    Footage of Crawfy looking lean and mean and exactly the same as he looks in the ring on fight night up at 147 to me and if he's coming into the ring any lighter than he looks here then it can't be by more than a few pounds


    Weighing in the ''160s-170s'' so probably bare minimum the late 160s

    Crawfy will very likely weigh more than Errol Spencer in the ring

    Bud needs to quit messing around and get a fight with pac or spence.

    Yeah because 147 is all that matters, Crawford paid his dues in other weights, he deserves nothing less than 50/50.

    The way Bud boxes that motherf**ker can box until hes near 50. He never gets hit and is rarely in a hard fight

    PBC fighters, PBC handlers, PBC fanboys... They're all afraid of Crawford. They're not even "letting the fight marinate", they just pretend like Bud doesn't even exist. PBC owned the welterweight division for like half a decade so they loathe the idea of Bob Arum's favourite son showing up, schooling their "elite" welterweights and making them look average.

    Spence will probably never fight again after his accident. Crawford Spence would have been an excellent fight. It’s a shame it will never happen.

    That’s not how it works, you don’t get to call the shots no matter what unless you’re the sport cash cow. Crawford is toast PBC is gonna wait him out. Why even bother fighting Crawford if your PBC they literally have all the fighters that matter. No one can be mad at Spence or Thurman if they decided they rather fight PBC fighters first. All Crawford had too do was not resign with TR or on a fight by fight basis. It’s real easy and smart

    Feel bad for both Spence and Crawford.

    For every Pac v. Mayweather that benefited financially from two old men fighting long past prime..... there is a Joshua v. Wilder spoiled by an upset, or a Spence tragedy.

    You never know what is down the road around that next corner...

    If your next fight is your last fight, then you gotta leave your dependents with the most money possible.

    Anyways, as said in previous posts, I dont believe this fight was ever goning to happen anyways. Crawford will be fine and has a more than decent lineup of potential opponents for him.

    Kavaliuskas, Ramirez, Hooker, Prograis....and now with this recent turn of events, im sure Garcia, porter, thurman all rematch and winner will have to eventually cross the street for a fight.

    Spence`s career is probably over due to a horrific car crash.

    His legacy is ruined now since it looks like Errol`s career is over sadly.
