    LOL at destroying Spence. He's not destroying Spence and vice versa. That's a hell of a match up right there. Let's not act like Bud hasn't had moments where he has looked suspect against Mean Machine, Brook early and even Benavidez.

    You are rarely walking through the top guys. This will be a close competitive fight. Spence will have to be better but his pressure and jab is hell for anyone, Crawford included.

      I don't find it close. Nope.

      Kavaliauskas was landing at will on Crawford as was Khan and Brook and Benavidez.

      But none of those guys have the same level of defensive skill that Spence does. That's the difference.

      Crawford has CRAP defense, I'm sorry. Target practice for Spence and if he doesn't take the second half off, 8-4 Spence unless a judge robs him.

        Spence definitely can't take any rounds off against Crawford but I think it will be bit more of a chess match. Spence may not get to 700 punches and Crawford definitely won't either.

        Spence is going to have to out jab Crawford and land hooks in exchanges when Crawford pulls out.

        It's a too good of a fight not to happen. I slightly lean towards Spence right now.

          TC has explosive hand speed that can end the fight, Errol is pushing punches and is open as he brings them back a little slow Id like to see him get some snap but that can be ring rust he will be better now this fight is behind him.

          I can see either Errol or TC winning.

            Danny Swift is the hardest puncher at welterweight as confirmed by both Porter and Keef.

            He landed on Spence and it didn't make a dent.

            Crawford has not knocked out anyone at 147. I don't mean ref stoppage. I mean KNOCKOUT. He couldn't even knock out Khan without going to low. AMIR KHAN wasn't knocked out! A shell of the version that Danny Swift damn near killed.

            Crawford's power is overrated. He swarms you, he doesn't have power. That swarming won't work on Spence; Porter's swarming earned him a trip to the mat and Porter's the best at it.

            I'm sorry. I see Crawford having no answers to the attack. Spence is a dynamic fighter; his defense isn't as good as Floyd, but he makes up for it with his offense which is just beautiful to watch.

              And the reason I'm confident:

              Crawford didn't win one round before timing the ghost of Kell Brook into quitting.

              It's easy to look stellar against unranked, damaged, washed lower level opponents.

              Spence beat TWO TOP 5 WELTERS. IN THEIR PRIMES. One he beat after a major wreck and a 400+ day layoff and straight up cleaned him.

              We haven't seen Crawford tested, but we've seen him pieced up, wobbled and dropped by C-levels.

              thus why Crawford needs to fight and beat Porter or Keef, so we can see if he's just as good against legit THREATS.

                Crawford/Porter. Let's give Bud a chance to show us something.

                    No offence, I dont think your opinion can be taken too seriously when it comes to Crawford, too much of a hater, it's weird.

                    You're only focused on the bad things and not the good, and you're exaggerating the "weaknesses".

                    Crawford normally takes a few rounds to lock in, some fighters have this issue, I think it just takes his eyes a little longer to adjust.

                    Spence was mighty impressive, you always have to earn it against Danny but i think Spence beat him as smooth as anyone can. Spence is a handful, I think he would have been a handful for Floyd and Pac at their best, his natural size, iq, and ability to fight long, but also the versatility to fight well on the inside - if you ignore the fact that he doesnt have electric speed, he is a very complete fighter.

                    I think TC is special though, again very versatile a bit more erratic to Spence but I think more unpredictable also. He fights more on the fly and is more instinctive than Spence and thus he blows more hot and cold in his performances. But one things is for sure, once he adjusts to what his opponent is doing he takes over and dominates.

                    It is a close fight that can go either way - I'm curious as to why you think Spence dominates this fight? Explain it to me, and I'll explain to you why that wont happen

                      NOBODY has performed that well against Danny.

                      This guy IS the #1 in the division. Period.
