He might be pound-for-pound number one in many people’s eyes, but Mike Tyson still thinks Terence Crawford has one thing left to prove.
Crawford is quite possibly the best fighter of his generation after recently claiming the undisputed welterweight title with an impressive knockout win over Errol Spence Jr back in July. It’s his second four-belt haul having also achieved that feat down at light-welterweight.
Right now he has a contracted rematch with Spence to think about but has also spoken of his desire to fight Jermell Charlo.
Speaking on the DAZN Boxing Show, former heavyweight wrecking ball Tyson was asked if Crawford was an all-time great who could have won in any era.
It was then put to him that Crawford has now also got the fan base to fill arenas and Tyson said he needs some harder fights to really go to the next level, at least financially.
Whoever ‘Bud’ fights next, it will not be in defense of his undisputed title having recently been stripped of the IBF championship.
