    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.

      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.

        Its 50 50 fight for sure, Bud is a strong thats for sure, I remember the welters were clowning on him telling him he too small and wont have power, yet he came fro 135 and is now a full fledge welterweight who is likely the strongest of all the welters. Shawn Porter, Kell Brook, a lot of those guys got manhandled by him including Jeff Horn who is strong, Crawford was overpowering him. Spence isn't going to get into that type of fight though, he will pot shot stay upright and be sharp and has his eyes on the target its going to be an interesting fight for sure. I just think spence is going to prevail especially after what I seen with Ugas.

          I like the look of Rashidi another user on here sent me some of his fights he seems the dark horse of WW

          I just hope they are in competitive fights if they fill the card

                  never take "urban" people seriously. they always lie.

                  Mike Coppinger should know this at his big age.
