Welterweight future

And what about Alexander Besputin, Daniyar Yeleussinov, Eimantis Stanionis

Both Crawford and Spence are very beatable imo, they both struggled in their last fight.

 

That would be a very easy fight for Crawford. I think Crawford is a bit overrated, but I feel the Charlos are massively overrated they are just hypejobs.

Spence and Crawford would both do well at 154 at the moment as it is weak. But there are many strong prospects on the way up at 154. If they are to move up they should do it now.

160 is stronger than 154, I think that is asking way too much of Spence to beat Canelo when he just struggled with Shawn Porter! I don't see him beating the top middleweights.

 

Couple of points Porter’s skills and athleticism are a bit underrated and Spence has dimensions the guys Canelo is beating don’t have.

 

There is a lot of talent on the rise at 147 so that new blood is coming I believe

Alexander Besputin, Vergil Ortiz Jr, Jaron Ennis, Eimantis Stanionis, Daniyar Yeleussinov, Radzhab Butaev, Ivan Golub, Josh Kelly, Custio Clayton, Aaron Mckenna

Plus of course like you say. Taylor, Ramirez, Prograis, Baranchyk >> may be moving up a weightclass.

 

Porter is decent and tough but nothing special at all.I feel like he 'fought out of his skin' against Spence and still narrowly lost. I don't see him repeating the performance again.

What dimensions do you mean regarding Spence?

 

Yep agree good doctor and as I said a shake up is much needed.

 

I said his skills and athleticism are a bit underrated and yes he fought out of his skin against Spence fight but still lost clearly.

 

Yeah, I thought Porter should have gotten the nod. Porter is a known commodity and established top level opponent. The guy Crawford fought wasn't.

 

He will never fight Canelo. Canelo will call his bluff and Spence will back out. Dude is more then likely done though cos of the accident IMO.

 

I don’t think you know how ambitious Spence is!

 

Dude is over 30 recovering from a life threatening car accident and has had replacement surgery for his jaw/teeth. He is likely hiding other injuries like the supposed back injury. You think he will be effective at the top level against any welterweights, let alone Canelo who is two weight classes bigger?

 

Yes I do because there were no fractures thankfully. His talents have not diminished and his spirit is intact. I look forward to him proving doubters like you wrong and the beauty is either way we get to find out.

 

Neither the one legged Benevidez, or Kavaliauskas was a top level guy, or a top contender for that matter. Spence would have steamrolled both.

 

Spence is the top welter till Ortiz comes into his own. Neither one will take a loss anytime soon.

 

Besputin struggled in his last fight too and he popped dirty on top of that.
