    ​Why Crawford is the betting favorite is a huge mystery considering most so-called fans say Bud hasn't fought anybody.

    It's still a 50/50 fight for me.
    Crawford is betting favorite because of Spence's accident.

    Which means, if Spence wrecks the dude, a LOT of people really are underrating him, because it means even a damaged version of himwas able to beat the top guys in the division minus Keef.

      I think many people believe that tampered gloves is more effective and dangerous than PEDS but i'm still hoping that spence PEDS will be more effective than crawford tampered gloves.

          There's literally nothing that supports this.

            What? Spence is much more physically imposing and rough, and he's more strong/durable than Bud. When has Bud ever manhandled someone?

              Porter is nobody? No one has stopped Shawn like that. Not Keef, not Kell, not Danny and not Earl. Vegas isn't ******. Bud is a 2:1 favorite because even money will bankrupt Vegas after Bud stops Spence.

                I don't think its about Porter, many that understand boxing know a name is not the same force all the time I don't favor either here I like both and in my eyes Porter was not the same fighter as Errol fought, he had one foot in retirement and that's generally not the best form a guy brings, I think generally people are more impressed with a string of KOs than beatdowns, especially with all the ass-kissing the commentators do when Bud fights you would swear its SRR, and so the majority of viewers see TC as the betting favourite, and it doesn't matter to them if its KOing low rent guys it still impresses the average joe far more than going the distance.

                  Spence is bigger but you guys are conflating the two. He is not physically imposing. Nobody has ever handled Bud in the clinch. Dude is a former wrestler lol and there are videos online showing how strong he is. Porter who is pretty strong couldn't do anything when Bud tied him up on the inside.

                  Also, Spence has been much more willing to accept clinches in his past 2-3 fights than before.

                    Mikey Garcia is a natural jr. lightweight. Going the distance with a natural jr. lightweight is impressive? Speaking of "one foot in retirement", didn't Danny have one foot in retirement when Earl fought him? I love how you guys constantly move goalposts to fit an agenda.

                      I think Spence will edge out a win, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's ruled a draw.
