    Crawford is the only fighter at 147 that has a real chance to beat spence. That's could be this generation's hearns-leonard.

    Peterson is a tough dude, in great shape and conditioning. Noone else at 147 can take this punishment besides Porter maybe.
    Thurman and Crawford better use their movement.
    Cement feet Danny Garcia gets utterly destroyed.

    Be real, Brook was never ever ever what Spence is today. He outboxed a sloppy Shawn Porter. Thats it. His resume is paper thin euro level.

    He shouldnt have gotten himself creamed by GGG, but honestly it didnt spoil much of anything besides a Khan fight (which is 50/50 and always has been)

    I don't know who who wins between Crawford and Spence.. but it's the best fight in all of boxing that can be made right now.

    SD victory LMAO. C'mon dude you gotta be more confident in your fellow Floridian. I got Spence brutally stopping him within 9.

    You didnt watch the fight then, as brook won rounds and backed spence up as often as spence did the reverse for at least the first 6.

    Maybe i was just fortunate enough to watch Brook often enough to be able to compare the two.....as after watching both the only difference between the two is timing and nationality.

    It was easy to 'Duck Brook' as he was over in the UK.

    Brook had to take the GGG fight in order to try and land fights on his terms.


    I still stand by the fact that until Spence can add variety, more combinations and a good uppercut.....Which Brook showed against GGG, Spence does not beat a pre-GGG Brook.

    What is for certain though, is that we missed a terrific fight.

    Of course I am, but when have you ever seen a non SD card on a PBC show when two marquee fighters are involved, preferably he violently KO's Ol' Swoll Nips, but I doubt it.

    The second you started talking about Brook's resume, is the second you admitted you never even watched the guy.

    The Porter win was far more impressive than any Spence has on his record currently, for the record.

    One Time will paddle Spence's ass but I feel that Spence will paddle Crawhype's ass because the later can't fight.

    Rigo never landed a meaningful punch on Loma. Peterson landed a number of flush shots and couldn't hurt Spence.

    Bob won't put Crawford in there with Spence. He's going to fight Horn, Pac, then Vargas.

    The thing is, the he has done so. He has shown a lot of not just head movement but also good footwork.
    He had no backup plan.
