    "After the fight, Spence promptly refused to trot out any excuses for his lopsided loss, but that did not stop fans from devising various theories justifying Spence’s poor showing."

    This is all that matters!

      I remember back when this fight was first announced as a potential match up back in 2018; I gave Errol Spence the slight edge due to his being the natural, heavier and stronger welterweight.

      However, since that time I've been swaying back and forth on my pick. However, since that car accident almost all of the boxing experts like: Former Hall of fame boxers and current trainers alike picked Terence Crawford to win.

      They were right. Had it not been for the accident the fight would have been a lot closer but still Bud would have won it anyhow because he is the overall, better athlete and boxer.

      He is a gym rat who is constantly grinding in the gym 24/7 while staying physically fight.

        I bet Ali, whilst fighting with parkinsons didn't realise there was something wrong too.
        Spence had car accident and he's not what he was, even if by a little bit. There's fine margins at highest level

            All that may well be true, but I'm just happy that Spence did NOT make excuses about accidents, or weight cut!

              It would have bene Undisputed vs Undisputed, then Charlo would have made an excuse that he was having trouble making 154.
              Yeah he should have passed on Canelo to fight Crawford (who at the time best win was Kell Brook). Do you people think before **** comes out of your mouth? The Crawford fight is going to be there for Charlo anytime he wants it. Don't be a dumbass.

                Crawford is a sensible guy. You can't control the excuses etc that other people will create so the best thing is just to not give a ****.

                  Yeah and then Charlo is going to make the excuse of coming back down in weight and was damage goods after Canelo Knocks him the *** out. I know your are a dumbass you don't know what sarcasm is.

                    Just because Pacquiao and his fans routinely pull that crap doesn't mean Charlo will. And if he does, so what? The fans will still give him credit. But you're an idiot if you think Charlo should have sat on the shelf for half a year waiting for Crawford when he's going to make 8 figures fighting Canelo.

                      He should have waited over a year to get back in the ring, to make about $30 million less than he's about to against the cash cow in boxing?

                      What?
