    We would never know, but for sure Crawford is the more skilled and faster boxer.

    Only way to know is rematch 154 so their is no excuse about the weight issue.
    Excuses from errolsexuals

      Spence a volume combination fighter barely showed any offensive. Spence knew before the fight
      started to conserve energy, try to limit the punishment and use the rematch clause as his savior.

      During fight week, When Spence was asked if rematch would be at 147? Spence immediately replied
      no must be at 154. I wouldn't be surprised if it's later disclosed Spence almost killed himself
      making 147. Spence at 147 was defeated physically before entering the ring and mentally defeated
      within the first 2 rounds.

      Big business, money changing hands in the blink of an eye. Spence just bit down and at nights end
      refused to make excuses or enter any detailed conversions.The lawsuits will start flying by all parties
      involved if Spence physically was in no condition to perform at the highest level expected.

      Similarly to Manny disclosing shoulder injury after losing Floyd Mayweather Jr fight and a few other
      events..
      More excuses from errolsexuals give bud his props he whoops any version of spence

The Spence fighting Garcia and Porter would have had Crawford for dinner. Spence had too many miles on the clock fighting the best in the Welterweight division (the Thurman's, the Garcia's and the Porters). Crawford swooped in at the right time. I'm not knocking Crawford - he's a great fighter but he will be forever known as the guy who avoided the best in his weight division when it mattered.

        His best win was definitely Brook and that's it. Porter already said bed retire win, lose or draw and because of that he wasn't even on the right mind set. He beat Spence through and through but it will be tainted because of when the fight happened. Sorry - that's it. I love Crawford but let's be real, outside of Brook be never fought a live one at the peak of the division. He waited.
        He never fought Thurman, what you talking about? Accept defeat and move on

          He was never a KO puncher. He was like Margarito where he breaks guys down with constant pressure and accumulation

            Evidence nothing of the real spence was in ring saturday, not even.power. He was unsteady on feet so why would we expect power to be there?

              Took the words out of my mouth. Mean Machine strong AF

              If he had an American name he’d have been a top 5 WW

If any of u co.ksuckers remembers me asking u that b4 the fight, take ur thumb and ur index finger, put a capitol L on your forehead, or up in the air for me right now
                Porter and Brook said Spence punched harder.

                    “I knew he was much slower than me and I was stronger than him and he didn’t hit as hard as everybody said he did.”

                    bud doing his best to drum up interest for the rematch

                    next he will change spences name from The Truth to Bambi

                      There’s no need for a rematch. Same result. Crawford left no doubt.

                      Spence should just stay away and either retire, or face someone else. Hopefully Crawford didn’t break something in Spence.
