Comments Thread For: Spence: I'm Not Worried About Crawford Right Now

[Bronx23]

I love how before the fight, everyone who wrote Porter off said he was getting stopped, he was tailor made for Spence, Spence was on another level, etc. Now it's : "Porter's a tough fight for anyone"

Spence didn't show any seperation last night. He didn't beat or handle Porter any better than Keith or Kell did.

Last night showed me that Spence isnt on another level. Him, Thurman, Porter, Danny are all around the same level. Spence probably hits the hardest but that's it. He's had the easiest path outta of them.

Finally he fought someone who wasn't afraid of him and suddenly he no longer looks like the boogeyman.

Reminds me of GGG when he fought Danny

Exactly, well said! There are no A level WW's within PBC WW stable...reason to keep fights within their own protected WW stable. Guaranteed, T Crawford would ruin Spence or any other PBC WW!!

I've been saying as dangerous as Spence is, he don't want that work from Bud.

U should be cuz hes gonna fck u up real good my old mate

I really hope Manny ****s Spence over and chooses to fight Crawford over Spence after he fights Mikey. Danny calling for Spence made it clear that behind the scenes Mikey is the one getting the fight.

Manny had a chance to fight Crawford when they were both at TR and he decided not to so I don’t know why he would push to make it now.

AhHahahahahaha.........

Because Uncle Al is protecting you from him.

They will wait till Crawford is 35 and is slowing down then take him on.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was at 154lbs as well.

It’s clear they will bill the last man standing at PBC welterweight against Crawford in what would literally be THE superfight of this era. Pripped need to be careful writing off Spence because of the performance last night. Styles make fights...Porter, who has truly gotten better since losing to brook, is a completely different style than Crawford. And let’s remember that this is Crawford’s third weight class, Spence is a natural welter that is outgrowing the division. Spence boxed beautifully against Garcia as well. The man can fight relentless and he can box. I favour Crawford on experience only in that fight....which can be overcome by size, strength, etc. Even on experience....we need to start realising the names on Spence’s CV....Porter, Garcia, Brook, Peterson, and possibly names lim D. Garcia and Manny P by the time he meets Crawford....
Some things to ponder....

Who will Crawford fight within the next year & a half though?

[JakeTheBoxer]

Sounds logic. Why would guy with 2 belts care about guy with 1 belt.

Full unification won`t happen any time soon.

No way this happens.

Why would PBC send Manny to fight a TR fighter when they can keep all that PPV money in house? They literally have every good WW outside of Crawford under their banner.

Nevermind the fact that if Pacquiao were to LOSE to Crawford, that’s like PBC handing TR money, clout, PPV exposure, and a legit (WBA) title to use as leverage to get more money out of an eventual Spence showdown w PBC.

There’s a better chance of Crawford fighting however many fights are left in his TR contract and finishing that phase of his career out, then signing with PBC, similar to what Pacquiao did.
