I don't think crawfor will be as good at 147

yeah I don’t even know who Crawfor is but I do think a guy named Crawford will be as good at 147.

I'm fine with this one marinating but not too long as Spence will outgrow the division.

Hopefully end of 2019 at the masters early 2020.

Crawford can get Horn, the name of Pacquaio and perhaps a PBC guy like Danny Garcia (amateur history) and fully acclimate to the weight and Spence can unify when Thurman is ready and then be the last two standing for all four belts.

Crawford could be a star with 2-3 more big ESPN events and Spence will get a lot more popular if he can get those belts from Thurman and some more impressive wins.

He hasn' fought anyone good at 147 yet and Spence has. How do you know?

[Pennsauken1]

These two are the top dogs, I agree with Freddie

[thack]

Yes Fred absolutely mouth watering a true pick um fight .Bud's my man but will have to prove he can carry the weight and power properly first.He has the better skills but the power might be with Spence.

After tonight, wins over Peterson and Brook are better than anything on Bud's resume imo. (Peterson likely beats any one of Crawford's former opponents head-to-head right now.)

I still have Carwford as my number 1 P4P. But let's not act like he has beat some truly elite guys yet. Unifying 140 makes him my P4P number 1, but his comp hasn't been all that exciting and fighting a guy like Horn doesn't do much for his resume either. Postol is his best win.

Quit hating fool! Crawford beat three good fighters with undefeated records. Gamboa, Postol, and Indongo. Plus he completely embarrassed another Olympic gold medalist in Diaz who should of been undefeated too cause I think he beat Lamont Peterson.
So Spence doesn't have a better resume than Crawford.
I think it'll be a great fight between Crawford and Spence. I can't pick a winner and it'll be interesting to see if Crawford can carry his power up too 147.

I think most people are underestimating kieth 1 time thurman. I think he is right there in the same group as Crawford and spence in the division and has been in tough and has had to dug deep to get a few wins, spence and crawford havr rarely been hurt and had to dig deep to pull out the win and that counts for something. I see those three fighting each other having classic fights

[Sickmerch1990]

Haha he's already top 10 P4P on many publications

Well one win v brook who aswell only had one win v porter dont make you a world beater i think he gets to a top 5 ranking but not yet come on unless boxing gone down the pan that much must make aj p4p n1 then he beat a all time great

I hope we see Spence Jr. vs. Crawford in 2018! No need for those 2 to sit patiently waiting on Thurman! My dream scenario: Gesta beats Linares, ESPN and SHO make a deal, Crawford fights Spence on SHO, Mikey fights Loma on ESPN!
