Once Crawford gets in a rhythm is hard to get him out of it.
Crawford will stop him at some point. But Crawford hasn't looked good when he's stepped up (Gamboa, Postal, Porter) so it may take time in a boring fight.

Thats true and great points. But also Crawford has ring rust. And the David Avanesyan fight maybe a sense of delusion. That fight was a sparring match rather then anything else so in truth Crawford has heavy ring rust.Joe Beamish likes this.

Boxing journalist are claiming that bud failed his first weigh in and was over by ounces. Needing time to sweat down. Blue blood didn't pick up on the story first
And most people on social media are pointing back to Blue Blood as the "true" source.
Now, I did see some theories that are rather compelling.- wearing a dark hoodie when it's almost 120 degrees in Vegas (where I am) is a bit suspect, although the place could be air conditioned, if it weren't that would be guaranteed additional sweating = drop some more pounds without half trying.
- Started camp in March (BoMac) - that's an extremely long camp. Which raises the question of either being overtrained (that would explain his appearance) or needing significantly more time to cut weight
- Having a doctor in his entourage? Why?

No. The story was broken on Twitter by Boxing journalist. Blue blood just d*k ride the story. Also who in their right mind would come out right now and officially give u proof that crawford missed weight considering that it was a hidden weigh in and u will lose your media ccrondentials even giving hard proof. Also u have to remember that bud comes down from 180 to 147 (5 years ago) imagine now. BTW errol spoke to everyone after the press conference bud was out of there. I hope and pray that bud didn't and he is on point. I would be pissed.
Errol sticking around when Crawford didn't - okay? Could be he's just overtrained or just tired from trying to make weight. Or he went to get a burger.
My point is, it's all speculation. I've never said that he did or didn't miss weight. All I'm saying is, it's a bunch of rumors and nothing else at this point.

No boxing journalists were allowed in. Fat Dan (Rafael) who has a press pass was denied access. The only people who would know, are Crawford's camp, Spence's camp, the venue staff, TGB / PBC, and maybe some Nevada commission people. None of them are going to "leak" that information.
