Like I said before, he has nothing to offer to beat Crawford. His loss has nothing to do with the weight, fair and simple. He lost because he is miles behind Bud on boxing skills and there is no reason to believe he would do better against him at 154. Spence got taken to school in the most dominant manner I had ever seen in a unification fight. I think Bud is happy about doing a rematch for this exact reason - it's easy work and easy money. I rewatched the fight again last night and was shocked even more how easy he made it look.
Although he has cemented his legacy last weekend, Bud should go take belts at 154. He probably has 2-4 years left and I think he has a good chance to become unprecedented unified in 3 weight classes. There would be no questions about the GOAT status if he achieved that.
