    Not only is Crawford better than Thurman, he's got way more dog in him. He'll enjoy putting a spiteful beating on Keith for as long as the latter can take one.

    If this is true then nobody can say that Crawford does not want the Spence fight .

    How's Spence past fighting at welterweight when he's only ever fought at welterweight and plans to remain there for the time being?

    "He's only ever fought at Welterweight"

    exactly

    He isn't a 25 year old anymore

    He's 32 years old. That weight cut is painful for him now. Unlike Crawford who has come up.

    Spence has 1 maybe 2 fights left in him...He wanted that Pac payday and it would have been hang em up.

    Seems like a familiar theme in boxing.

    Crawford will chase Spence to 154. Crawford was talking about moving to 154 if he can't get fights at 147 long before Spence said he was getting fat.

    Whilst as a fan I would like to see the fight it's not a matchup that has ever really captured my attention or got my juices flowing

    For starters, when two fighters play the barking dogs either side of gate game (aka the double duck) for as long as they have I lose all interest and also a bit of respect for them

    Also, whilst they're very good fighters, I think they're both somewhat overrated. Terry is very talented, and I rate him highly in that regard, but he's fought cans of tuna for the most part and hasn't been anywhere near a salmon his entire career.

    Errol, however, is more a meat and potatoes no special effects plodder. Very good fighter for sure but he has only fought two natural 147/154 pounder world champions his own size in his entire career and he struggled badly against both. Everyone else world class he's fought is a career 140 or blown up 135 who his natural size, strength and power advantages are too much for. He's barely fought any legit punchers either, and certainly not ones his own size albeit to be fair the exact same applies to Terry.

    He hasn't ever proven he can put in a dominant performance against any truly world class or world champion his own size yet, whereas, conversely, there are other far more talented, accomplished and daring fighters in the P4P top 10 some of his fans routinely poop on who have literally toyed with and dominated not only world champions their own size many times but done so against way bigger and heavier world class and world champions many times and they've also fought lots of legit punchers and ones who are way bigger and heavier than them too. Until Errol does that hold your goddamn tongue

    I hope it happens and I'll tune in if it does but truth be told I'm more excited about seeing Jaron Super Boots Ennis against either than I am seeing them square of with each other.

    If spence wanted the fight it woulda been made. You cant compare the two. One lives a fast life the other a spartan life.

    Don't think anyone will consider signing Crawford until lawsuit with Arum is settled.

    Perfectly said, saved me the time to post,

    Agree to all your points, would also add that the fighter who has always wanted the fight knows he's better and will beat him.

    Hence why it still hasn't happened where as they could have fought if they wanted to three times already by this time, a usual with Boxing.
