Earlier in a video that resurfaced on the internet, Crawford can be seen talking about folks who are loud. The boxer claims that the loudest person in the room is someone who perhaps contributes the least. He says, “The loudest person in the room is always the softest person in the room. Because If you yelling, what you yelling for? I’m right here.”

The boxer further says that if someone’s trying to establish dominance by just being loud, he would rather deal with them alone and not let a soul know about it. He says, “So I’m the person to tell you- Let’s go. Let’s go into the room. Where ain’t nobody around. Let’s see who come out. That’s me.” Crawford has been one of those boxers who has always spoken through his prowess in the boxing ring. He has seldom engaged in bad-mouthing and instigating his opponents but shows them his worth by making his punches matter in the ring.
