It goes to show how good Spence is because Brook was a seasoned,Spence absolutely wasn't ready and had no professional big fights under his belt. He served a beat down and it would've been the same results if Brook had no injuries.

Ummm nope. Spence was arguably losing that fight before a weight drained Brook faded and then got injured.

ill believe it when i see it.

probably going with the one of them "got covid" like a week before the fight and they find some lyft driver from poland to stand in to fight.

So they're gonna call yer number to stand in then?

Yeah and most people thought the much bigger De La Hoya would smoke the tiny Pacman. It's great having the benefit of hindsight isn't it?

Lol. Oscar had also lost 3 of his last 6 fights, and was clearly not "prime."

Terence, like Manny, was fighting the over-the-hill guy, coming down in weight.

That Oscar-Manny fight was over 10 years ago. You're telling me, the fools who picked Oscar hadn't learned anything before Crawford fought Brook?

Great way to deflect, but the fact is, Crawford like Manny, caught a faded former champion coming down to a weight class they hadn't fought at in years. You're impressed, I'm not..

Why would he duck? Porter is a good opponent but certainly someone that Bud should be able to beat with his skills and ring IQ. Some of you people have nothing better to do than hope that a good fight doesn't happen. SMH.

I bolded the most important word for you.

Unfortunately, Crawford hasn't taken a risk until now at 147, so we have no way of validating your theory. Plus we also know that Crawford's temper gets in the way of his ring IQ every fight, which is how the unmotivated ghost of Kell Brook was able to shut out four rounds AND Crawford's eye.

Meanwhile, Porter's done nothing but fight at 154 and 147 and he's fought everyone in the upper echelon besides Manny at this point. So we know what he is.
