Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Give Porter Good Chance Against Spence

[NachoMan]

Why is it always...the PBC's fighters telling fans who they don't need to fight? The 100's of excuses always come from the same side and varying from absurdity to out right fabrication.[/B]

Tank Davis won't fight Gary Russell-Same side of the fake street.

Thurman refused to fight Errol Spence- Same side of the fake street.

Danny refused to fight Errol Spence said "go fight Crawford 1st"- Same side of the fake street.

Charlo hasn't fought anyone at 160 and yet he was gifted a belt.

Ortiz won't fight AJ for 6 million but will rematch for a possible 3.

Wilder won't fight AJ for more then he will make in his entire career combined.

I could go on and on but you get the point.

There is a very distinct pattern and if you don't see it, it's because you don't want to. The networks see it and they are starting to say no thanks, not in our interest and as soon as the fans realize what's happening the game is over.

I was with you until the Wilder-AJ line.

Just another excuse for Spence to continue ducking Crawford.

Spence has to be scared of Crawford! Did he see what Crawford did to Horn, Benavidez, and Khan! Anybody who does that has to be the best WW in the world! And now he's fighting the "Mean Machine" too! Wow! That's a baaaaddddd man! The IBF Champion better just stick to fighting the WBC and WBA Champions and leave Crawford alone! He's the boogeyman! LMAO!

The good thing about this fight is that they are fighting and not just telling us who they don't need to fight.

That is just wishful thinking on Crawford's part. If Porter wins then that makes Crawford the best welterweight in the world because clearly he is better than Porter at least to my eyes. But Porter is not even money with Spence. He is a 10 to 1 underdog to Spence and I believe he will KO Porter and prove to be the best at 147 including Crawford.

We all seen what Spence did with lil Mikey too...do you honestly think Mikey would last 7 rounds with Crawford? Absolutely not a chance!

Why didn't we get Floyd vs. Pac a long time ago? Needles, cuts, fake contracts, and an outdoor stadium had to be built?

Why didn't we get Pac vs. Crawford at 147?

Why didn't we get Pac vs. Loma at 140?

Why didn't we get Ramirez vs. Prograis?

Why haven't we got Loma vs. Berchelt?

Why didn't Fury go through with the Wilder rematch earlier this year?

Why did Fury fight Schwarz and Wallin?

Why did Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, Gamboa, Mikey, Manny, and Andy Ruiz all leave Top Rank?

Why did Crawford stay at Top Rank?

Mikey moved from 140 to fight Spence! Crawford moved from 140 to fight Horn! That's facts, not opinion!

Don't tell me show me. Get in the ring and prove it or don't... but stop making believe you would if you only could. That's all I'm saying. Spence might be great but the barrage of excuses for dodging Crawford are incredibly similar to Thurman dodging Spence and deserving of equal criticism.

Spence's life time best competition have been Algieri, Ocampo, a lightweight and guy with a broken face.... I'm sorry but that's nothing to brag about.

After watching Horn beat up Manny which do you think took more courage?

My point exactly. Lil Mikey moves up to face a big WW in Spence while Crawford moved up (first bout @147) to face a big WW in Horn. End results=Crawford destroys Horn who was competitive with Pac while Spence preferred to show everyone he can box 12 with lil Mikey.
Again, no way in hell Mikey lasts 7 with Crawford!

Porter and Pacquiao are both WW Champions just like Crawford, with the exception that they've faced much stiffer competition at WW (not JWW) than Crawford! Bud made his bed when he re-signed to the same promoter that robbed him of his chance to fight Pacquiao, even though Bud played a role too (Pac needs to come to 140) in that never happening! If I was advising Spence, I would tell him to fight Porter and Pacquiao first! If Pacquiao loses that strap, take it from whoever has it! Now if Pacquiao don't want that work (or whoever the WBA Super Champ is), then Crawford can come and get it! You don't turn down an offer to fight Pacquiao, especially when Jerry Jones is all in! That's just ******!

I agree. Because he loses to Crawford straight up. So fighting other people and building his profile is a much a better approach
