Comments Thread For: Shawn Porter Believes Spence Is Capable Of Beating Crawford In a Rematch at 154 Pounds

Spence was fighting back in the whole fight. It wasn't like he was standing there taking shots the whole fight. He was slow, missing shots and getting countered like crazy. What happens in the rematch when he fights at 154 lbs, is more accurate, quicker and gets Crawford's respect. If other boxers can see that Spence was off, then we should all give him the benefit of the doubt and see what happens in the next fight. Hearns got a worse beating then Spence and went on to have a hall of fame career.

I myself can't accept one loss is the end of the world for most fighters. Look at Lubin, who got beat worse than Spence. The human body is capable of healing itself.

Agreed. The same goes for Sebastian Fundora after he was brutally knocked out about 2 months ago.

Porter has done so many roids in his youth his brain is sparkin' fried. Podcast sucks, hang it up and fix your teeth.

I been saying it all along and Porter knows the truth too, crawford beat a weight drained version of spence, spence looked tired after round one and he didn't even get caught with one punch while crawford looked fresh throughout the fight and spence's punches had zero effects because his power was gone from cutting too much weight, that's why pacquiao had always the advantage against the "bigger" guys he faced at a catch weight suitable to him. I doubt crawford would take the fight at 154 because he knows he can't beat spence if he comes in 100%

Oh for crying out loud. You Spence boys have really been losing it.

Sure Spence could use the extra 7lbs but can Derrick add many tools to his toolbox by the time the rematch comes around. That is the real issue to me. Derrick has to rebuild AJ, Ryan and now add Errol to the list.

After what I saw saturday, I'm not even sure that Spence would be stronger than Bud even at 154lbs.

Is Derek going to finally correct how Spence throws a wide looping hook after his jab with his chin exposed? Is he going to correct how after Spence throws a 1-2 to the body he admires his work and forgets to put his hands up? These flaws have been there as long as I can remember, and I assume it’s what Mikey “Saw” but couldn’t exploit.

Porter is such a goof.

Damn…I guess that doesn’t mean the same thing in the USA

(Up here, goof is prison slang for child ******er. I saw someone get his head stomped for calling someone that)

They're trying to sell a rematch the public when we just witnessed a public execution.
