    Yeah, Crawford deserves all the credit imo. He's P4P 1 right now.

    I never gave Spence a shot to win. Been saying that Crawford destroys him for YEARS.

    But that don't change the fact that Spence was drained to death.

    Crash had nothing to do with it. Spence looked good before the crash and up until the Crawford fight, he looked good after. Also, according to some video, Crawford was the guy having issues making weight. So, imagine what a Crawford that wasn't weight drained would have done to Spence.

    Was nothing to do with weight or car crash. Spence likes drinking and partying out of camp and fights less than once a year so that's most the time. Got to live the life or pay the price he's talented but not as good as Crawford.

    Log off. Spence would've killed pac had he fought him then. His eye was ****ed. He wouldn't pull out of a career high payday against a guy he would destroy.

    FACTS:

    Spence was having a bad training camp (no interviews and media workouts while Pac was pushing out daily YouTube videos),

    Spence got battered around the ring by a small southpaw.

    Spence pulls out of fight with 11 days to go.

    Spence hires an additional strength and conditioning coach for his next fight citing that he has tremendous difficulty making weight.

    You keep telling yourself that if it makes you sleep at night. Spence would've hurt pac had they fought. This Spence was ready to fight but lost to a better fighter period.

    Spence has no one but himself to blame for continuing to boil down to 147. That he was drained and looking like he was on death's door is just a fact, not an excuse. I wasn't pulling for Spence and have been saying for years that Crawford murks him.

    The man had a terrible training camp and the small southpaw that put hands on him had him reconsidering the fight.

    He didn't sleep well the night before because of fear.
