Better Defense Spence or Crawford

Spence is a real deal. If he is healthy, he would be a problem for every welterweight in any era. Big, strong welterweight, great jab, great chin.

Crawford is ex lightweight who was hurt by guy like Kavaliauskas. he looks great in offense, in defense not so much.

If they fight, I put my money on Spence.

Spence gets hit with more small shots mostly from being aggressive while Crawford is more prone to getting hit with big punches.

Mannn Spence could give Floyd a hard fight

Whereas Terence gets his azz handed to him

Crawford would play the boxing game with Floyd, get figured out, and then neutralized into looking for that one big shot

Spence steady stream of pressure plus he can box means a good fight with Floyd

Who did Floyd fight at 147 that is better than Crawford is right now?

[Boxing-1013]

He was shot in last 4 rounds. Was he drained, does he find it hard to stay at 147? Or is it because of accident still? This question must be answered. If he is drained at 147, he shouldn`t fight Crawford he is gonna lose. Crawford makes 147 comfortably.

He must show up in better fashion next time.

Why do people on here do this

Why do people on here do this

I don`t like to repeat my self.

I think I was pretty clear. IF Spence is not drained at 147 and if he can show up in better fashion next time at 147, than ok.

And the higher weight class opponents could Crawford survive a 154 Cotto and DLH

[Dallas' 4 Eva]

I have watched Crawford eat basic right hands repeatedly in his last 4 fights at WW. His fights don't last long for the most part, but he takes an alarming amount of punches in a short period of time. Spence was making Garcia miss a lot, Garcia threw over 700 punches, Spence made Porter miss a lot too but Porter definitely had more success than Garcia, but Spence's defense is sound whereas I think Crawford's is lacking, his offense is more so his defense.

Floyd never fought the best versions of any of those guys man

As for Manny - I don't think Crawford goes 60 rounds with Algieri, Bradley (24 rounds), Vargas and Rios, bookending that Floyd fight. Cotto lost to Trout right after Floyd.

This version of Bud at 147 with no clauses is Floyd's hardest fight ever.

Crawford at 147 harder than Cotto or DLH at 154? No chance.
