Comments Thread For: Photos: Errol Spence, Terence Crawford - Face To Face at LA Presser

Spence wasn’t able to stop Mikey, Danny G, and Porter. I don’t see Crawford getting stopped. Especially since we haven’t seen him hurt-hurt in many years.

Spence is a volume puncher, obviously. But, Crawford is sharper in exchanges. Spence tends to muscle his way through those moments, but Buds got ‘eyes’ and a more dynamic intuition during them. Spence’s style gives way to the opportunities Bud tends to finish opponents in. I think Bud’ll surprise a lot of people during these moments and ultimately will stop Spence late.

Spence has shown vulnerabilities, especially with Porter, Danny, and Ugas, and it’s been during those exchanges. Bud has a very “I allowed that to happen” body language when an opponent has success, so it’s hard to pinpoint where he’s bad at because seconds later he’ll be dropping a guy in the same scenario he just failed in. Much like what we’ve seen with Gervontae as of late. There’s a comfort he has with being uncomfortable. Spence is a bit more predictable and operates almost within a specific template at times, it’s just that he imposes his will very well.

I have some feeling Spence will win easier than expected. Crawford is much smaller and he looks older also.

Something just doesn't feel right going into this fight with crawford. The vibes in the air is that this can go so brutally wrong for bud.

Great fight, I have no idea who will win at this point

Danm, Spencer looks old af

He's changed his "look" quite a bit.

Maybe he's trying to reinvent himself after his battles with alcohol and whatever other demons.

I have a feeling Spence has been dancing with alcohol again.

He looks bloated and unhealthy.

If that's the case, his brain and liver are shot and Bud just has to punch them each once and Spence is finished.

In context, Spence was never trying to ko Mikey, the game plan was to out-box the better boxer. As for Koing Danny Garcia & Shawn Porter, that's almost impossible. Even Crawford acknowledged that KOing either would be difficult for anyone.

Again....in fairness....sure Crawford hurt Porter to the body but more importantly, Crawford was dialing in. Shawn's father Kenny didn't see a path to winning, and knowing it was Shawn's last fight, he stopped it. Nobody questions that Shawn could have gotten up but without one punch power the outcome would have been the same. For the record,IMO, Kenny Porter did what a REAL loving father would do for his son... and he took the heat that came with it.

FYI, I admit I'm a Terrance Crawford fan...

Did Spence rip his shirt and patch it with a part of his couch?

Boxing fans will be talking about this performance from Terence Crawford for years to come; he's needed this fight for years. Glad to see that the fight has finally been made.

Unless you've weighed him you have no idea what his weight is. Claiming he was "200" three weeks ago is just ******.

don't have to weigh him - can see him in pics and make a close estimate
