    I'm gonna go with Crawford. I like Spence but Crawford is just more dynamic IMO.

    Agreed but the shots im referring to were more arm punches than punches with real leverage on them.

    At this point, i favor Spence. Crawford never fought anyone like Spence or as skilled as Spence. Not sure how Crawford would handle Spence relentless press, size, speed and power for 12rds. I think Crawford should fight at least two more times at 147 Before fighting Spence.

    spence all day. spence is in a special place right now, whether it lasts remains to be seen, but right now, spence is untouchable at 147.

    Crawford can outbox Spence, for sure.

    If I could pick any fight to make right now it would be this one.


    And I'd go with Spence Jr.


    I understand what people are saying about Crawfords skills and I know they are stories and I know it's only sparring but if the Mayweather/Spence stories are true and Spence Jr gave Mayweather all he could handle in sparring then I'm sure he could give Crawford all he could handle in the ring.

    Spence Jr would get to Crawford sooner or later and stop him.

    In the middle of the ring, Spence gets picked apart. His best chance would be to keep it a close rugged fight because he’s not out pin-pointing and beating Bud to the punch. Bud is more accurate and dynamic.

    Crawford is in his prime, probably better than old Floyd Spence ran into in sparring.

    Even still, sparring is sparring. I was always team Spence in this one and I've been his biggest trumpeter for years, even picked him over Brook who I was super high on too. Crawford I think has edge here 55%. Spence I've noticed lately gets hit a lot and is not great on his feet.

    Spence is tailor made for Crawford.

    Best fight to be made, cant wait! Close fight. Id have to slightly favor Craw for now, too slick.
