Comments Thread For: Crawford On Immediate Rematch With Spence: It Definitely Don't Have To Be At 147 Pounds

At 154 there will be some reasons to think the fight could be more competitive. No saying it will, because my boy Bud is - to quote Sade - "a souped up car in a rental go kart town." But, watching the fight back, Errol did some good stuff in there. It was a dominant performance to be sure, but it wasn't completely one-sided. So, maybe at a higher weight and a new strategy it could be more competitive. As elated as I am for Bud (him and Thurman are my guys) - I'm a little sad for Spence who I always liked/appreciated and seems like a really good dude.

Spence didn't look like the fighter I've seen in the past, not close. My opinion is that his accident and problems with alcohol have made him damaged goods. He is still a very good fighter, but I think he should step away from further punishment while he still has a measure of health.

And what’s with all the ****** “ you’re the first MALE two time undisputed champion “ bullsht all these reporters were saying. How ridiculous.

Yes!! Damn Woman's basketball, Woman's boxing... Sorry!! Its just not the same!! My cognizant challenged cousin just learned basic math! Stephen Hawkins your legacy has been challenged? NOOOO!!!

I'm all for the rematch. Spence has to change his tune. He needs to focus on 1 punch power. Something to keep Crawford honest. He can't out box him. Gotta over power him.

The problem with this generation and boxing is a bunch of people on social media saying you're done after a loss. All the greats lost at some point. Comebacks are possible. But the opinions of many is why these fighters don't take the risks anymore. Because after 1 loss your careers over.

Spence go work on your defense and 1 punch power. Try again. And if not that's OK. Forrest had Mosley number. Still a hofer.

Some losses LOOK brutal but are not so bad, some losses are tough after a competitive fight... Then there are Calzighe beating Left Hook Lacy losses... where a fighter really lost his career and this was that kind of loss.

he probably needs some serious peds if thats the case possibly

Lmao just gotta sacrifice some speed and use timing and power.

A major factor is bud is coming UP to 47 while Errol boils down. That and bud is just the better fighter.
spence fans are just gone!! Eat y’all’s crow. They hiding behind boots now lol

Wait people don't actually like BOTH fighters? Yikes.

Let Spence get his chance at revenge. Big paydays for both. Fans wins. I don't see the issue. The rematch clause was there we knew it was coming no matter how the fight went. I have Crawford winning the rematch but I expect Spence to look better.

Unless having the fight at a higher weight magically undoes the damage from the car crash, and causes his boxing IQ to rise well above the "I'm gonna walk down a counterpuncher without moving my head" idiocy, the rematch will end even quicker.

Not right now, maybe Mandown to Beatdown Spence vs Thurman, then we'll see

I can't believe nobody is saying it. Both Spence and Crowford are moving up because of Boots. Can't blame them, Boots is from a different era. If they are willing to leave welterweight to Boots, so be it. But let us at least acknowledge that.

So yall are hiding behind boots because we know charlo gets beat down too, careful what you wish for. How it was for mayweather and his haters
I say Crawford move up AFTER he beat boots down than charlo.

Wait people don't actually like BOTH fighters? Yikes.

Of course but in certain instances it pits one vs The other and it includes fans and the opposing side was talking hella smack on my boy, it’s why he dropped TR to clear the path for last night
