Comments Thread For: Errol Spence-Terence Crawford: Stats & Stakes

[A.B Counterhooks]

I would be very much surprised and speechless if Bud actually stops ESJ in final rounds...however he's on a ko winning streak and has stopped 30 of 39 opponents so maybe isn't that crazy to think...but I still pick Spence by decision. May the best man win and we all have a great night of Boxing.

Can't wait for this matchup. I can't call it. I like both fighters. A year ago I would have called it for Spence, hands down. I felt the Black Terminator (the 1984 original) would continue to come forward, absorbing all of Crawford's shots and then taking Crawford into deep waters, and then unleashing body and head shots, to a stoppage.

But now, I'm leaning towards Crawford winning by either a stoppage or on points. Crawford looks incredible. He looks like a full welterweight. He's a better boxer. And I can't ignore the fact, that whatever you say about the competition, he has 10 knockouts in a row.

Both fighters start off slow, and while Spence's style is relentless, Crawford's style is slick counterpunching.

Spence mentioned he's not too keen on 147 anymore. I see Crawford testing Spence's stamina, by increasing his own work rate. If Spence is truly depleted, late, I'm curious to see how he reacts to counter power punch traps. I've never seen modern Spence get hurt - which makes this bout so intriguing. Either fighter can win. We're just speculating spectators.

I'm hoping for a classic.

Things NOT heard about this fight in the build up..............

# 1 -- i am not going to waste my money on this PPV so called attraction

# 2 -- This will not be a competitive fight.............

# 3 -- They waited too long to finally get this fight into the ring......

# 4 -- This is all that is wrong with boxing.......

# 5 -- Who cares what happens on the undercard with Nonito..................

Maybe i just did not hear those comments or they carried no weight in this particular fight, who knows but i got a feeling this could be one hell of a fight for both men. It could actually change a lot more then just the number at the end of each others W--L records. Lot is riding on this one, lets hope or i hope it is half as good as i believe it is going to be..............

Yea buddy get your Ya Ya's out tonight let it rip...................

Too much craft, too much speed. Crawford TKO12 Spence after a convincing late rounds beatdown.

Spence's body is going to fail him. His weight gain, inactivity and drinking are going to catch up to him in the late rounds. Crawford, at least physically, has never looked better going into a fight.

Lot questions will have an answer tonite thats for sure. Expecting a chess match with close rounds, think they'll walk full twelve but the Ko is always welcomed.

I've been thinking about this as well. I hope it isn't athe case but I know you can only go to the well so many times before there's nothing left. But it will be up to Crawford to highlight that.

I think the only reason Spence was inactive this time around is because he wanted to get Bud in the ring. He could've gone up to 154 to face Thurman, but he knows once he goes up in weight, it will be hard to go back down to 147. While I think he stayed in shape during his hiatus, I too believe weight will be an issue. It's a real challenge for Spence to stay or get down to 147. He's naturally a bigger man.

He doesn't look as invincible as he used to look though. It's all of his new tattoos.....

Dude used to have a throwback body. Now he looks ordinary.....like everyone else these days smh/lol
