    cringy AF.

    The whole ESPN crew was super embarrassingly pro-Crawford. Post fight, they acted as if Bud had just slain a giant.

    Good observation.

    My answer to every one of these threads is going to be the same:

    FIGHT SPENCE OR SHUT THE **** UP.

    How is this guy some kind of P4P guy when he won't fight the only challenge in his division?

    P4P is use like a hooker these days,Bud didn't dominate any great fighter that i know.Anyway,i must be blind or something because i did not see something special in him.

    It was his post fight comments that I found cringy.

    ESPN in general is a joke. Tuned out their writers and commentators a long time ago.

    His P4P top 10 :facepalm:


    Ward: 1. Crawford, 2. Fury, 3. Alvarez, 4. Usyk, 5. Spence, 6. Inoue, 7. Lopez, 8. Estrada, 9. Taylor, 10. Davis

    FTR he had Rigo #1 before Loma toyed with him and then made excuses after Loma made him look like a rank novice and continued to rank Crawford above him even though Loma clearly fought superior opposition and unlike Crawford was the complete antithesis of a weight bully and when he moved up in weight was beating fighters who were bigger and longer or way bigger and way longer which is the complete opposite with Crawford :facepalm:

    I mentioned it in the fight thread, commentators were on the verge of orgasm every time Crawford threw a flurry of air shots. It’s bad for those new into boxing to have the commentary sway an opinion through bias, it happens in every fight these days.

    Spence is the one who won't fight Crawford.

    It was a very good win, but a bit premature thanks to Kenny Porter. Porter still had 2 more rounds to turn it around, and pappy took that away from him. Smh

    It's like they have something to sell...it's a shame for newcomers to be part in there's scheme.

    One of these days, there's going to be a hot mic, and we'll all hear Max Kellerman begging Bud and SOG to double team him, spit roast style.:sisi1

    What do you expect from ESPN? These outlets always express bias.
