    A good exercise in critical thinking is try to find evidence that proves your own theory wrong, then see how valid it is, you couldnt do this without a mental breakdown lol.

    fact is pac and rest of team and top rank agreed to floyd's demands in 2010. floyd retired. floyd ducked a prime pac like he ducked every other prime threat. end of story. deal with it.

        Still not sold in crawford. Good win. But Brook looked like the pfp fighter in there until stoppage

          probably a combination of him aging and brook having some boxing skills despite being shot. crawford had good defense against horn but he is many levels above horn. he had complete control and turned him to where he needed, took very little damage.

            Actually forget that what about since Bud came up to 147 hes knocked out 4 out of 4 opponents.
            Of course he will get hit when he goes for the kill in all his fights.
            Would you rather him fight from the outside and potshot and not get hit and win by decision???
            I rate Crawford.

            I’m saying his defense isn’t overly good. It’s not bad at all.

            It’s not just when he goes for the kill that he gets hit. He has flaws and holes in his defense it’s very clear.

            Not knocking him for it, like I said I rate him. He’s a P4P level talent.

              I bet on Brook because those odds are too good to pass up, but this fight went kind of how I expected it to. Crawford was getting tagged clean and repeatedly, he switched to get a different angle he was still getting hit tagged clean repeatedly but he had a better angle to get over the top of Brook's jab and caught Brook with a punch he never saw coming. Brook lives and dies by that one-two of his so if you can neutralize the one or at least be able to counter with your own you'll break him down eventually.

              Still Crawford's defense is his offense most of the time because just like in the Mean Machine fight and the Benavidez(the first part of the fight at least) fights he was getting hit clean a lot as well and Brook had Crawford's eyes swelling up.

                11 month layoff for Bud. As soon as he switched to southpaw, he took away Brook's jab and within 2 rds of switching to southpaw, he won by TKO. If that's a bad performance then I guess it is what it is.

                  Right, meanwhile Spence is fighting Danny freaking Garcia

                  Crawford beat Brook with one solid punch, crumpled him like a tin can. Bud would have Spence re-living flashbacks from that car wreck with the first punch landed. Spence don't have what it takes, that's why he's fighting across the street against guys who are too afraid to fight Pacquiao.

                    Is it a decline or is his defense just not as good as we think?
                    Neither. He got butted, and Spence is scared of Bud.

                      It’s these undercover Spence fans who ask these dumb ass questions. Good point.
