    Crawford KO’ing Spence is a lowkey joke that will only be funny post-fight.

    Crawford has a longer reach and just as big.
    Not sure why people act like Bud is a tiny Welterweight and Spence is so huge they're more or less the same size.
    I wouldn't be surprised if Bud was actually a tiny bit bigger.

      Crawfords wearing all black also.
      No noticeable size difference. Both look the same size to me.

        crazy right?

        You realize spence was hurt by Ugas...a counter puncher?
        He hasn’t fought anyone at Welterweight though. It was a competitive fight with Shawn Porter . He knocked Shawn down but so did Errol. Shawn easily could have continued. There is no one on Crawford’s victim list that would give Spence any problems. Having said that I rate Crawford but I believe Spence will slow him down and enforce his will

          Crawford isn’t a small WW, no one said that. Pointing out that Spence will be the bigger man in the ring isn’t the same as saying Crawford is a small is small at 147.

          It’s no different than pointing out that Tyson Fury is bigger than Deontay Wilder. It doesn’t mean Wilder is a small HW who should go down to Cruiser. It just means that. That Tyson Fury is bigger than Deontay Wilder.

          Errol Spence is bigger than Terence Crawford. That’s all that means.

            Yeah, last time Spence got hurt, he motioned for a Time Out for the ref to get his gumshield.


            Probably the worse ****ing way a fighter COULD have responded.

              What I do expect is for Spence to counter Crawford and give him trouble all night. I think Spence wins by UD.
              Ugas had Spence hurt. A competent ref calls the KD instead of a time out.

              But we're talking Lawrence Cole here.

                Spence just wanted his mouthpiece. I'm not buying that he was anywhere near as hurt as you're implying.

                  Bud isn't a drunk who flies through windshields in his spare time though. I'd argue that might put a couple years on you.

                    sure looks hurt to me. And like I said, that's a KD.

                    EDIT - didn't sync the time proper. This site ****ing sucks

                      there's levels to this.
                      Mikey Garcia was a high enough level fighter that if he wants to go in there to just survive, avoid opening up at all, and go 12, he could do that.

                      Mikey Garcia is much better than Jose Benavidez Jr, the one-legged fighter who Crawford took 12 rounds to stop. He’s also better than Felix Diaz, the very small JWW who Crawford took 10 rounds to KO?

                      A lot of you clearly bought into the Crawford hype. This guy was afraid of Spence until Spence claimed his career has been cut short due to the car accident and doesn’t have much time left. He was all like “I don’t need him”. Before the car accident. Then afterward he was all for it. He also started calling out Jermell after two losses. He just seeks fights he thinks will be easy. But he will be mistaken with this one.
