Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Really Don't Think It'll Damage My Legacy If Spence Fight Doesn't Happen

[Combat Talk Radio]

Spence ain't bigger fighter than your idol. Their fight night weights are on par. In fact, your idol is natural WW who can fight at MW. His fight night weights were around 154 when he was 135. His fight night weights are around 165 nowadays. His off days are almost 180.

Spence started at his natural weight. Your idol started as a giant at midgets' weight. That's all. It's pathetic I gotta explain your idol to you.

...so you're saying Crawford was a weight bully?

Arguably biggest weightbully of the decade. 135&140 lber Crawford. At least Spence started at his natural weight.

Trying to fight Charlo will be exact same scenario that we have now with Spence.
unless bub signs for a 3 fight deal or joins PBC this will just be same as Spence negotiations.
Bud just needs to join PBC like Manny did for a 3-5 fight deal to end his career.

In reply to the wording bud used "damage my legacy" put it this way however good Bud resume becomes, and whatever bud does hereonin, it will always be better with a win over spence on it.
A resume is better with as much depth as possible. So even if bud beats nelo, we can all dream, buds resume will still be better with a win over spence also.
So buds distorting the situation. Damaging legacy is a bit harsh, depending what bud achieved in future, but certainly weakening it

He has the same people as Spence except he's been in 3 divisions and don't have Danny Garcia on the books but hell everyone Spence fought he beat worst.

What does that have to do with passing up the chance to be the undisputed WW champion right now, it was a massive fight for all the marbles and TC walked away.

As I've said in many posts its more than names on paper, when you beat them and what form they were in at the time matters the most, Spence beat much better versions of common opponents which means more to me for brownie points, TC will always have the more dynamic finishes because thats his style, I don't know who is better I can see both guys winning as they are both elite fighters with a style that can cause the other loads of issues, that's why I want to see them fight, I have no favourite dog in this fight I like them both.

He has no legacy if he doesn’t fight Spence. I mean who is the best person he has fought? Floyd’s top 30 guys are all better than Crawford’s best opponent. His resume is a joke.

[real raw]

he's right. he doesn't have a legacy

[A.B Counterhooks]

Bud needs to double check the names on his resume so far...he absolutely needs to fight spence if he really talking bout 'legacy' , im getting sense bud really avoided fight the texan with this statement.

Current Keith Thurman would be his best win

I see it as a bird in the hand being the titles are there if you want them, its real and presented, to walk away is taking the bird in the bush hoping the opportunity comes around again.

I get that you think that. I think PBC never had any intention of putting the fight together. After 4 months Crawford thought the same way.

Thats cool you can think whatever you chose to, I know as much as you do Id just like to see more than Buds word, he has the evidence which would save all his other efforts to clear himself with the contract, but for some reason he doesn't want to show it. Im su****ious of that.
