Comments Thread For: Spence, Crawford Agree To Terms, In Principle, For Undisputed Welterweight Championship

[SweetPbfAli]

Dont forget Ugas humiliated Manny Pacquiao nobody ever did that to Manny and give him a one sided beat down where he almost had Pacman out of there or quitting, Spence made Ugas cover up all night, it was similar to how Pac beat Clottey with non stop offense, Spence conditioning will be the key. Crawford has unorthodox skills with his switch hitting but can he take the brutal onslaught of Spence? we have yet to see him take punishment to the body and head by a pressure style smart fighter like Spence who just keeps coming at you but intelligently he will back out with a guard he won't make ****** moves like Crawford when he drops his hands and pulls back.

I think the part people are underrating is Bud's strength. He has a wrestling background and he can get nasty in the clinch and I don't think I've ever seen someone overpower him in a clinch. He has some defensive lapses but most of these guys do. Spence falls in a lot and could be susceptible to uppercuts but most fighters shell up when he goes on the offensive, especially with his body attack but he is wide open when he does that. Crawford loves to look for his shots in-between the opponents shots which is also why he gets clipped occasionally.

This fight is such an amazing contrast in styles and I have no dog in the race. I like both fighters a lot although I prefer Bud's style and adaptability slightly more. Also, Ugas hurt Spence a couple of times in that fight but the end result caused people to brush over it. And I'm not referring to the lapse when his mouthpiece came out. It was a moment before that and there were some body shots that got Errol's attention.

Absolutely agree with you they should stack the card make it an insane event for fans get them back into big time boxing events with great match ups all the way down the card

But we know they won't do that ..

Crawford, Spence and all their teams managers etc will take a huge slice of pie and with what's left they will stick a bunch of Mexican tomato cans and cab drivers vs their prospects

This is going to be a heavy WW card, or at least that's what they are trying to do.

Stanionis vs Crowley
Rashidi Ellis vs TBA

And then apparently Boots is going to be either on this undercard or on the Paul/Silva undercard.

I think they reschedule Matias vs Ponce for this card which is going to be a good fight.

The potential is definitely there for a ****er card.

Think how it would have gone pre-accident!

Pre-accident Spence was lax and a drunk.

TBC is going to prove why he is WAS #1. in the sport of boxing. The haters pro PBC clowns are shook.

Yea suuuuuuuuuuure. Once Spence attacks and break the body Duckford is getting stopped late

Think how it would have gone pre-accident!

I can just only imagine. It probably would have been a whole lot worse for Ugas that's for sure.

I thought Spence looked just fine in his last bout. Like Crawford he was fighting a counter puncher and ate a great deal of counters in the process because he was going for the TKO stoppage.

Therefore, he was willing to get hit, fight and exchange punches with Ugas in order to get the stoppage victory. However, he yet still broke Ugas in half by doubling him over with body shots.

In addition, to breaking both his nose, ribs and eye socket.

Think how it would have gone pre-accident!

This has the potential to be an exciting fight

They need to stack the undercard, this is a big chance for boxing to gain new fans

Make up for floyd/Pac

Absolutely right. Boots should be on the card. Maybe 1 or 2 other young guys with potential.

Ugas also goes into a shell and doesn't counter in between his opponents punches and he doesn't use his footwork in any meaningful way. It's much more complex that you're making it

Lets go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About DAAAAAMN time! Let’s get ready to rumble, ladies and gents! In all seriousness, I wouldn’t be surprised if it end up being a draw to set up the rematch. I think most likely Crawford will win, but I feel like Spence can pull it off as well. It’s really a 50/50 fight.
