He was down on the cards against Crawford before the knockdowns? That don't sound right
Yes, he only won 1 round on any scorecard after the 5th. That fight was destined for either a KO or a lopsided decision, zero chance for a split decision tho despite Bud being a notorious slow starter

He has a bias towards Spence and Shawn , the one who's been in the ring with them, has a bias toward Bud it seems
Interesting he thinks the tougher fight was the one his son got a split decision in and landed some flashy head snapping shots in
and not the one he was down on the cards, getting broken down in the second half and dropped multiple times. He threw the towel in the easier fight, interesting
The suggested easier fight was a power play at stake between coach and fighter though. Hence the retirement post loss.

Either way it's a 50/50 fight. I'm leaning slightly towards Crawford, but that's not because i don't like Spence.

agreed but what this got to do with him saying it was easier? You think he trying downplay how tough the loss was cause of whatever him and Shawn had going on?
1.Shawn was more focused prepping for Errol.
2.The Bud fight you literally hear his corner saying you down and Bud is like WTF, and thats when Bud got Shawn out of there. This is all with Shawn having an unfocused Camp

I think so. That fight (Crawford v Porter) was going fine until it wasn't (then it went bad).

The Spence v Porter fight they were in the zone, locked in. Porter could have turned up 10 more times to that fight and not been as 'on' as he was on that night. But they still came up short.

In Kenny's mind he feels like they prolly could have got Crawford had Porter been 'on'. Coulda, woulda, shoulda, Crawford was step hooking/check hooking (whatever you wanna call it) again and again and it was only a matter of time.

I've seen this doing the rounds the last few months.

Nice technique, obviously the hip flexors/turn etc play a huge part in force/velocity to punch output.

But clearly thats a light ass big bag as far as big bags are considered. Look at how it moves with his lead hand.
Glasses started backing up when it got too loud..lol
