This is why I always said Crawford had a better "resume". He has fought a way more varied of fighters and styles that have tested him and prepared him for who he is now...Unlike Spence who fought fighters tailored to his style that won't test him
Crawford on the other hand:
- Has fought better southpaws than Spence has fought (Felix Diaz, Indongo)
- Has fought power punchers (Prescott, Dulorme, Mean Machine)
- Has fought fighters with very fast hand and foot speed(Gamboa, Hank Lundy, Amir Khan, Porter)
- Has fought counter punchers (Benevidez, Mean Machine)
- Has fought boxers/movers (Postol, Kell Brook, Amir Khan)
- Has fought come-forward brawler fighters (Jeff Horn, Avanesyan)
When they say "he didn't fight anybody", it just means they are not American or have not been on Breakfast Club or Sway in the Morning
The reason why Spence "looked off" because he was completely shocked at the type of style that Crawford had. Shout of to Al Haymon for his amazing matchmaking of Spence's opponents

Hell nah. When you endure a beating like that you shouldn't even step foot in a boxing ring for 6 months. When guys get slept it's automatic 6 month suspension. And this was way worse than that.But you do agree that Spence shouldn't do the rematch in December ???
On top of that it wasn't close. Bud proved he's light years ahead of Spence in every category. Spence is not in his league. Them two should never share the ring ever again.

Bomac and the other dude in buds camp kept saying Spence was built up by the PBC hype train and he wasn't who everyone thought. I thought they were just trash talking. But after what happened they may be right.
The best guy Spence fought was a damaged Kell brook. He Didn't really have much experience with various styles. But this is what happens when you freeze other companies out and only make in house fights. You fukk up a fighters development.
The thing is...the way Crawford acted to not do the fight last year to fight a nobody was pitiful. He did not go out of his way to fight Ugas and Thurman or Ennis when they called him out. He let Arum basically call him a worthless monkey for a whole year. So there was no energy to get behind a black man who chose to act like that. Not in this lifetime...not after everything someone's grandparents have went through. That's more style than substance....Donald Trump type shyt.
Saying all that...he definitely was better prepared and won but in the eyes of certain fighters(Roy Jones, Boots Ennis), just don't seem like it was the Spence they've always seen
The opposite of Canelo Alvarez..bad training...shoulder injuries...too big...lolThat's why I respect Errol
"Men don't make excuses"
Pretty much just ethered his whole fanbase
Errol don't care about your bullshyt theories.

It was genius match making on that side
from lamont Peteron who had no business at 147
to Mikey Garcia, to Porter who people wrote off and was able to make Spence look bad revitalizing his own stock,
to Danny Garcia who can only beat tomatoes cans at 140
to Ugas who managed to decision a 42 yr old Pac that had been inactive for 2 years..
They were all the perfect opponents for Spence to look good against and dupe the fanbase into believing he was some generational ATG talent that was gonna somehow move up and beat Canelo
They really believed he was gonna walk through a man that KOd 9-10 straight opponents
We'll see..you're acting like Canelo is some kind of equal to Crawford, child...lolYou thought Spence could beat canelo. You're finished

We're on the blood path now
I think what people are overlooking or assuming is the impact of the first car crash and not the other 2, esp the one where the car was totaled. It's a wonder if this is related to his first car crash and a gradual decline in neurological functioning or if this was related to another car crash.
Duped Floyd Mayweather too when he beat him up..lolIt was genius match making on that side

I guess Ugas duped the entire world when he beat Crawford twice..when Danny Garcia beat Crawford. Crazy ass nyggas. Better resume? Mean Machine? Jeff Horn? Lol

PBC did an awesome job marketing their fighters
they along with youtubers convinced ppl (casuals) that their roster was elite and every other boxing promotion was substandard .They really had some nikkas fooled and when that gets exposed nikkas that have been believing those lies for years have a hard time coming to grasp the truth .we saw it with wilder and now we seeing it with Spence .
im glad I learned boxing before all the smoke ,mirrors and fraudulent behavior
