Comments Thread For: Arum: Why Wouldn't I Make Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence?

[mexicanstyle]

honestly i want to see how he takes a big welters punch horns has solid power remember gamboa had him on happy legs for a split second .he started at lightweightalbeit being a huge lightweight but frame wise spence is soo much bigger he 2 solid divisions bigger on walking around weight spence is a super welter shrinking to welter hell he can even campaign at middleweight if he wanted.if i had to choose now spence late round tko while behind on the cards.

This is will be The Fight to see, but I do agree Crawford needs to settle in to 147. Taking on Horn won’t really prove anything to me before he takes on, in my humble opinion, the top 147 lb fighter. Taking on the Porters, Vargas or Khan (Ok maybe not Khan) would be a great set up before Spence. Would be great for 2019

I respectfully disagree with your humble opinion good sir. I watched a couple Jeff Horn fights on YT before he fought Manny so I knew going into that fight Horn wasnt going to be a pushover and he wasnt. He was giving Pacquiao the business in many rounds of that fight. Jessie Vargas was getting knocked around pillar to post when he fought Pacman. I would favor Horn against Vargas. He may not have fought many big names but almost all his fights we're for minor Ibf and Wbo belts against fighters with great records. I wouldnt say I'm a fan of Horn by any means but he is a top welter and will be a good test to see how Crawford will do against a big strong skilled welterweight. How some people on here cant see that Jeff Horn is legit is beyond me

Bud would make Spence quit on the stool to avoid the KO. This would be a case of the teacher disciplining the unruly student.

like he made postol quit? lol yea no thats never happening, he cant ko spence

you always say the dumbest shlt

Pacquiao-mayweather, Pacquiao-ODLH, Pacquiao-Barrera 2x, Pacquiao Morales 3x, Pacquiao Marquez 4x, Pacquiao Cotto, Mayweather Corrales, ODLH Mosley, ODLH Trinidad, Hagler Hearns, Hagler Leonard, Hagler Duran, Leonard Duran 3x, Leonard Hearns 2x, Hearns Duran, ect ect ect. These are all fights made by Bob Arum so if you dont think hed make Crawford Spence you need to pass whatever it is your smoking because history has shown Arum is all about the money fights

Most of these 10+ years tho.

I hear what you’re saying and maybe Vargas may not be the best, but to say Horn was giving him PAC the business is a bit of a stretch. I gave him a few rounds in the fight but no where near enough to consider him winning that fight. Horn would have to legitimately win over Crawford to be condsiderd serious WW champ. But regardless of all that..I would like to see Crawford and Spence 2019

Crawford doesn't have great defence?......

never message me again, in fact you are going on the ignore list.

Do it but wait for Spence or Thurman to get all 3 belts first, the key is to walk out for all 4 belts

He doesn't.

There are weight divisions for a reason. While Bud is pound for pound the more seasoned and well rounded of the two boxers; However on the other hand, Spence has more physical ability than Terence. For example, he is naturally wider, stronger and the harder puncher of the two.

Crawford's lack of size (coming up from lightweight) power, low work rate and punch volume would only work to his overall detriment in this potential mismatch.

Hey it can happen!... Bob just has to drop dead first, but it can happen
