    No he wasn't. He knocked Porter down and finished as the stronger of the two in a competitive fight. There was no robbery unless you're just trying to rewrite history.

      Comparing Teo to Bud is laughable. Bud would’ve wiped the floor with Taylor & Teo on the same night LOL.!

          Canelo, Loma, Uysk, Spence, Bud, Golovkin, Bivol, Chocalitito, Inoue etc. Plenty of quality this era. I’m not saying it’s anything like the Floyd/Pac era but it’s packed with talent

            He didn't say that, not even close, he said the best of his era.

              "When Crawford (39-0, 30 KOs) was asked if he should be considered the greatest welterweight of all time should he beat Spence (28-0, 22 KOs) on July 29 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, he answered, “of course – hands down.”

              What does this mean?

                Taylor got his ass handed to him by catterall and then was out of the ring for a year and a half running from the rematch

                  Yeah that’s not answering my question. What I stated remains a fact.

                      Did I say "Robbery"? No. This was a split decision. In a lot of peoples' eyes, it could have gone either way. Spence is PBC level. Porter level. Thurman level. There is a reason they stayed on their side of the street.
