Floyd Mayweather and Terrence Crawford The pair have been circling the American boxing scene for the past few decades, but Tim Bradley believes an active boxer could outshine the talented duo.

Mayweather became the face of the sport in the 2000s and 2010s, becoming a five-weight world champion and retiring with a perfect 50-0 record.

After Mayweather hung up the gloves, Crawford eventually took over the title and became the sport’s No. 1 pound-for-pound, undisputed winner in three weight divisions after beating the likes of Canelo Alvarez and Errol Spence.

Crawford is also retired now, having finished his career undefeated in 42 fights, which is difficult for any boxer. Reaching the heights achieved by “Bud” and Mayweather.

Two-weight world champion Bradley believes there is one man who can do better, Revealed on his YouTube channel He thinks Shakur Stevenson is more popular than the iconic duo.

“I think Shakur can be the face of American boxing that we’ve always had. We have Floyd Mayweather and I think he can be as popular as Floyd Mayweather or even more popular than Floyd Mayweather.”

“It’s nothing against Terrence, he was a great fighter and will always be remembered. He completely changed the game and he did that, but I think Shakur would have done the same and I think he would have been more popular and more respected than Terrence Crawford. It’s a shame, but that’s what it is.”

Stevenson became four-weight world champion last month With a win over WBO super lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez, the 28-year-old still has many years left to achieve more in the sport.
