    You people are insane if you think Taylor has a chance against Crawford. Crawford crushes Taylor in 7 rounds. That won't even be a competitive fight. Crawford does to Taylor what Canelo did to Bllly Joe Saunders

    Hardly anyone thinks Taylor beats Crawford, that doesn't mean people can't talk about the fight. Sure you get people in youtube comments saying it but most of them are scottish/british and don't watch boxing much. Crawford didn't look to great against Porter either, if he had a bad night Taylor could maybe win, big maybe though especially in america.

    I would rather see the Taylor fight, the spence fight will more than likely be a let down. The Taylor fight and build up would be awesome just as long as Taylor doesn't get blasted out early like Brook did.

    Definitely biased but can't see this in anyway being a easy fight for Crawford think it be far more competitive than your making out. Taylor is flying at moment huge at 140 so don't see any issue at 147 ,Crawford has fought at 135 so not as if Crawford is going be alot bigger and although would still make Crawford favourite would see this at moment as 60 40 fight in Crawford favour its not a mismatch by any means

    can't see Crawford dominating Taylor though I'd take him winning a close points decision.taylor is a different beast to a billy joe saunders.

    Took 12 to finish off pegleg Benavidez, 9 to stop Kavaliauskas and 10 to finish Porter.

    As a Brit and a fan of Josh Taylor....... it has to be that fight.

    However, the fact Bud v Spence has still never happened just goes to prove everything that's wrong with boxing these days.

    In an ideal scenario you'd have Bud v Spence and then Taylor coming up in weight as the undisputed 140 champ to fight the winner.

    Interested to see what happens with bud and where he ends up fighting.not sure I'd like to see him join the pbc then every belt is on hostage again.welterweight could be **** hot in the next few years if it's not getting clogged in politics.
