    Dude looks damn good.

    He is the best at 140 hands down.

    How does he do at 147.

    I think he is right up there with the best of them.

    He'll counter the crap out of Spence. Thurman will be his toughest test up there because of their IQ's.

    Spence will beat him too big too strong. He will get the better of Crawford in the exchanges and of course his body work will slow crawford down. Crawford-Thurman is a pick em fight imo.

    I disagree Spence is a problem for anybody at welterweight.

    I kind of think porter would cause Crawford a little bit of problems.

    Thurman beats Crawford I believe.

    Crawford beats Garcia easy.

    He will be a problem at 147

    I kind of think Spence would stop Crawford in a very grinder type fight. Spence has some mean body work

    Bud has some mean bodywork as well. Spence is very basic in what he does. Bud has better ring IQ. movement, accuracy, lateral movement and speed.

    Spence can box and is very smart. Crawford gets stopped.

    I think he beats.. Thurman.. Pac.. Horn.. Garcia.. Porter.. Think he loses to Spence. Spence style is all wrong for Crawford.. It's educated pressure.. That's gonna undo Crawford.

    If crawford goes to 147 and he proves he can make easy work of someone like Danny Garcia I might have to change my pick but until then I'm sticking with Spence

    That's fair enough. Bud is untested at 147lbs and I can see why people would choose him over the more established boxers. Skills though, Bud has the best boxing skills from 135lbs to HW.

    Spence isn't too big. Crawford is a huge LWW and Spence is a huge WW. Size difference is not big enough to overcome Crawford's superior skill.
