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)

[UpAndComing]

Honesty fukk the rematch. I rather see Bud fight Boots or Charlo

I can't stand to witness another 2 month promotion of delusional Spence fans saying "Oh man Spence was weight drained and just wasn't himself that night, just you wait!!!"

Let Spence heal from his wounds and close this chapter

.
did you see this? this was some solid insight:

Yea I seen it.. and he admits there wasn't a lack of preparation or commitment when he fought Bud

 

[IIVI]

Great watch. I love how level-headed dude is. Keeps it very realistic and I think that keeps things very grounded.
Saying things like 168 lbs. vs Canelo is too much means they're specifically focused on what's around them rather than get caught in hype.

It's a shame because I would have loved to support PBC as a Black owned Boxing promotional company. But the fukk shyt they have been doing with Crawford made me look at them sideways. Blatantly blackballing fighters
They handle their fighters like they are on the Chitlin Circuit, not really testing their top fighters. They rather keep belts than make money on big risk fights. Bigger risks make the most money, and they still don't understand that

On top using media/Youtube to spread propaganda. I am 100% sure Fannon and Big Ego are being paid by PBC.

Ill give it to @patscorpio because he been on PBC head for years about their match making. Only time (and im exaggerating lol) he was cool with how they were moving was when they use to have those FS1 cards on week day nights.

Tank say he ko's crawford.

He actually called out Julio Crawford…an Uber driver from Méjico

 

[Knicksman20]

i mean you are one of the ones that went pretty hard for spence and bashed crawford so you gotta get that work bro...it is what it is lol

I did a quick search & right off the bat the first 2 posts are this here lol

Fallacy? Who would argue they were better when they got to Crawford?!? I think Spence got the tougher Porter but not that much tougher that i would really argue someone down. Plus people were actually calling for this fight and the porters got savvy and forced the mandatory with modified split so I don't talk down on Crawford for this fight. Bud cant help kenny threw the towel.

But the kell brook shyt is retarded kell brook wasnt even a factor in the weightclass for years.. If he was weight drained for his weight class back then when he was reigning champ then how is that a point to bring up for crawford when he hadnt made welterweight for years and hadnt fought serious comp since spence?? A fight no one asked for at that.

Wish he would have fought thurman and/or ugas instead of explaining it away like advensyan and very washed kell brook meet any criteria that them two didnt.



Of course Spence would have a streak of all stoppages verse buds opps at 147 and I am not surprised yall automatically giving Crawford wins against everyone Spence fought cause its the same eye test against weak ass competition that got yall putting him over spence. If it goes to decision Ugas prob wins vs crawford and danny garcia would prob wobble Bud at some point in their fight. Crawford is down on the cards when he knocks guys out so if the opposition is durable and high level im not giving bud the automatic win. Who has crawford completely embarrassed for danny to think that would happen to him??

Sober Spence with a new mouthguard that fits his new chompers gonna run through crawford bum ass. Why i feel like Bud was trying to duck this out cause when he loses the bad resume shyt will be overblown cause his first real test outclassed him. Can't wait for the 29th, been arguing this match up for years and been put spence by stoppage on all my betting apps.

If bud lets this go inside too often it's a wrap.. he too prideful to get on that bike so he getting chewed up and stalked down. Imagine mean machine being more successful in there than spence..

When it comes to Boots we gotta be real, if Errol is cooked, PBC is betting the house on Boots, they aren't going to secrifice their potential 10 year Cash cow the same way TR wouldn't make Shakur fight a Bud equivalent (there isn't a good example) right now.

Boxing is a balancing act of Business ROI + Matchmaking + Legacy. Dudes be thinking all legacy and sometimes the shyt doesn't make sense business wise.

This exactly what I was telling people. A Crawford Boots fight don't really make any sense as a next fight for either. It's more than just fan fantasy matchups that go into these. PBC not gonna wanna potentially stall Boots ascension by throwing him in there with the toughest challenge too early before really having him tested against better competition and building his start power. And for Bud, who's on the backend of his career, that's really not big money fight like he should be chasing now to close out his career. High risk, low reward.

The Charlo fight was a perfect scenario for Bud if not for the Canelo situation; Natural bad blood, weight class he was looking to transition too, high profile opponent. Curious now to see what the next move will be for Crawford. Spence rematch may be the biggest option out even if I don't think it'll be much of a challenge and perhaps Spence need to sit his ass down for a minute.

In other words I don’t want him fighting Boots because he might lose. Okay got it.

This fight should be called "The Coronation"

 

[UpAndComing]

I had to do it to em. I had enough. Muthafukkers in here pretending Spence was sugar ray Leonard before the car accident ......shyt, that ugas fight was the best he ever looked if we're keeping it real. He just ran into a much better fighter. It's as simple as that. If this fight happened 5 years ago it woulda been the same exact outcome. There's a reason he took the "easy route".

@Dallas' 4 Eva said Errol Spence and Mayweather are mirror images of each other and fight the same

Young Floyd was actually aggressive as hell and brought the fight to his opponents behind a sharp jab and combinations coming in and out, more similar to how Errol Spence does it. At Welterweight is where he became an economical defensively minded fighter who stayed on his backfoot.

Crawford aint taking chances my guy, he be getting hit. It's boxing everyone gets hit, but to write off him getting hit as 'him taking chances' is being disingenuous.

dudes don't get match making lol. I'm not against Boots fighting Bud right now at all, but Bud right now is trying to seal his legacy and Boots does nothing for it.

From a match maker standpoint it makes sense to
1.Bud moves to 154, fights Tim which brings in the Aussie crowd (maybe even do the fight there on some Street fighter takeover shyt)
2.The leaves both Mel and Bud open for Spring, as regardless of the Canelo fight step aside shouldn't be an issue.
3.Boots is elevated, and I assume Dude who was gonna fight Ortiz can be elevated to WBA and have Boots vs him to Unify 147 (WBA + IBF)
4.Assuming Boots wins he could fight Thurman/Ugas winner to Unify WBC (unless they don't fukk over Cody Crowley).
5. Bud/Charlo Winner defends 154 undisputed 1 more time in fall.
6. If Boots takes care of business and assuming Charlo is out the picture you now have a 2025 big fight of Boots vs Bud at 154 and probably Buds last match. By then Boots would be established as that guy.

The only reason you put Boots in now is if you want to do the fight at discount + do it in Omaha.

Yeah, he compared Monster's footwork & cutting off the ring to Spence's after Fulton got beat & said they were similar too lol. I didn't even wanna touch that one & just let it go. When it came to Spence, he literally couldn't see the bad habits & flaws that were there to be exploited that I & others have pointed out for years

You know you got yo ASS whipped when Farrakhan commenting on it

I remember replying to that post like "Did you just compare Inuoe's elite skills in closing the gap to Spence ??"

His favorite line was "Ya'll dudes are crazy. I still can't see how Crawford is going to keep Spence off him"
