Comments Thread For: Joel Diaz Confident: Terence Crawford Will Beat Errol Spence

[Vegemil]

NSB boxing fans must be on something if they honestly believe that Crawford can beat Spence. Have you even compared their *******?

Bud will be the one to flatten the Spence hype wagon's tires!

Errol is a really good fighter but Bud has all the checks to be the best of this era!

I think he outboxes, then puts a clinic on Errol!

Errol's offense is his defense especially his jab!

Take away his jab and invade his holes in his defense then he'll instinctively come forward more just to land a big shot, Crawford will take advantage!

Too quick, too smooth, too many weapons, and toolbox fill of skills for Spence!

I agree with a lot of what you said, however I think Crawford would be a lot more cautious against Spence, and therefore it will be a lot closer of a fight than what were used to seeing from either of them. But I do agree that Crawford pulls out the victory if he doesnt get robbed. Spence is very skilled but Crawford is on another level, him and Loma are taking over the sport

Fact = Fight went EXACTLY, word for word like how Roy Jones said it would.

End of story.

That's not true but keep thinking so if you wish.

I think Crawford is a truly special fighter. However, lets see him at 147 and then revisit this. Horn is not the test because that train wreck won't make a decent fight.

I haven't been surprised by anyone Crawford beat but I was impressed how he was able to move against a long, rangy Postol. I knew Indongo was too awkward and slow the cause him in any trouble.

The way Spence crushed Algieri, Bundu, Brook, and Peterson was a surprise to me. Not that he beat them but the way he beat them. Algieri had been in with good to great fighters and none of them did what Spence did to him. Bundu fought a good fight against Thurman. Brook lasted 5 rounds with the MW monster. Think of all the fighters Peterson has been in with... Mattthyse was the only one that did to him what Spence did.

Crawford will try to out box his opponent and get a KO but Spence will crush your spirit in the ring. I'm picking Spence because I'll have to see Crawford hold up against such a relentless fighter with my own eyes.

Bud is my favorite active fighter right now but I have to see how he will wear those extra pounds @147. Spence is a natural big welterweight. I believe Bud is the better and more versatile boxer but Spence is strong and hits hard. He took Brook's best shots and kept coming forward. It all depends how well Bud carries his power as a welter.

It may come down to which fighter has the best *******.

I'm salivating at the prospect of this fight. If Crawford makes it past Horn, I'd love to see this next, seeing as Thurman is having a "get-back" year.

Still picking Spence.

I see Crawford giving Spence a one-sided boxing lesson. IMO, Spence face an opponent with a solid jab and slick movement. Peterson, at his age, coming off a year lay-off was silly for fighting Spence. I still feel that Spence is "The Truth" but Crawford is "No Lie"

lol!!My, the naivety from people who claim they are not "casuals". Boxing lesson?? You sound ridiculous.

Crawford gets dropped. Not that impressed with him. And he is by no means close to SRL.

Won't be as competitive as people think. Remember Hearns vs Duran? Size matters

Exactly. Nailed it. And Buds skills are not "far superior". They have different styles. Spence is a killer.
