    I don't care about either of them enough to be even vaguely emotionally invested in the outcome. Quite frankly I'd prefer a double KO. The Welters I like (Thurman, Porter, Brook) have pretty much retired.

    Your posts about Spence surely seem emotional.

    Not sure how you're getting that, because it's never been my intention to convey emotion. You might be picking up on my annoyance towards his fanboys. But I have nothing against Spence whatsoever, in fact I probably personally like him far more than that sociopath Crawford. I'm going with my head here, not my heart. So that should really worry the hell out of the Spence fans.

    Crawford is more athletically talented than Spence whereas Spence is skilled fundamental boxer. I won’t be depressed if Crawford wins but I expect Spence to beat him. Even the 2 guys who have fought them in Brook and Porter confirmed that Spence is the harder puncher. Crawford is a sharp puncher, there is a difference.

    Come on my friend a hard puncher and a sharp puncher lol. Spence isn't featherfisted but he's not putting the same type of snap on his shots that Crawford is. It's just different methods to achieve the same result, which is winning.

    I can definitely see Spence winning. For me it's close to 50/50. Just hoping for a good fight

    Both guys who have fought them described Spence as the harder puncher. Don’t take my word for it take theirs who experienced the punch power of both men.

    Spence in my opinion is the best skilled active boxer currently, he is p4p the best, better than Usyk and Bivol.

    He will KO Crawford easily this Saturday night, and next day people will start talking Spence Vs Canelo, Spence Vs Bivol, Spence Vs Inoue etc...

    In the U.S. Showtime will carry the fight on PPV for $84.99. TNT Sport will carry the event on PPV in the U.K. for £19.95.

    Ouch....really do feel sorry for you Americans, I definitely will be staying up and paying to watch this 1.

    That's bold although Spence looks more healthier than Crawford at the grand arrivals while Terence's face was down drawn could be nothing especially after they hydrate though.

    How do you Americans watch the fight? Do you guys actually spend $85 on the ppv?? that should be the arena price.
    Since in Europe it will be early in the morning I will watch the fight on replay with the risk of it spoiling the fight (you usually will know if it went the distance. Or wake up very early on sunday to go watch the fight trough some crappy stream.

    Spence will walk down Crawford and KO him in 7. I think he's just going to be too physically imposing.
