    Remember when Spence TKO'd Porter? Me neither. He was lucky to get a split decision.

      Spence hasn't exactly fought killers. Guys ducked Crawford because he represented a huge risk for less money.

      Spence looked average against Porter, who has no power.

      Odds are Crawford stops him. Spence might win a boring UD. He won't fight Bud straight up, be certain of that.

        We hope for a Leonard / Hearns type fight, but in reality I already hear the commentators wowing the fans with words about defense, footwork, ring general-manship and other words for a boring fight, where men hug each other more than they hug their wives.

          "Spence certainly has a stronger resume than Crawford. His wins as a welterweight have come against the likes of Mikey Garcia..."

              You just nullified Derrick James argument. If past fights don't matter, then James is talking nonsense. Which he really is.

              To say Spence has fought better comp, to a level that Crawford's power is not relevant...dumb.

                Derrick James is the one saying Crawford never fought anybody. I repeat: Crawford TKO'd a guy Spence struggled with. True or not? Are you buying what James is saying?

                  Spence gave Crawford's resume a score of 0.5, while Crawford gave Spence’s resume a score of 7.
                  If this isn't a typo, it's hilarious. SO what we're saying is that Crawford knows Spence has fought the better names (despite what TheOneAboveAll is saying)?

                    Remember when Bud fought Khan and Brook who were both irrelevant at 147?
                    Remember that Brook and Porter were Spence’s leftovers?

                      While Bud’s win came against Khan and Brook. Both washed up at the time. How the heck did Bud fight Khan? That still amazes
