Bud just spitting some venom at the Spence sycophants. He won in dominant fashion so that's his prerogative. Styles make fights and it's not just who you fight but when you fight them (and I don't think there was ever a point when Spence was beating Bud).

Yes. He almost lost to Porter, and was losing to Brook before a headbutt caused Brooks eye to collapse. Danny Garcia hasn't done **** at 147. Guys were too busy ****ting on Buds resume to realize Spence's resume wasn't good either, it just had better name recognition.It could have also meant the entire PBC welterweight roster was not really up to par. That Spence was really feasting on average talents. Years ago they were called elites. You beat one of them, you're on top automatically. Does this mean fans overrated these guys for years?
Dominated Mikey doe.Comment

Bud did irreparable damage, not only physically, but visually to spencer's career.
It's hard to find another modern hall of famer that got outclassed that bad and still got inducted..
Bud just destroys any chance of recoveribility.
In contrast to Floyd's opponents that can seemingly recover after their loss (Floyd has brittle hands).Comment

These guys fall in love. They talk up their object of devotion to where their pride won't let them admit he's flawed. They ignore all kinds of sign, bad nights, unfulfilled expectations, and finally, they turn vicious. Yo mamma, you effeminate, I seen guys like you in jail. Stop. Your boy lost.Comment

I'm not a Floyd nut hugger but one thing I'll say about the man is this: he definitely knows boxing. Not only was he wise enough to know who to fight and who to avoid during his career, and when to fight certain fighters vs. when not to fight them, but he also knew Bud would beat Spence up. That's why behind the scenes for years, he did whatever he could to block that fight from happening. He knew that fight would mess up the PBC roster and their hold on the welterweight titles and also it would draw comparisons to Floyd that he didn't want, as far as ppl saying Bud would beat Floyd tooComment

But Bud IS a hall of famer, whether your hatin@ss likes it or not, 2x undisputed, 3x lineal champ...end of story.Last edited by El_Mero; 09-26-2023, 11:30 PM.Comment

Ain't no boxer a bum. Even less a fighter that fights at world-level. There's levels to everything and Crawford is just something different even at world-level. He's so good that he makes good fighters look average. Simple as that.Comment
