Comments Thread For: Crawford: I'll Make Errol Spence Look Like an Ordinary Fighter!

[Ray*]

Only AFTER spence has taken proper tune ups and his match fit. Don’t try and cherrypick him the same way Wilder ducked offers to unify and cherrypicked Fury. Knowing the man was NOT physically ready.

If cherrypicking hype job Crawford ever steps up and fights the elite welterweights he will get exposed and look ordinary. Put on ***** street by inactive and blown up Gamboa who was way smaller. Knocked down by Eurobum Mean Machine last fight. Wasn't dominating inactive peg legged Jose Bumavidez. Had to resort to lowblows to stop washed up glass jaw Amir Khan. This guy only fights faded former champs, b class or lower trinket holders, and bums for a reason. He has a glass jaw and is massively overrated and hyped for such a piss poor resume. He re signed with Top Rank and ESPN exclusivity to keep cherrypicking without media backlash and easy $. He's lucky the boxing media won't cross Bob Arum's hype jobs and call him out on being nothing but mouth and unjustified hype.

Bud has looked ordinary at times vs ordinary mfers, but all's fair in war & sh^t talking so I'll allow it.

Yep. But every fight is different.
People seem to forget that.

Crawford doesn't want to take less money than Spence. Even though all the numbers show that Spence has a history of being the bigger draw.

Unfortunately I'm a stranger to the money side of boxing.
I know it's important as it feeds the fighter and everybody around him.

But it can't all be about the money, surely.
It doesn't seem that Crawford cares about the money as much as many other fighters do.
And I think Lomachenko is similar in this respect.

You won't do $h1t

"as long as Crawford accepts that he is not the A-side"
- So are you saying Crawford wants a larger piece of pie, commercially?
Or is there more to it?

Same old **** on nsb. When these two guys decide to quit talking **** and sign a contract to fight, only then will I give a **** and offer any opinions. This fight can happen at anytime, but not until both camps get they **** together and make it happen. Otherwise, what the **** ever.

[Timur78]

Wrong.

They'll make the fight as long as Crawford accepts that he is not the A-side. Something he refuses to do despite the fact that he is not as big a draw as Spence.

People on Spence's side won't make the fight until Crawford is older and/or shows signs of slippage.

i.e. what Mayweather used to do...

Wrong.
