    God I hope Spence wins

    Crawford will act like he's jesus christ if he beats Spence

    He's got a naff resume and Spence is shot.

    Will be interesting to see how Spence deals with someone picking him off...he'll go after Crawford and get buzzed then probably go negative and it will go the distance to a fishy decision.

    He couldn't stop one-legged Benavidez, what makes you think he stops Spence? Crawford has been hurt and is much more chinnier than Spence. I sometimes think you guys go off emotion a little too much

    crawford statement win. Then canelo next. To much money to be left on the table. The skill disparity will be more apparent then the weight factor. If crawford can handle spence he handles canelo easy.

    Well since none of you said it and it wasn't an option, what hell, let's go with a draw.

    Both guys have major strengths that can offset each other. Spence is a bit bigger and stronger and has better output. However, Crawford is more crafty, more elusive and a better counter puncher.

    Neither guy seems to have a clear advantage in handspeed or chin. Power advantage probably goes to Spence but it's not quite definitive.

    It makes for a boat load of close, even rounds. It may take two fights or a trilogy to see who's truly superior. But who knows. Let's see.

    I think that is being overhyped. Look at the replay, Spence spit out the piece because he got punched in the throat. Spence searching for the mouthpiece was foolish for sure though.

    Uh, you realize Benavidez was stopped in the 12th round right? And he probably has a better chin than Spence.

    Spence Jr is the most versatile active boxer at the moment. He is way above Crawford's level.

    Spence Jr wins by KO. Easy fight for Spence Jr.

    Crawford snap short & long punches & with his speed along with having better foot work seems to be the logical choice for me.

    This is a huge point that Postol brings here:

    "There is nothing that Spence can do to Crawford that he hasn’t seen before."

    That's nothing but the truth. Everything Spence has, Crawford has seen it already.

    And comfort has never been in there with someone who can apply pressure has an elite jab and has really good power. Like David said if I have a stone shield and you have a glass shield which one is going to break first

    If you think there really is a skill disparity you must not know boxing
