    I'd like to see Crawford @ 147 first. Even then, I'd still favour Spence.

      Except that Spence is the bigger fighter and wouldn't look like a 5th grader fighting a senior in HS.

      I also don't think you'll have Spence chasing Crawford and him being like 2 steps ahead.

        Crawford is nowhere in the realm of Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Spence will show that if Top Prank allows Crawford to fight him. Crawford has fought nobody his own size or bigger to even suggest he can compete with the best at welterweight. I don't understand the hype when this guy got buzzed by inactive and blown up Gamboa while he had a huge size advantage. That Gamboa wasn't even an A class fighter anymore and Crawford fought worse caliber as he moved up. Spence will body Crawford. #ManDown #StrapSeason

          nah.. bud is not THAT nice. pump the breaks. let's see how his power carries into 147 first. if horn takes his shots and is not discouraged then safe to say spence will bulldoze him. the horn fight will answer some questions.

            It's a shame we will never see the fight. Well never is a strong word but think at least a few years. Both guys are considered future stars and in the buildup phase to be stars.

              Both would get schooled by a prime Floyd

              Hell, a prime pacquiao might have even beat them up

                hahahaha. Pac is the one countering the so called counter puncher master with just one healthy arm.

                    when 2 offensive minded fighters fight each other, one has to be superior than the other. the least superior one will turn defensive or get ko'd. simple. it happens to everyone larry. sorry to burst your bubble.

                      Crawford isn't as good as Mayweather and Spence is effective for different reasons than Pacquiao.

                      Pacquiao isn't known for his body punching and ability to cut off the ring. Mayweather was able to shut him down because he couldn't rough Mayweather up on the inside or force the fight at mid range.

                      It'd be more accurate to look at Chavez, Castillo, Maidana and Cotto.
