    So a split decision win is better than a stoppage while ahead on all three cards? That’s a weird take.

    Nope. Crawford was my p4p number 1 going into the fight and obviously he is still my p4p number 1. Best fighter in the world for sure.

    I think it’s a pick em fight, I think Crawford is more versatile and makes better adjustments than Spence. But physically Spence is bigger/stronger. Gun to my head, I take Bud to eek out a close decision.

    He does. Errol “he’s on the wrong side of the street” Spence knows this too.

    thats what im basing my pick on. when brook fought spence i said brook would not be able to tie up spence like he did porter all night. he would get beat down on the inside by spence. go back and watch that fight. see how quickly spence changed brooks plan on holding. bud used the same strategy on porter that brook did, and spence will work him the same way he did brook if he tries to hold spence when spense gets inside.

    Agree with you completely. Spence is bigger with a more traditional style and a better work rate, while Crawford is craftier, slicker and more awkward. They both have strengths that can offset each other. It will be a difficult fight for either of them. Probably a razor thin decision either way.

    Ahead on all cards as a Top Rank fighter on a Top Rank promoted card. He won 2 rounds before the stoppage. Use your eyes to make your judgements, thats what they are there for.

    Crawford is ducking no one - the fault lies with Arum.

    It was an easy fight to score, all the judges scored all the same rounds for Porter/Bud other than the 8th. Otherwise every round was unanimous. To suggest Crawford won two rounds is idiocy and you should be embarrassed to state that publicly.
