Kellerman: Lot of good 140 & 147 fighters, but Crawford & Spence seem special.

    I'm with Max on this one.

    Crawford and Spence are a cut above the rest at 140 & 147 lbs. I'm not taking anything away from guys like Bradley, Garcia & Porter.
    They all have better resumes at this particular moment. I just believe Spence and Crawford will go on to achieve greater things.

    Do you agree or disagree?

    Spence and to a far lesser extent crawford will do great things. Ive studied Crawford a little lately due to the hype. I don't see him as a future great, i see him as a warrior that will have way too much a problem for the top 2 ww's, also he needs postol to sell me.

    I don't think his chin is good enough to move up. ****, tiny gamboa had him out on his feet but was way too small and beaten up to do anything sbout it.

    The jury is out for me.
    Spence , ggg and joshua are the true special fighters of this era

    Can crawford do something special first nearly losing to gamboa then coming back to knock out a small, chinny, reckless and undiscipline cuban isn't special.

    Everything he has done since is mediocre, broner did the same thing and was considered special to

    the thing is gamboa has the fastest hands of any guy he'll get in the ring with. And even though he is bigger it's not like he used his size to wear Gamboa down by leaning on him and tying him up(ala Tyson Fury with Cunningham), he beat him with his boxing

    He wasn't out on his feet dummy. People like you will say anything just to be heard and push their agenda. He was stunned nothing more which can happen against a guy with blazing hand speed and getting hit with a shot you don't see. He beat the **** outta Gamboa after adjusting to his speed log off Alt_master

    I'd like to see Spence and Sammy Vasquez mix it up. I think it would be a great fight between two very good prospects.

    Yeah, two talented guys. Though I view Spence as a bit more special than Crawford.

    :deal

    These casuals fans are really clueless about the sport. If a fighter gets stunned in a fight, he must be packing a glass chin. Crawford took Gamboa's best punch and recovered in a matter of seconds. Gamboa can still crack at that weight. He was the best lightweight in the world at the time Crawford fought him.

    Good competitive fight early on but I see Spence taking over the second half of the bout. BTW, Spence is 3-0 against Vasquez in the amateurs.

    Brook is going to beat them something naughty when they fight.

    Everyone hangin' off Spence's ***** atm, but lets wait until he fights somebody with a pulse first. Lot of decent quality in that division so making big fights to prove himself shouldnt be tough

    In the pros I rank Vasquez crawford and brooks one step above spence. Porter and spence right behind them though.
