I honestly think Crawford could outmuscle Spence on the inside as well. He’d either outbox him or outfight him. But that’s just me.
I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one, GK. Both guys have shown some chin vulnerability, imo, but I think Spence has the better pedigree. Crawford is an awesome offensive force. The question is can he take what Spence will bring. This is by no means a walk for either fighter but I have to go with Spence. I would love to see this fight happen.
Disagree. Spence is a true elite boxer. A win over Horn doesn't really mean much. He just one notable win, a gift decision over a great but old, faded, and much smaller boxer. Crawford is very good, but he's being overrated now.
Good point,Brook is very skilled fighter and in the end Spence just walked him down,I’ve a feeling Crawford v Spence would be a real stinker actually.
spence stops bud inside 10, in a fairly even fight up to that point. top rank matchmakers know this as well, so look for every reason you can think of for why that fight isnt happening.
I think Crawford is the more versatile and skilled fighter of the 2. But Spence showed against Brook he can dig deep and keep the pressure on even when being out fought and break down a fighter when needed.Spence will likely have to walk through some big counters to get to Crawford, if he can take them and pressure Crawford then he could again break down the more skilled and versatile fighter. But I think Crawford won't be easy to breakdown, he won't be struggling at the weight like Brook was and physically he is very strong and if he can out muscle Spence on the inside and force Spence back like Brook did for the first 6 rounds then Spence likely is the one that get's ground down. If I had to favour anyone it's Crawford. He might not have the resume at the moment, but from what I've seen he has the skills to compete at this level.
