They can throw verbal jabs all they want. Come July 29th should end speculation as to who the better boxer is.

However, as we're coming up on the eve of their fight, my feelings have changed. While I believe that Spence can win by stoppage, I believe Crawford can win on points and by stoppage. I've seen Bud get hurt before, so I think Spence has the ability to hurt Crawford. I've never seen Spence hurt, but he doesn't look that invincible anymore - perhaps, it's all of his new tattoos, lol.
Crawford, is a very good boxer, that gets better as a fight goes on (Even if someone gives him fits, he figures them out and stops them).
And like I said, I've never seen Spence hurt, but he looks weaker for some reason, and there's always a first. If Crawford hurts his opponents, he knows how to finish them. I've never seen Spence have to fight after getting hurt. Therefore, I don't know know how he'd react. Some boxers bounce back when hurt - like Gatti, Nigel Benn, and Holyfield. And then some fold like Roy Jones Jr, Fernando Vargas, and Mike Tyson.
I'm not ruling either fighter out. Both fighters can win this - and it's crazy because I went from it being a sure win for Spence, to now giving a slight edge to Crawford.
I like both fighters. I can't bash either. I'm looking forward to a classic.

He beat Benivdez one sidedly throughout the entire fight. I don’t believe that he ever said anything about Benividez being his toughest fight. Because I’ve seen multiple interviews where he was asked the question and he has always said Gamboa was his toughest fight. And he said Kavaliauskas was his second toughest fight. When did Benividez, who by the way never landed a meaningful shot in their fight, get thrown into that mix? I think the journalist asked him a question based on a false premise that he made up out of thin air.
They’ve been doing that a little bit when they ask Spence about Crawford. I just saw an interview where one journalist claimed that BoMac called him a “PBC creation”. I went and looked for the interview where he supposedly said that and found nothing. I saw another interview where it sounded like the same female journalist asking the question said “there seems to be more animosity from BoMac towards you with all the things he said about you”. I went and looked for that as well and it just simply doesn’t exist. These journalists are making things up and asking questions based on false and fabricated premises to illicit a response that might make a headline on media outlets like boxingscene.Charlie Zelenoff likes this.

Spence's toughest fight is apparently calling an Uber from the bar.
70% Crawford stops him, 30% really ****ty boring UD as Spence wins running all night and fans want their money back.

Crawford is very reluctant to go hard vs guys who are taller than him unless they’re old, past prime or really lesser fighters. Idk why.
Crawford’s best performance over a taller fighter who was still fresh and prime was Dulorme. And he wasn’t that good.
He fights way more aggressive, and starts off quicker, the shorter the fighter is. But he will be aggressive towards C level tall fighters like Molina, Indongo, Horn, or Dulorme.
