    My dream would be for Spence to go to Australia and beat the living hell out of Jeff Horn.

    Spence isn't anymore overrated than the other supposedly elite 147lbers, Crawford included. These guys systematically avoid each other instead feasting on noncompetitive fights. Its boxing in 2019, shrugs.

    I loved how Spence tripped up during that encounter w/ Bud when he was like "Why wouldn't I take easy way?" in reference to Shawn Porter. Bud just straight up laughed at him.

    How "badly" did Gamboa hurt Crawford? Did he get knocked down? Well Gamboa did FOUR times. As for the GRJ rumor just keep spreading the lies

    Bud toyed with him could've done more damage if he wanted. Spence will show no mercy and bludgeon him with power shots.

    I don't think that Thurman would survive the body assault of Spencel

    Irrelevant. You wouldn't catch Bud saying out loud that he'd prefer to take the easy route.

    Cuban leprechaun Gamboa hurt him badly enough with that innocuous little love tap for him to do a little chicken dance and it take 60 seconds for his head to clear properly.

    And yes you are indeed correct, Crawford did indeed knock said leprechaun down x 4 but that's not saying much given the huge size and weight advantages he had over him and the fact that Glassy Gamboa has always been chinny even when fighting men his own size. But what is saying much is Crawford was wobbled down to his soul by a solitary right hand from a blown up 126 pounder leprechaun and best believe if they both weighed the same as each other Crawford would've been dropped flat on his back by that shot and wouldn't have been able to beat the ten count. And if Gamboa had the amount of weight on Crawford as Crawford had on him he wouldn't have beaten it if the ref counted up to 100 lol

    And here's Tel's daddy GRJ's ever so diplomatic response when someone actually asked him about him sparking him

    Crawford will go all loosey goosey on the featherfisted Spence like he did against that other featherfist Postol and Spence will be chasing shadows and swiping at thin air all night before frustration gets the better of him and he quits on his stool at the start of the 10th. This is a Nostradamus level prediction and mark my words it will come to pass.

    Changed my mind l. He is in the elite leauge. He has a variety of shots and his offensive similar to Floyd.
