same tests his opponents have....or am I wrong about that?

Oh yes because JMM is a clean bc he never failed a piss test! Ya serious?! Guy spent his career as a soft looking normal dude than turns 37 and looks like a shredded freak once he hooks up
with Heredia. Clean, my ass.

There's a reason guys who routinely pass piss tests (Berto, Peterson) have failed the only random blood test they ever took. Because the random blood tests, ya know, actually work.

Let's see how Floyd looks in his next fight with Ariza's "help". Won't be surprised if he fights for 5 more years :bag:

Crawford could take this.

He'd make Marquez come to him and play counter puncher to the counter puncher i think. Would be a great fight with plenty of momentum swings but i firmly believe TC could win a close but clear decision.

No way Crawford makes Marquez come to him, the old guy dictates who does what in this if it ever happens

VADA's the only testing I trust, as a layman. USADA have previous trying to cover up for vested interests. Doesn't really inspire confidence when a dude can get caught for a 1980s steroid & the promoter/backers can just get them retested again & again until they get the result that they want.

I think Crawford is a horrible style matchup for Marquez at any point in JMM's career.

Why?

Crawford has as much in ring patience as any talent ive seen for a while.

He would win this off the back foot.
