Terence Crawford is only an inch maybe an inch and half and has a 2 inch reach advantage. He’s probably a better boxer than Spence and can match with him athletically. Spence is bigger and stronger but as a Southpaw, the most intriguing aspect of this fight is Bud can go both ways :dame:

Crawford seems to go in for the Kill when he’s Orthodox but fighting as a Southpaw might confuse EJ. There’s were a few moments where I didn’t like how Spence reacted to Garcia’s shots. The quickness between Crawford and Garcia is night and day.

Brook was tagging Crawford a lot with the jab and Spence’s jab is one of the best in the business. Bud definitely can get hurt if he isn’t careful. Spence just keeps looking better against MUCH better competition and looks damn near complete but I still lean towards Bud if it happens before hes 35 or loses a step.

Bud and his stans have way more smoke for Spence than they do for Arum. Lied to him about getting the Pac fight to get him to re-sign, never happened, threw him in there with a bunch of cats who name you can't spell, go on record saying he's upside down on his investment.....and yet the onus to get off your ass and make something shake is on Spence?!?!?! Y'all not tired of the "fighter X is scared to fight Top Rank's boogeyman" hustle Arum keep running on y'all?


I ain't Bud stan nikka. You never heard me say once that Bud would beat Spence or vice versa, I just want to see that fight. I'm a fan of both cuz I feel like they both hardbody and will fight anyone. Now they just need to fight each other so we can find out who the top welterweight is.

If you want to see the fight and you're not a Bud stan, then why are you going so hard at Spence for not making the fight when Bud the one fighting a round robin of guys with 8 consonants in their name? Spence doing everything in his power to build his own legacy. He not responsible for building Bud's legacy AND to do Arum's promotional job for them.

Don't care how you slice it, Bud is not in position to call any shots. Get in line and earn it. They not going anywhere. Both are in their early 30's. Once Bud contract is up, we'll see where his heart is at. Until then, stop trying to save Bud with all this insinuation that he's being ducked.

instead of asking why Spence doesn't fight Crawford? He called Spence out, numerous times, and has asked to fight him. Instead of bringing up other PBC dudes, ask Spence why he hasn't fought Crawford.

.

Spence stans are basically using Porter, Garcia, etc as human shields so they don't have to answer that question. Spence barely shows any interest in fighting Crawford and it's no justifiable reason. At this point I want Bud to leave TR just to get the Arum excuse out the equation. Someone bought up a good point that Bud going to PBC is no guarantee to make the fight happen as we see Spence playing games with Thurman begging to fight him. There are plenty of PBC fighters who can't get fights with other PBC fighters (damn near GRJ whole career) so this shyt is way more nuanced than "bu bu but Arum" . When guys want fights to happen they happen and when they don't they don't. really that simple. Arum and Haymon have worked together multiple times. The fight will never happen with Spence asking for crazy splits or saying he would never go to a Bud fight and he don't need him and all this shyt. He know that, we know that. Don't matter if Bud at TR or somewhere else if that's dude attitude

When was this:mjlol:

.

When he got rocked by Porter :mjtf:
Are you bout to say Spence never got backed up, rocked, or went into a shell against pillow fist Porter?

Crawford is top 5 p4p and has a belt. There is no reason not to fight him., The goal of any fighter should be to be the undisputed champion.

That's why I don't have a problem with what Crawford is doing. He is trying to fight champions. When has it been a bad thing to want to fight other champions. He wants Pac or Spence and that's completely understandable, especially at his age.

He can want who he wants. He has to earn it. He at 147, so miss me with what he accomplished beforehand. He has to get in line. Fight his mandatory like he did with Mean Machine.
