    Spence moving to 154, clearly hinting that he was killing himself making 147 with all that inactivity.

    Crawford fought the shell of Spence who had 1 fight in 2.5 years and was clearly drained, hence the move up. Boiling himself down from 170-80 to 147 has a toll on you, that combined with Spence's activity = Crawford beat a handicapped Spence.

    Weight drained coupled with brain damage from all the accidents. Man o man, Spence is something else. What else was he up against in the Crawford fight? I heard his gout was reeking havoc on both his knees, his sight was impaired due to the retina and ingesting copious amounts of hot sauce gave him the runs. What else was going on?

    Timmy picks up where Bud left off and sends Spence into retirement.

    I don't understand complaining about being drained at the weight you hold 3 belts at. Nobody seems to be drained until they lose. If you aren't 147 you shouldn't be there holding belts.

    And the opposite is haters that can't give credit to a fighter for winning. Most of the threads about the fight since the Crawford win has been excuses as to why Spence lost. Someone even posted a doctor talking about Spence having brain damage. The man did no examination, just an analysis over the TV. Just so you know, I asked people that were saying the accident took a toll on Spnece, what did they see diffrent? I got nothing. They talk weight draining. Ok, Crawford has been called a weight bully for some time and he was the guy that struggled to make weight. Seems to me, an objective person, such as yourself would say, both guys were drained, therefore no advantage was had.
    I did pick Crawford to win. But if Spence won, and all the BS excuse were flying around, I would be arguing the same way I am for Spence. It was damn near a 50/50 fight going in. If there were issues prior to the fight, the odds would have been way different. But nothing until the fight was over?
    As far as the basic analysis and P4P goes, I never said Crawford was #1. I did however say, he has an argument for being #1. But as long as that Little monster from across the ocean is around, Bud has his work cut out for him.
    I will admit, I do have problems, but man worshipping isn't one of them. Mine is having a great dislike for fans discrediting a fighters good win. I don't like excuses. The fighters should be ready. If a fighter isn't ready, it's not his opponents fault.

    Damn!!!! Spence had Texas malaria too? I'm surprised he didn't collapse walking to the ring.

    Wilder would have said Eminem gave Crawford special powers.

    Yeah, but you're afraid to put your momma's good name on it because you KNOW that Spence looked unhealthy walking into the ring. You're not a real man. Just a female dog with an agenda. A brain dead one at that.
