Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Respect Spence, He Could've Moved To 154; We're Going Fight The **** Out Of Each Other

[Santa_]

This is a great fight that no boxing fan should miss. The only way Spence loses is if he's affected by the 15 month layoff. Would I have preferred this to have taken place before Spence's life altering car accident? Of course but Bud was hiding behind Arum's skirt at the time. Either way it's must see TV. I've already pre-ordered the event on the Paramount app.

Tampered gloves vs PEDS. I think this will be a good fight between cheaters of boxing.

One thing I can say about Errol Spence for certain. i can tell by his character that when he gets his ass whipped on the 29th, he'll never, ever make excuses. He'll never say 1) his costume was too heavy, 2)Bud's body had oil on it, 3) the referee was against him, 4) Derrick James spiked his water bottle, 5) Bud's gloves had egg weights in it, 6) Bud hit with an open glove to make his reach longer, 7) Bud removed padding from his gloves. 8) somebody did a JuJu on his ass, 9) he has evidence of cheating that never gets shown, 10) it's snakes in the grass, 11) Bud was leaning om him with all his weight to make him tired, or none of that Donald Trump-like crybaby, never accept defeat, make up a bunch of lies and excuses BS that Deontay Wilder pulled when he got his ass handed to him twice by Fury. No zero-class, lame ass sportsmanship on the part of Errol, because Errol is a real man, not a baby. That's why on July 29th, I fully expect Errol to man up and wear that asswhipping like a tight t-shirt

Both of these men are men of character. That’s one of the main reasons (besides their superb individual skill sets) that real fight fans are so amped for the 29th. I, personally, am sick to death of the loud-mouthed, social media hype-chasing chumps who have tainted this sport: “little boys” of poor character who beat up civilians, abuse their partners, get bust carrying concealed weapons (because they got to be gangsta) etc..

Real men of character - like Errol and Bud - have defined this sport for well over 50 years. In this sense, both are “old school” champs. Let’s just hope that crooked judging doesn’t taint what could easily be the fight of the year.

Bud wasn’t hiding behind Arum’s skirt. He happened to be on “the wrong side of Al Street”. So he was being punished. Ask Uncle Leonard.

This should literally be Hagler vs Hearns 2..

Super excited for this fight..

Please don't let it end early with no dumbass headbutt or cut . I'd rather see them go the distance or one get the KO..

[Nightfall]

Crawford is the complete fighter and Spence is stronger and brutal. Its going to be talked about for ages. I got my boy Spence winning in a late stoppage

[hugh grant]

If spence loses to bud as spence was drained that's ok. Spence will move up and end up greater as bud will stay at 147 trying to keep zero

[Bronx2245]

I would've lost all respect for Spence, had he moved up to 154 TO FIGHT KEITH THURMAN!!!

[Knuckle sandwich]

Difficult fights to call tend to end in draws, I've had a of success over the last 25 years betting on this outcome, I see both fights being overly cautious for the first three rounds, both fighters have had a lot of time to prepare for this fight, so don't see a stoppage ether way, I knockdown could swing for a narrow points win, or a draw.

How do you see this as Buds fight to Lose?? You are Sadly mistaken my guy

Thank you for your gentlemanly response. Normaly, I pick a bunch of losers, I like the underdog. When he wins, sometimes, I look like an expert. In this case it's 6 of one, or a half dozen of the other
