Terence Crawford is tired of the criticism surrounding his upcoming fight with David Avanesyan, as the long-reigning WBO welterweight world champion, now 35-years-old, is hearing more from the media about him not fighting Errol Spence Jr. than his fight itself.
Crawford, to me at least, is clearly one of the best of the era, now he just has to prove it to those who don’t believe. This lies the problem, many feel he isn’t trying hard enough, while others feel Crawford is being avoided.
“A lot of people, they can say whatever they want,” said Crawford on the DAZN Boxing Show, a morning boxing talk show. “They can tweet out that I haven't fought nobody. But all my career, I haven't seen anybody jumping for joy to fight Terence Crawford.”
His opponent, Avanesyan, has been struggling to get an opponent after his win over prospect Josh Kelly, who is being underrated, but Avanesyan's record consisting of a few losses hurt him in the global view of the world that the boxing general public.
“Everybody don't believe that I’m the best fighter in the world until I show them.”
Crawford, who fights December 10th, at home in Omaha, Nebraska will look to prove that once again on the December 10th, pay-per-view on BLK Prime.
