Terence Crawford painted a masterpiece in decimating Felix Diaz

If it is possible to improve upon greatness, Terence Crawford did just that Saturday at Madison Square Garden in a 10th-round stoppage of 2008 Olympic gold medalist Felix Diaz.

Crawford (31-0, 22 KOs) was brilliant from start to finish in taking apart the rugged Dominican, who is thick and skilled and powerful, but also no match for someone of Crawford’s ilk.

There are few now around 140 or 147 pounds who are in his league. Crawford retained the WBC-WBO super lightweight belts with the win. There is no one of his caliber left in his division, though his promoter, Top Rank, is likely to slow play things and put him in a title unification bout with IBF-WBA champion Julius Indongo.

Indongo is 22-0 with 11 knockouts and is a perfectly decent fighter. But perfectly decent fighters have next-to-no chance against Crawford.
