    I don’t see Russell hurting Bud like Gamboa did as Bud was much smaller back then weight wise and Gamboa probably hits harder than Gary but Russell is a better boxer than Gamboa and smarter plus uses his speed just as well if not better!

    It’s an interesting fight because I can see Russell winning the early rounds, say from round 1 - round 6, after that is where Russell is gonna start taking punishment that’s why I say this fight should be 8 rounds to be fair for Russell!

      Come on. A 147 Crawford getting worked for 6 rounds by a FEATHERWEIGHT?

      There's no way his fans would still support him after such an embarrassing out. Even though that would be a CLEAR expose.

      The only acceptable outcome is either a blowout - 12-0 - a legit stoppage (i.e. not a low blow stoppage) or a knockout. Anything else can't be acceptable.

      That's a lose-lose fight for Crawford IMO

        Terence, listen man, talk to Arum ASAP. Let's finalize this. Would be even better if you can spot him a few pounds. 143?

        It may lead to Gervonta Davis fight, at 147, and then Spence down the road, if he gets well in a year or so.

        C'mon Bud!

          Manny is sitting out everyone after calling them out, he will fight Mikey Garcia because the name guys got sick of waiting on Manny dropping their name, he does it all time, first it was Errol then GGG then TC, Mikey will be the one as its the easiest fight against a small guy.

            I'll always remain a Crawford fan, even if he struggles with Russell.

Brook has fought no welterweights or very good fighters of any weight since being KOed by Spence. He told us he was very weight drained at 147 years ago. He does not deserve a title shot at Crawford. Spence fights champions and top contenders every fight and Crawford should fight better guys than he has been fighting. Everybody knows Crawford is very good and KOing washed up Khan and Brook proves almost nothing. How hard did he try to fight Thurman,Ugas or Porter?
              TBH he is gunning for a fight with Pac. I just dont believe that there is enough funding to actually make that fight, unless they go overseas.

                And Crawford has refused to fight outside of the US.

                    Brook might have last 1 or 2 great performances in him.
