    Careful now, a Calzaghe may more often dominate a Lacy than lose to one, but one-dimensional masters also do often beat multi-talents by making their singular style dominate proceedings, like Winky over Mosley or Nadal over Federer.

    I do pick Crawford to win by a landslide but also recognize Spence's power and machine-like game which may severely limit his opponent to Bud Light. And Spece his highly skilled too just not on Crawford's top elite level.

    If thats really the case then we would not be here discussing this awesome fight at all. But we are here because both fighters are great at what they do and both are special. I have no idea who will win and dont really care. just want the best man on that night to win and it be a great fight. just enjoy it while its on because we dont get these kinda fights as often as we should.

    What’s so special about that though? Lots of guys beat someone else to get their championship. Just so we are clear, I’m glad to know you think Golovkin was a special middleweight.

    Y'all don't know what "one dimensional" means...........y'all should stop saying that. Very few boxers at the highest level are one dimensional.

    World champions are special they are the exception not the rule. I don’t know why you will think that I don’t think Lil G is special. He simply cannot beat Canelo and there is no disgrace in that.

    It’s appropriate it’s what Andre Ward calls him.

    Ward who was scared to fight him. Lol. “I’ll fight Floyd at 160”. Golovkin offers 164. “No no no”.

    What is special about that? Lots of guys beat everyone they fought. What is great about Spence resume? Both Garcias were from lower weights. Everyone beats Porter. So what is the big deal here? Ugas? Ugas whose best win is an old Manny? I just don’t see what’s so special about Spence.

    Do they? Seems pretty exceptional to me…maybe you just know more people than I do. I don’t know many unified undefeated world champions.

    My first line in the thread lol Spence is NOTHING SPECIAL, some people on here so easily impressed... Kid does everything good, but nothing for me stands out.. he just has a good engine.. you need so much more to beat Crawford than that lol.. Crawford is a special fighter..

    People have no critical thinking skills. They get impressed by simple things without evaluating from all angles, they look at things as a fighter fan first. I think Spence is a good fighter, but special, lol, no. For what? Being a champion in a weak division? Yes, welterweight is weak and has been for awhile. Crawford has all around better talent to me and at one point I thought his career would have been special but he wasted that. With that said, I think he is the more talented of the 2. Just saw the weigh in and there isn’t really a size difference right now. Based on Crawford’s more all around ability with the switch hitting, and combined with Spence losing focus at times when he’s really cracked in the mouth, I lean Crawford. It will be a good fight, but it would have been better when they were a few years younger.
