My number 1 fight to make right now. It'd be a brutal fight, with Crawford taking most of the damage. I got Spence in under 10 rounds.Comment

I going with crwaford toSpence isn't a remarkable fighter p4p in and of itself. He's good for the sport and I love him and his attitude, but he isn't extremely talented. There's a reason he couldn't medal in the olympics, he's too easy to hit, too flat footed and not to good on defense.
I think an acclimated Crawford Boxes circles around him.Comment

I agree completely. Spence isn’t easy work for anyone and by the time he fights Crawford he’ll be a lot more seasonedLol, you dudes really need to go rewatch that fight, and not on sky.
First of all, that fight was 3-3, or 4-2 either way, after 6 rounds...before spence completely took over.
As far as jabs go, Spence probably landed 3-4x as many jabs as brook did, and his jab was probably the shot that broke brook's eye socket.
To answer the question, NOBODY makes easy work of Spence. I like Crawford and think he's the goods, and imo this is a more difficult fight than Thurman, for either guy... but anybody that thinks crawford or spence will be "easy work" for the other guy, dksab.Comment

Crawford should focus on landing something big early to get the respect, maybe in the first 2 rounds, then start moving, boxing and using ring IQ to win/steal as many rounds as possible, he's gonna be up against really big framed guys at 147 and I think it's gonna be a totally different ball game for him.
Spence could get outboxed but his pressure and incredible stamina were too much to overcome for his opponents, Crawford is younger, fresher, better on his feet than Brook who was Spence' toughest fight, and if Brook managed to win 3-4 rounds against Spence I think Crawford can outbox Spence for 7-8 rounds to win the fight, the only question mark is Crawford's durability at 147, he's shown good durability at the lower weight but at 147 it's totally different, we'll see in due time.
Hopefully these hypothetical fights get made though, Bob Arum is gonna be in the way of these fights happening so don't get your hopes too high.Last edited by Dip_Slide; 12-27-2017, 06:24 AM.Comment

If Brook can outbox Spence, then TC can most definitely do it better. The thing is, Spence is taller and more muscular, plus he hits harder and is stronger. How will TC deal with that pressure?Comment

Super fight type of fight. I think Spence is a lot more physical than Crawford. He has more tenacity about him and his bodywork is really good, but I think Crawford is more skilled and can do more things in the ring and give more looks than Spence can, and I think some of that has to do with the experience that Crawford brings.
Both guys would need to be on their A game.Comment
