    I’m torn on this fight. I don’t think that Crawford will win. I think it’ll be competitive. I surely don’t think Crawford will allow himself to get hit flush. And especially not with combinations. He’ll be lightning fast in comparison to Canelo, and he’ll know he’s facing the heaviest handed of all his opponents. So he’d be VERY focused on intelligence if they meet. Distance being the key, staying in the center of the ring, etc. But for 12 rounds it’ll be tough to keep up. And Canelo probably takes him by like 115-113 twice, with a 116-112 thrown in there.

      Spence in all honesty should retire before suffering real damage, because when you start talking about I can leave boxing at any time your heart not 110% into the game anymore and you need to be all the way in not partially. Then you have to take into account the damage mentally Bud inflicted on him also. It's ok to go out with a loss you made lots of money and achieved what 95% or more will ever! Go be great as a husband, father or role model life is short.

        Canelo would certainly overpower Crawford for 12 rounds but I genuinely believe Bud is skilled enough to survive in there with the ginger not to actually win it. What's funny here is some of the same usual bozos who claim canelo fought smaller guys actually want him to fight crawford now lol. Cant make this sht up.

          Unfortunately the car accidents and issues with alcoholism kicked him out the door a while ago.

            I don't see Bud sticking and moving for 12 rounds with an added 21lbs and not getting caught with something.

            Canelo isn't some unskilled contender.

              Skills vs power. Crawford could very well win this fight easily

                Crawford is too small, Canelo will beat him like he did Floyd.

                  Don’t quit your day job.. your scoring is whacked! Bud lighting fast compared to Canelo but still outscored on points??? Dumb shet huh?

                    Usyk has shown that one shouldn’t underestimate the smaller fighter if he has skills.

                      I’d buy it. Unsure about the winner and how Bud would fight, style wise. I do know that canelo would be coming forward. I’d have to look at other fights but it’s interesting
