They are both so good and skilled and both have some flaws that can be exploited that you can go back and forth all damn day.

He fought a gym teacher and another ww whos not even in the top 20. I had that fight last night dead even at 3 rounds each. Everyone is going to be shocked when they see how bad spence beats bud. Mark my words.
Neither guy have faced anyone close to what the other brings.

I agree crawford has average power at welterwight and thats just not gonna do it as we saw brook who has slightly above average power, wasnt able to keep spence off him,people talk about Crawford like he floyd but a bum like benevedez would never be able to land a blow on floyd,crawford is more flawed than people think and his chin is a lot weaker than people know,there's a reason porter,garcia and Thurman dont wanna fight spence and it's because they been in the gym and seen what he freally capable of,crawford no too,he just got more heart than them but he dont have the size

I usually pick the boxer in these situations and the guy with better footwork and ring IQ. But I think Spence is physically too good on top of his technical skill for Crawford to beat. Kell Brook was a very good counter puncher with good power. I'd argue that he hits harder than Crawford at 147, but Spence still walked through him.
I lean toward Spence close decision and possibly a draw. This could be just like Canelo/GGG saga.

"Demolish" is very Harsh
I do favor Spence Jr SLIGHTLY but NOBODY currently at 147 is just walking through the top level guys in that Division. As seen with Thurman vs Porter, Porter vs Garcia, Garcia vs Thurman, all was close and tough fights all shown Durability against each other and GREAT CHINS and Stamina. So strap yourself in for a RIDE at 147 for the next few years, it is going to be a Fun ride. Fan of all of them so I don't care who comes out on top just as long as they all FIGHT each other.Last edited by sicko; 10-14-2018, 10:50 PM.

I also believe bud would have a very difficult time navigating through thurman and even porter. Bud looked very average in the first 6 rounds of that fight vs a guy who has no business even being in a boxing ring this soon.

Both guys have shown vulnerabilities but I think Crawford's the more versatile fighter and MORE EXPERIENCED overall. Spence is skilled as well don't get me wrong but he sorta is the "weight bully" of the Division being he can fight comfortably at 154 right now. I don't see the size difference being an issue for Crawford who I think will be a lot more tactical and will be pulling out a lot of tricks out the bag on top of switching Orthodox / Southpaw at the drop and be EFFECTIVE. I think Crawford puts on a master performance against Spence. I have a feeling it might happen sooner than later.
