    I predicted Crawford by stoppage, and got ridiculed by Crawford haters before the fight. See Crawford can create power and leverage in his punches moving backward or on the "pull". He has a calmness under pressure, and once he gets his guy hurt he is a clinical finisher. He might not have the raw power to hit a stationary target as hard as Spence but he hits you with things you don't see because of his timing and angles.

    Needless to say these people didn't show their face after the fight, too many people here have strong opinions and dont really know what they are looking at.

      Here. Would eventually bum-rush into Crawford's counters with those wide looping hooks he throws. Was on the chat at Odeec's channel and he said Crawford would carry Porter for 12 rounds b/c they were friends in the amateurs as kids. The perfect analysis was spot on. No one could anticipate Shakur telling Crawford corner he was behind on the cards. 30 seconds later it was a stoppage. I think that sums it up.

        That's a much tougher deal, TC can do it though because of that explosive accuracy he has, but if it gets into later rounds I can also see Errol breaking TC down.

          Haven't seen one fighter to date break Crawford down let alone a guy who wouldn't stop Mikey (Crawford would have destroyed Mikey like he did Diaz) coming up from 135 or put a dent in Porter outside off catching him during one of his looping punch bum rush episodes to ink out a 10-8 round.

            The Spence that fought Ugas would have destroyed Mikey, Errol when he is in terminator mode is a lot different than the one wanting to outbox a guy, just as the TC that was wobbled by Gamboa is different than the TC that fought Porter, its wrong to pick a particular fight and say that's what he is, if that was the case Manny that got beat by ordinary fighters is not Manny that beat Cotto.

              Providing the fight happens in 6 or 8 months I will drop money on a Crawford stoppage. No knock on Spence I just feel Bud is capable of it.

                From the Pick Em last year the following posters picked Bud by KO

                Myself I went with Bud by clear Decision, knew he would outbox him but didn't think the stoppage was that likely.

                  Crawford stopped Porter and if Spence ever gets in the ring with him, he's gonna get slayed!
