    The very least Terence Crawford can do is beat Errol Spence by stoppage. The guy publicly stated his time in boxing is short. His days are numbered. He said the accident caused this.

    Of course Crawford saw that interview and immediately became aggressive in calling out Spence.

    Crawford has always been opportunistic. He fought Jeff Horn coming off the robbery win vs Pacquiao, where Pacquiao almost killed him, and claimed a win over Horn was him beating the man who beat the man.

    He ducked the prime welterweights by signing with TR multiple times: knowing PBC and TR don’t really do business. He is now going after damaged goods welterweights and ducking out of having to fight Jarron Ennis by calling out Jermell Charlo who has looked like sh/t multiple times at 154.

    Crawford is opportunistic. His fanbase of 10 posters on here know it too. But they are trying to hype up a win over Spence despite Spence publicly stating his injuries have caused his career to have to come to an end very soon.
    I don't like Bud and think he's a cherry picker, you can ask TernceBudCharlo but if he fought and beat Spence and Charlo it would be undeniable

        Undeniable that he picked the right opponents at the right time.

          Because he is THAT good even though he admits having just a few more fights in him.

          It’s like Mayweather being 36-40 and beating Canelo, Maidana, and Pacquiao. He was THAT good.

            If you look deeply into Crawford’s resume it’s actually very solid. He beat a lot of guys ranked top 10, top 5 when he beat them. I’ll use independent ratings like Ring to prove it:

            Burns #4
            Beltran #2
            Dulorme #10
            Postol #1
            Indongo #5
            Horn #8
            Kavaliauskas #10
            Porter #4

            To put it in perspective. How many current fighters have 8 top 10 wins? Or 5 top 5 wins?

            Yeah the names aren’t household but they were the best guys in the division at 135 and 140. His 147 run has been underwhelming but Porter was a huge step in the right direction and I’m optimistic the Spence fight happens at the end of the year. To call his resume “awful” is ludicrous.




            For a supposed P4P #1, it is awful.

              Nobody can deny it then, anyone who says Spence is washed and a cherry pick is either a troll or has an agenda

                Then how is Bud beating someone THAT good not a big deal?

                And how is Terence Crawford a bum of Bud is that good? What did Spence do that was so much more impressive? They are both THAT good, not just spence.

                  See that's what you don't understand about the business of boxing. Nobody "picks" opponents except for Canelo Alvarez because he is his own boss. Fighters like Bud, their promoters just call them and tell them who to fight.

                    Pound for pound Crawford has a deeper resume than Tyson Fury.

                      Never, but he’s never fought anyone with the skillset as, Bivol, Lara, Mayweather.
