    lmao are you ****ing serious? He already has 4 losses prior and was koed by hopkins at 160. Then he had to suck weight down to face mayweather. He retired the year after getting stopped by manny.

There is no doubt in my mind in that. At 147, we're talking 30 year old crawford against 30 year old floyd and even this 35 year old version would give him problems. I do know this much, a 26 year old tito isn't losing to a 35 year old welterweight.
      crawford will beat the **** out of tito. He'll take away his jab and that's that. Tito comes at you with poor head movement and bud will counter him to death. Won't even be a close fight.

        I mean I've never seen Crawford bleed and stunned before. Like I'm actually trying to remember if I've ever seen Crawford in some sort of trouble in any fight or if I've watched him in a fight where he wasn't in complete control.

        Floyd by split decision but it would be the most skillfull fight ever.
        He got stunned against Gamboa.

          once again, Tito isn't losing to a 35 year old welterweight hahaha. Hopkins was a 36 year old mw, It' s just not happening. Crawford's head movement isn't the best either. Stop being a prisoner of the moment. It was tito's best weight. And their competition (outside of DLH) is really comparable. We can do a run down of it if you like along with their fighting style. Like Crawford, Tito never lost at ww either(thought his fight with dlh was close and debatable). For the record, I picked Crawford to win(its documented on my youtube page BEFORE the fight)

            Tito should have lost that fight against de la hoya. There's no way he won 7 rounds. Regardless, You cannot beat bud trying to over power him in a straight line. It's not a size issue. Hopkins didn't beat tito with size but with counter punching angles and ring iq. Tito does not have the tools or ring iq to beat him. 2nd, bud is an elite counter puncher which tito has issues with and tito would get countered all night long. Tito got rocked and dropped multiple times at ww as well.

                Nobody said Spence was defensively elite. Don't lie.

                  I know. I just made a correction that Crawford was stunned, that's all. I like Crawford and I told one of my friends when he ask me, that three or four years ago, spence would have been my pick, not now, Crawford have the time to grow into a full fledged WW, while spence is outgrowing the division. Did you saw how big and fit Crawford looked? And how drained and skinny spence looked compare to Bud?

                    Yes I was surprised. He looked wider and broader than spence. I guess deadlifting 400 plus pounds over time does make you bigger. I wouldn't say spence looked skinny. He looked fuller than he did against brooke porter and ugas.

                      Bud vs Floyd at 154 right now might set a new boxing ppv record
                      Yep, don't be surprised if it happens. Floyd's been keeping in shape and keeping his name out there doing the exhibitions. It'll be billed as the SRL v Hagler fight of the new millennium. It would ideally happen with Bud holding all 4 154 straps after KOing Charlo.
