    Will Spence vs Crawford be similar to Lara vs Hurd

    I just got done watching Lara and Hurd (fight of the year) and It had me thinking about a potential bout between Crawford and Spence. Like Lara, Crawford is a great southpaw, with great timing and counterpunching. And like Hurd, Spence is a great pressure fighter with an elite jab, chin, and inside game. Now, Crawford may be the better fighter but Lara is the more technical boxer ( better footwork, jab, and a little better at judging distance and can fight in all ranges). And Spence is basically Hurd 2.0 with more power and he does everything at a higher level than Hurd. I could see this fight ending very similar with Crawford trying to fight Spence but in the end endurance, pressure, consistent jab, strength, and power will win the day.

    I hope so!

    This could also end very badly for Spence!

    Must see TV if it ever happens.

        Hate to disrespect any pro boxer but Hurd is garbage compared to Spence man. Spence can box as well as anyone and doesn’t fold when someone tries to push him back.

            Spence is a level above Hurd. I don't disagree.

              Crawford can be dragged into a fire fight.

              This is a great match up and can't wait.

                Which is not smart since spence is the better inside fighter with the better jab. Plus, Crawford can be hit and this is the first time he will be in there with someone who is bigger, stronger, and just as skilled (Spence has the better defense, jab, inside fighting, and chin).

                  I agree with you 100%

                  I pick Spence to win

                    Nice post brother
                    Spence after his car crash kinda isn’t the same.

                    a fight I’m definitely in on, but I wonder if his doctors
                    think he’s mentally fit!
