Terrance Crawford is a better fighter than Spence jr

[Sheldon312]

Even if Brook wouldn't of quit Spence was pressuring the hell out of him. He had a harder pop than Brook. He's got long arms and hits hard enough to make anyone have to adjust to him. He beat a very good fighter. I like Crawford too. Hell of a fighter. Just hope he doesn't force himself up too fast. Remember what happened to Chocolatito. You SHOULDNT leave YOUR BODIES intended weight class. There is a limit. Though most on here think otherwise.

Pac did it. There's no excuse for Crawford

Not sure why all of a sudden all the usual suspects have a hard on for Spence jr when they've already had a much better fighter to root for in Bud Crawford.

Why the sudden infatuation with Spence? When Crawford been clowning dudes for 2+ years and never has even had a close fight go late rounds before pulling it out.

Is it the HBO thing or the Arum thing? I don't get it....

For me it's based on size, but p4p, yes, Crawford is better

PAC, mayweather are special individuals whose SPEED compensates for size. They also can hit hard enough to keep there opponents respecting them in the ring.
Only thing that Crawford does that I don't like is he seems to give his opponents a chance. He fights at there level. When he tries that with a big welterweight. There power is something that will change the rhythm of the fight. He'll toe to toe" with a guy much harder hitting then himself. Hell, that's letting your opponent "in the game". Not smart.

Spence beats the dog **** out of Crawford!

Nah. Spence is elite. But Crawford is ATG

SMH - neither is true. Neither has the resume. Can they get there ? I'm doubting on Crawfords power at ww (where he'd need to fight to become atg) and I already see flaws from Spence - too hitable.

Given the age similarity I'd love to see Spence and Canelo at some point as I think they'll only be 6 pounds apart within a year or two when Spence moves up.

Ward is the better fighter by far

Really? Why? What does Ward do better than Crawford besides hold and hit inside? He got outboxed by a stiff European according to most these guys on here

Defense, accuracy, jab, and footwork. He has also beaten better competition.

"Usual suspects"? That's what you're going for huh?

[Mike D]

Idk, maybe he is, but Terence hasn't fought a challenge near the level of fighting a Kell Brook in hostile territory.

That was very, very impressive by Spence.

I will say this, though. Spence/Crawford...a potential fight between them would by absolute dynamite.

[Elroy The Great]

why must it be one OR the other

[Queen_Leia]

spence was in a tough fight until a freak injury happened to Brook and he had to quit.

Freak injury???? Are you fcuking blind? Spence caused the injury while engaging in the Marquis of Queensbury rules.

Spence get full credit for injurying the eye and causing Brook to quit. If Spence wasn't punching at the eye, Brook would not have quit.
