The defeat by Crawford, perhaps harshly, undermines his legacy. In the eyes of his critics it will compound the defeat by Mayweather, despite how young he was, and provide a reminder that he was defeated by Bivol, and struggling mightily against Lara. They might even speak similarly about the defeat by Crawford – that he lost to a welterweight and, unlike we’ve come to expect of a Mexican, gave his titles up without much of a fight.
