    Brook had he not fought GGG, and Spence had he not had the car crash would both have given Crawford far more competitive fights than they ended up actually doing. But the outcome would have been the same, Crawford top dog at 147 in this era.

    Derek James told Spence nothing between rounds, overrated trainer, Spence was clueless in there.

    These guys are trying to take the shine away from Crawford and I didn't understand why until just now. Its about bragging rights. Crawford is a 2x undisputed champ, something that Loma couldn't achieve and Usyk hasn't done yet. Its all so they can say there guys are better. It's a joke isn't it.

    It's opinions though buddy everybody has one. Spence was a deserved champ at WW. His resume isn't great but he was still undefeated with some ok wins. Now all of a sudden he's a joke lol. Just nonsense.

    They are the jokers and lack credibility with BS analysis. If Crawford was Eastern European these guys will hail him as a Demi- God.

    If Spence was a Latvian Bantanweight nobody would ever heard of him.

    I’m a big Loma and Uysk fan. Been a fan of Crawford almost as long.

    Does this change anyone’s view of how a fight between Spence and PAC would have gone down? Judging by last night theres a real possibility that pac could have hurt and eventually stopped Spence. I know pac was shot to bits at the time of the Ugas fight, but he still had his power and pac always lands on his opponents. Ugas’ face was proof of that and I wouldn’t say that spence is more difficult to land on than Ugas is. Seeing how fragile Spences punch resistance is and how disorganised he looked when under pressure whilst hurt, I reckon we could have seen an upset vs Pac.

    If Spence were an elite level Latvian Cruiserweight, who's from a skill perspective, levels above Spence... nobody would've heard about him either.;)

    Not much you can tell a guy in that situation. Crawford was so much faster and accurate, team Spence was in complete shock.

    I don’t know any Latvians not to talk of Bantanweights.
