    He’s not scared, he just knows it’s more a risk Spence not being a corpse.

    Are you saying Crawford didn’t beat a compromised Spence? Because if you are, you’re being dishonest

    Good one.

    So he’s happy to go to 154 to fight Jermell and the like, happy to go to 168 to fight Clenelo…but can’t go to 154lbs to fight a Spence who isn’t compromised by being drained . The guy got dropped by a jab lmao that’s how shot his punch resistance was that night. You’re telling me Spence is able to take big shots from a HUGE welter in Brook for several rounds but can’t take a jab from Crawford ..

    The fact is Spence was inactive and drained for the fight. 154lbs makes it more a fair fight. OK whatever I’m done with you dumb asses. Thick as pig **** the lot of you

    Stop lying, it's not about the weight with Crawford but about the money. If he fights Spence at 154, he wants more money. If he fights him at 147 then the contract remains the same. Nothing wrong with that. He shouldn't have to accommodate Spence for free. What yall smoking.

    Yes because that's the weight Jermell has belts in and Crawford wants to be undisputed in three different weight classes.

    First day?

    Yeah, nice try but you don’t understand. Crawford has said he doesn’t want to fight Spence at 154 but he’ll fight him at 147… now go to back to my response, it’s pretty clear what I’m saying to start with

    To be fair, I’m going off that tweet saying Crawfords insisting it’s at 147 or not at all…which if true, shows Crawford is only willing to fight a drained weak Spence ..will probably knock him out of with a jab this time round

    Because he gets the same deal as the first fight then. The most money as Spence won't agree to paying Crawford more at 154. Spence already said he wouldn't.

    You asked why Crawford would go to 168 for Canelo. It has been answered.

    You asked why he would go to 154 for Jermell but not Spence. It has been answered.

    You have not acknowledge or attempted to refute any of these answers, instead you ask a different question, hoping to misdirect.

    You put your fingers in your ears as nearly every response you've gotten has told you this.

    You cover your eyes and brain, read only what you want to and know only what you prefer to believe. You are not objective in any way.

    I'm done with you.

    Anndd you still don’t get it.

    Crawford has a choice to fight Spence at 147lbs or 154lbs. He has a chance to shut
    the naysayers up and fight a non-drained Spence at 154lbs.

    Crawford has stated that he intends to move up very soon. He also clearly has the frame to do so as he’s been a weight bully for a long time.

    So for what reason does he only want to fight Spence at 147lbs and not 154lbs? Surely it must be as it’s a “title defence”, no? No. No it’s not, he doesn’t want to fight Spence at 154 as he’d be fighting a healthier fighter who poses way more risk and won’t get knocked down by jab.

    He gains absolutely nothing fighting Spence at 147lbs, apart from likely victory. On the other hand , fighting Spence at 154 he has a chance to shut everyone up and beat a Spence who is not drained, can put up fight - he also gets accustomed to the weight he so wishes to move up in to fighting someone he’s already been in the ring with (albeit this was a skeletal version of himself)

    Crawford knows Spence at 154lbs is much more of risk than he was drained and sullen at 147lbs

    This is glaringly obvious

    Come to think of it, Brook - Spence rematch at 154 or higher.

    It was a simple question. When was Spence's prime?

    Well the first fight was at 147 where Spence held 3 belts so as a champion if you can't make the weight comfortably then vacate. Crawford has every right to want to defend his throne at 147. Maybe Spence should just agree and miss weight on purpose that way it still should count as a title defense for Crawford.

    how did Crawford drain Spence exactly?
    I have been seeing this narrative & can’t figure it out - the man was a 3 belt holder at 147lb & wanted to become undisputed - Crawford had the last peice of the undisputed puzzle.
    So I ask in all seriousness … how did Crawford drain Spence exactly? :dunno

    FFS i knew this would happen, Crawford was never going to get credit for battering Spence. Spence is washed. Its clear to see. Crawford took his soul, now the excuses are out. 147, 154, it dont matter Spence will take another beating.
