Was cataract really the secret reason Spence lost to Bud?

Crawford is a generational talent but that was a husk of a Spence in there. Whether it was the weight or this- I probably could buy an excuse on this one.
Without really wanting one to win over the other it was just a profoundly disappointing fight after years of build up.
Yeah Crawford looked electric and Spence gamely took an absolute shoeing but I doubt anyone really expected or wanted to see that.

Crawford stepped up the levels dramatically I see him doing movements/combos I never seen him do before that fight he's elite level and he wasn't ever uncomfortable in there he had more to show but didn't need to was a crazy performance best of 2023 for me.

I wouldn't be surprised buddy, at the same time I'm sure Spence didn't envision fighting someone using a more spiteful version of Floyd style in there that night.

Anyway, we saw Spence wearing glasses prior to the buildup, so we know his eyes weren’t 100%, but that’s not Crawford’s fault.
Yet another asterisk though…Porter with two bad hips and now Spence with two bad eyes.
