Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Don't Need Spence; I Been The Number One Guy In Division Since I Came Here

[Cool Scant]

Bud called him out for 3 years, a few times straight to his face. It was nothin but excuses from Spence during that time (need a belt, other side of the street, 70/30). Now Spence is cornered at this point as Ugas has to take part in the bs WBA mini tournament. I have a feeling he's gonna duck again

Since when is the A side demanding the larger split of the purse considered ducking? Not Spence fault Crawford PPV numbers are trash

Sorry Bud, but you beat the weakest guy with a title @ 147! You've never been #1 in the division! You're off to a good start after stopping Porter, so let's not get ******! You need Errol Spence! Now let's get it done!

Dang I guess Errol needs bud just as much then! Because besides from D. Garcia Spence hasn’t fought anybody else that’s much better than Crawfords WW opps. Bud will stop Danny if they fought at WW. Errol has to fight Crawford he’s got no excuses left. I’ve backed him previously in this debate. He’s become a joke and seems like he’s desperate to NOT fight Crawford.

Ducks of a feather....

This guy continue to duck Spence talking smack! I remember when he beat a drained Kell Brook and thought that was enough to prove himself. He don't get to claim P4P WW till he fights and beats the best WW then the talking begins. Spence been ready since last year with his multiple belts on the table so come get them and stop this bs. The fans want see it!!!!!!

As good as Crawford looked against Porter, he needs Spence. Crawford only proved that he deserves to be near the top of a P4P list. If he wants to just knock on the door of just being recognized as a household name, he needs to face and beat Spence. And there are still dilemmas in being nationally recognized. The first dilemma is there is no guarantee that Crawford will beat Spence. And second, Spence, himself, is no household name either. But sometimes folks that are not true sports/boxing fans know when someone is dominating their sport. If Crawford can beat Spence, his dominance and popularity can transcend the world of boxing, into the world of pop culture. It's when athletes dare to be great is when they become pop icons. Canelo is daring to be great for the most part. Crawford (or Spence) are in a position to do the same.

I partially agree. He don’t need Spence. He’s damaged goods. No point in them fighting. He don’t need Thurman either. He’s old and damaged. He don’t need Garcia either. He’s way past his prime.
He DID need those guys 3 years ago.
NOW, he needs to fight the young lions with NO NAMES for NO MONEY. What a fkn waste of great talent. We will NEVER know how good he would of been against a PRIME Spence, Thurman, Porter or Garcia. Oh well, I hope he just retires and lets the young kids step in like Ennis and Taylor.

Scareford immean crawford fight Ennis

I would love to see Crawford-Ennis!

Wtf is that BS??? “I don’t need Spence” is just another form of ducking. He could’ve just as easily said let’s make the fight, but he didn’t.

And I don’t buy into this “Spence is damaged goods” narrative. If Spence is truly damaged goods, let’s PROVE IT then by seeing Spence in the ring. He very well could be damaged goods, but you don’t know yet. You guys just outright say things.

I know he’s unproven but I see Boots overtaking the entire division in a few years.
