    I just hope Haymon influences his maggot ass 147 Mayweather jizz sippers Porter, Garcia, and Thurman to fight him.
    They literally cried from 2013-2017 about Floyd not giving them a chance and what do they do? Fight each other and try to avoid Spence and Crawford.

    You're missing the point though, Thurman isnt going to try and stand in the kitchen.

    Thats what will give spence problems.

    A non-prime, injured, weight drained brook gave Spence problems.

    spence is not 1/10th as good as they're selling them, keep buying the hype kiddos. Most of you started watching boxing in 2010.

    Spence has it all...but the most important thing is he looks to have a Great Chin...

    I hope Crawford's corner show the same care for their man if/when he signs up to face The Truth.

    Peterson didn't have the power to keep Spence honest. That's what was so disappointing with Brook's showing, because Brook won some rounds, and kept Spence honest. Even hurting him at one point.

    Not so fast Winston. Crawford has to get acclimated to the division first, and Horn will be tough.

    Really like Spence I think he beats Crawford. Thurman if healthy is good fight cause he can really punch but I would make Spence a favorite.

    Good performance by Spence. Peterson showed a lot of heart to hang in there but he should've let his hands go more to try and gain Spence's respect. He was getting hit a lot as it was so why not. That said, Spence was just too big, strong and sharp for him.

    i said before the fight that peterson was gonna catch a type of beating where fear starts to creep in. credit to him, he never turned tail, but there was fear all up in that corner. nobody beats spence at 147.

    Crawford is quicker, better athlete, better craft. More cerebral.
