    Errol Spence Jr vs Terence Crawford Is Going to be.......

    a super competitive fight where there will be differing opinions on who won. As shown in this fight, Crawford will lose rounds to the top guys and Porter won four rounds on most scorecards through 9 and he does that to everyone. Only difference was that Crawford closed the show and got him out of there. So MUCH respect to him for that. But I don't see him getting Spence out of there. Spence is going to have pretty much the same reach as Crawford and that will be a technical fight where both fighters will have their moments. One thing I noticed is that Crawford just covers up on the inside and does not punch. Spence will be able to steal rounds off his activity and body enough. He also hits harder than Porter and will gain Crawford's respect. Both fighters can hurt each other and that will make them hesitant enough for going for it all. And to me Crawford clearly has more power off the southpaw stance and I'm not sure if he will have as much success against another fellow southpaw. Really curious to see what Crawford does there. Crawford to me is a bit more dynamic than Spence but he also pulls straight out and gets hit with flush shots and is economical to the point that the opponent can steal rounds off of him. Spence is also in punching position at all times and I think that's going get Crawford in trouble at times....Basically both have what it takes to beat the other and while most will be picking Crawford off the Porter win, I'm just not sure. This is and always has been a 50/50 fight to me.

    Ps, Ennis will end both of these fighters reigns if given the opportunity...Right RJJ-94-02=GOAT??? LOLLLL

    It depends on what Spence has left, he is in limbo at the moment with a long time out with major derailments to his career, he really needs a fight before fighting TC right of the bat.

      Last time we saw him against Danny, he looked just fine. I don't know if he has time to take tune up fights. I mean he was pretty much set to face Ugas in February before the WBA made their ruling.

        Terence busting out southpaw VS Spence

        means Errol gets a straighter path for his jab to land on T

          That’s why I'm interested to see what he does. Crawford is much better out of the southpaw stance but he's also not faced a southpaw like Spence in his recent run.

          Super intriguing fight.

            don't know, I need to see Spence Active and how he looks after that Broken Retina

            both at their best I see 50/50 but with everything Spence been through over the last couple of years I lean Crawford Heavily now, won't be easy for either though

              50-50 fight it will expose the absolute limits of both guys which is what we want to see.

              Crawford too sharp for Spence in the middle of the ring, Spence has to get Crawford on the ropes and push an uncomfortable pace. If he can do that without getting clipped he can win. Crawford has to put a dent in Spence to win in my opinion, otherwise Spence will build momentum and outwork him

                It’s the best fight in boxing. I think Crawford beats Spence by a close but clear decision. I really, really hope it happens in 2022.

                  Tough to gauge Spence right now. I don't think he looked fine against Danny - he looked fine given the circumstances but I don't think that was 100% Spence. He said himself it was 70%.

                  He seemed to be fading in that fight, never in much danger but I thought it was the first time I thought he looked distressed. Then news of an injury comes out and I have to think back to that distressed look. I don't know what's up with the eye but if it's comprised even a little bit, TC;s right hook (as a southpaw) is going to be trouble.

                    I prefer counterpunching over pressuring

                    but current prediction Errol takes this first fight

                    pressure works well against classy boxer-punchers

                    Plus Errol’s jab. He has the better jab
