7/29/2023 Showtime PPV presents The King of Fighters: Errol 'The Truth' Spence Jr vs Terence 'Bud' Crawford(WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO/Ring/Lineal 147 titles)

[Knicksman20]

this is basically my prediction...crawford is at the tail end of his physical prime but his performance hasnt hit that drop off point yet..spence though has absorbed a lot of blunt force trauma on his body since that fight with porter...in his fights after porter and the wreck he's also done some funny things that is setting off some legit alarms in my head and made me go ...i dont think spence shook off all of that...if he does one of those "funny things" again crawford may brutally stop him at that...crawford is an elite finisher

You know I'm with you on all this. I think Bud stops him at this point in their careers. He's gonna give Spence different looks & angles from the orthodox & south paw positions. I don't think he'll have his high normal output of punches this fight

Yeah so not much. Spence makes a lot defensive mistakes and gets popped quite often. Almost every fighter has faced (Kell Brook, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter) has hit him clean. Crawford will not let him off the hook if that happens

Spence doesn't make as many mistakes as you think, given how offensive he is he should be getting hit more than he does. Crawford gets touched up by everyone too, he isn't some defensive wizard. I'm still waiting to hear what Crawford is gonna do to keep Spence off him.

one guy stopped porter
one guy didnt

Porters pops threw in the towel. but on the real bud has some power on the inside. His last two fights he’s landed some nice short shots that’s dropping guys.

i'll bet money this goes 12. neither one of them are getting stopped

I don't know bro. With how Spence has looked lately like Pat's said, the inactivity, & him getting his shyt rocked by Ugas.....if this was pre-accident Spence I'd lean more toward the decision for either

How much was yours? I'm gonna get the hotel/flight/car bundle....I don't do ubers and lyfts...

Flight was $500 through Southwest. Hotel $900 for the weekend at MGM Grand.

Crawford has the power to keep Spence off him
Crawford is an elite counter puncher to make Spence gun-shy and keep him off him

Is this a serious question?

Hit him clean and paid for it every time

Part of that is Spence not respecting certain opponent's powers and deciding to walk through it to inflict damage. We've seen he can be defensive when he wants to.

How did I know you'd quote me with your casual stanisms

 

[Loose]

EJ got this, terrance gives up too many rounds. I voted KO but it prob goes to decision I think

 

[O³ (O cubed)]

I'm not believing that this fight read made until they step into the ring.

Bud KOs Spence.
