    Okay...I'm not saying Spence is great fighter. Spence's prime was prior to the car crash

    I'm not specifically saying Crawford drained Spence. I'm saying Crawford fought a compromised Spence, his fault or not, the point is, the fight would have been way more competitive fighting a healthy fit Spence. So all this talk of Crawford being P4P number one after beating a corpse is utterly ridiculous

    What I took from this is that Crawford just wants to do sumn special.
    So why not lets him do dat?

    Exactly . Would have been an amazing fight to watch back then. Weve been robbed of that. Instead we got a one sided beat down against a finished fighter

    i Can understand what you are sayin
    However Crawford beat “the man”
    Nobody brought up the car wreck or being drained when he wiped Danny garcia
    & won fight after fight leading up to Crawford undisputed bout.

    Now Crawford makes easy work of him
    & the flood gates of excuses over flow-eth.

    Bud smoked him
    We will never know how the fight would have played out had it happened when bud started originally screaming for it.
    Even predicted the lame excuses:

    You have to remember it was PBC / Spence
    That kicked this fight down the road.

    “He wrecked his Ride swerving bud Crawford … he was standing on the wrong side of the road”

    I made that joke right after Spence’s accident.
    Spence has only himself & his “advisor” to blame on all counts no excuses the man said so himself.

    There was similar talk about Spence being the truth at ww after beat a bloated damage eye socket plus a stabbed up deflated brook
    See how this works
    Any shine took from Terence who as achieved in two weight classes that the big fish who struggled at 147 to do in the division he was bullying
    He said canelo and ggg could be future possibilities
    He ain't brave enough like the brits

    Only an idiot like you thinks Spence has a chance regardless of weight. He gets destroyed at 154 or 160. Crawford wants Spence to decline at welterweight so he can chase legacy fights. Good on him

    Crawford alluded to Spence's weight loss struggles over 5 years ago. Bomac also said that it's not their fault Spence was drained, which is true, and it's an admission that Spence was a corpse on fight night.

    If Crawford doesn't budge on 147 after saying he'd fight Charlo at 154 and/or Canelo/Charlo at 168, then it's a ho ass move.

    Porter was winning against Crawford before the fishy ass stoppage. So many people had Porter up. He got dropped and looked more hurt when he got dropped by Spence, yet his dad throws the towel in. Suspect AF.

    Spence marginally beat Porter, some had him winning. Point is against the same opponent, Spence and Crawford performed fairly equally as good.

    The only idiot is the one thinking Spence was not compromised in so many aspects. You sound so determined to give a fighter undue credit. If Spence came in there blind and Crawford beat him you'd be rimming Crawford as you are doing now. You are not being objective.

    Here are the facts:

    -Spence's last fight came 16 months before Crawford and he had only one fight in 28 months! That one fight he looked mediocre and almost got knocked out by middle aged pillow fist in Ugas.
    -Having one fight in 28 months is going to affect your performance. This is literally the definition of inactivity - your reflexes will be slower and you won't be as sharp, in effect rusty.
    -Spence was clearly drained, he looked like a skinny sunken version of his usual self before he stepped into the ring. Clearly evident, and it is quite telling straight after the fight he explicitly referred to moving up to 154. Look at Spence vs Brook, then look at Spence vs Crawford...now lie to me and say he wasn't drained vs Crawford.
    -Spence got his brains scrambled in a car crash and has looked far from his best in subsequent fights, frequently getting buzzed and negatively reacting like spitting his gumshield out and turning away from his opponent. NOT a good sign.
    -Inactivity, being drained and brain damage is going to affect someone's performance. I can't believe I'm telling you this.
    -Lastly, yes styles make fights...however...Kavalauskas who? , chinny shot Khan, part time commentator Shawn Porter were ALL more competitive than this version of Spence. This in itself is quite clear evidence that the Crawford that fought Spence was FAR from 100%. This is not a case of styles make fights. Spence was compromised. Or you are quite literally saying the fighters above are better fighters than Spence. Which would mean Crawford's win over Spence means jack ****.

    If Spence wasn't drained then Crawfish can fight him at 154

    Even not drained at 154 Crawford will beat him because skills pay the bills...but why make a fuss about it.

    I don't see Spence doing 147 and the rematch clause means Crawford could hold ground and force it to be at 147...I'd then expect Spence to pull out...or take a desperate payday and probably have his corner pull him mid fight.
