Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson Doesn't Believe Spence-Crawford Is a 50/50 Clash, Siding With Crawford

[peplz]

I think he beats neither.He is not seasoned enough in my opinion. He hasn’t fought anyone even at European level talk less World level. Bags of potential though

Breidis Prescott, Ricky Burns, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Ray Beltran, Viktor Postol, Julius Ndongo, Jeff Horn, Egis Kavaliauskas, Kell Brook and Shawn Porter are all world level opponents. He just made them look ordinary.

They're both great fighters. But Spence has been knocked cold already. Cold, cold, memory loss, teeth gone and everything. How can that not matter? He's not fighting slow, thumper Danny Garcia, smaller Mikey, or average power Ugas. He's fighting Bud, someone who is extremely sharp and smart. Bud can make split second adjustments, even mid-punch. And he can crack for real. Errol is going to get hit with shocking power, snappy, accurate pin-point punches, things he can't see coming. His nervous system is gonna show that car wreck damage, oh he's gonna do the stanky leg for real now. All that drinking alcohol is gonna come back to bite his narrow ass cheeks in this fight. Errol's conditioning isn't a question. He trains harder than most fighters. But his organs, his brain, his nervous system, will all get shocked on fight night. Errol is one helluva fighter. He's not Amir Khan. He'll never quit like a yellow dog, but he'll be separated from his senses after putting up a tremendous battle. My prediction KO 11.

And Boots has definitely never faced a “real opponent” but somehow the things you said about Crawford don’t apply to him. And Spence’s two best victories were against Kell Brook and Shawn Porter who Crawford defeated much easier moving up in weight and not being a career long welterweight like Errol Spence.

It applies to both Boots & Crawford. If you're going off the eye test, both Boots and Crawford are better fighters than Spence! We won't know until they fight Spence! The Kell Brook Spence fought is NOT the Brook that Crawford fought! Not even close!

Lmfao what elite fighters has Spencer faced? Please tell me I need a good laugh

I didn't say "Elite," I said "Real!" If you want a laugh, go see Crawford's resume at 147! Now that's funny!

Lol "real" yeah real ridiculous. Spencer has yet to have any elite wins and yet your hyping up booty ennis for absolutely no reason. That dude is just laying around waiting to be given a belt. He's a bum

"Smack dab in the middle of their primes"?? Huh? Both these guys have been on the wrong side of 30 for years now, and Crawford is closer to 40 than he is 30. I don't care what their record says, they are not as good as they were 5 years ago, and Crawford is not as good as he was 7 or 8 years ago. A man's physical prime is in his mid 20's. In terms of performance, an athlete is probably at his best in his late 20's. That's when the fast twitchies are still there, hanging on, but it's also combined with years more wisdom and experience than when they are in their mid 20's. These two guys are certainly not "smack dab" in the middle.

Whilst I don’t disagree with the fact that he won against most his opponents relatively comfortably but he fought Kell brook when he was washed and Shawn Porter fight was competitive until Shawn got knocked down similar to when he got put in his arse by both Spence and Broner but this time he chose to bow out. Ricky Burns ,Jeff Horn , Bredis Prescott, and Ndongo are all thrash. Programs knocked out a go go in 2 rounds.
All I want to see is Crawford in a 50/50 fight. He hasn’t even been in a 60/40 fight

And the Kell Brook that Spence fought was coming fresh off of a stoppage loss and eye socket surgery when he fought him. Crawford fought Brook three years after his loss to Spence. He was not coming fresh off of a stoppage loss when he fought Crawford and he had plenty of time to heal from the back to back eye socket injuries he had suffered against GGG and Spence. I don’t know how you guys are so comfortable pretending that GGG vs Kell Brook and the repercussions of that fight had no effect on Brook when he fought Spence. Its a bizarre level of dishonesty.

Laying around? His Team are the ones who put the pressure on the IBF to get Spence! Spence was the target, and he went right after him! Crawford on the other hand, signed an extension to TR, when all the TOP WWs were at PBC! Now, suddenly, he's ready to sign a 2-year deal with PBC!

This kid is 25 years old, 30 fights, and 27 KOs! He has the same amount of KOs as Tank, and 1 more fight than Tank, and is 3 years younger than Tank! Boots has more fights and more KOs than Errol Spence Jr.! He's out here working! I can't understand the hate???

He absolutely did not demand Spencer. Your delusional. If they did the ibf would of mandated it as a defense but instead booty is just waiting around for the spencer-crawford fight and hope spencer wins so he vacated when he moves up.

He has ko's against who exactly? you act like hes on a murderers row of knockouts when hes knocked out ****ing bums. Tell me who his best wins are. The fact your shltting on crawford and praising booty shows your a bias fangirl
