    Bundu was ancient, but was still a solid fringe contender. Bundu, would have beaten Indongo's arse. Peterson got beat down by Matthysse long ago. That isn't indicative of the more recent Peterson, that arguably beat Garcia, that had previously beaten the Matthysse you mentioned clearly. Algieri, I'm not a big fan of, and he did look like a total goof ball against Pac, that being said, Algieri would have boxed Diaz, Indongo's, Postol's, and Horn's ears off.

    As far as who would win, I'm leaning toward Spence. Crawford may very well box his ears off, but nobody at this point would be confident in that pick with Crawford having such a paper thin resume. We know whats Spence brings to the table, and while he looks more one dimensional now, he's shown heart, and grit, against a real tough opponent. Crawford hasn't shown us **** against a top level guy. He's moved up to welter, and continued his string of lackluster opponents. Even resigning with the promotional outfit that **** in his face, by putting his fight on an app, while giving the more favored son the primetime ESPN slots. Crawford knew where to go if he really wanted to fight the best welterweight opposition. He instead opted for the Felix Sturm route. Can't blame him, if he is gonna make 3 mil guaranteed to fight mid level opposition.

    You fabricated a position I never took, regarding blaming Crawford for his weak arse resume. Who promoted him his first twenty bouts doesn't change the fact that he has thirty three bouts, and his resume is weaker than Spence's, although Spence has nine less fights. At 135 he didn't fight the best available opposition. At 140, his opposition was trash to mediocre. At 147, his opposition is mediocre. Undefeated doesn't mean much if the guy hasn't beaten anyone. No, Indongo was garbage before he fought Crawford. Postol, was mediocre before he fought Crawford. Diaz was not good before he fought Crawford. You can be a fan of a boxer, without making yourself look silly, and nonsensical with your arguments. Facts are that a fighter can be undefeated and be a bum. A fighter can have a title and not be good. It's how boxing is now days.

    Bottom line is that, nothing you typed refuted anything I stated. Spence has a better resume in less fights than Crawford. I doubt Crawford would beat Porter.

    So the weight Bhully doesnt want to fight on ESPN -right so thats a good enough duck. Why can you not go over to ESPN? Its a bigger boxing platform than Showtime is.

    I don't like that Spence is drunk like that. I doubt Crawford is getting ****ed up like that partying, he's still grinding and working on his craft.

    Nobody is saying that he is wrong for unifying. What I'm saying is that his resume is not as good as Spence's, even though he has more fights. I'm refuting those Crawdaddy gobblers who keep bringing up that he beat undefeated opponents and unified, as if he beat down a murderers row, when the reality is that Postol is a guy who is mediocre, stiff, robotic, and would be little more than a fringe contender in another 140 pound era, and Indongo is a guy who scored a lucky punch in Russia, and has looked like absolute trash against the only two top level opponents he has faced. Crawdaddy gobblers even try to tout Peterson's left overs as a highlight win for Crawford.

    Lol Gamboa achieved jack **** at 135. Postol got a gift against az Uzbek dude and lost to a prospect. Kell Brook is 10 times better than both of them.

    Fair enough. All this resume, A side B side is all negotiating tactics. none of that matters when they get in the ring. Just get these two in the ring and then we all see who the better man is. My money is on Crawford by onesided boxing lesson. Terrible style matchup for Spence.

    ESPN is trash. They want people to pay for everything even obscure sports that you could see before for free. Eventually it's gonna be more expensive that the premium networks for lower quality sports.
