    Why can't Spence be this good against his similar level opponents ?

    Bud doing what he was expected to do but he did look impressive stopping Avanesyan. Crawford still showing that he’s one of the best finishers in boxing right now.

    Ive always thought Crawford would do a number on Spence when they finally meet in the ring. Spence can’t keep running from Crawford forever.

    I will always keep it 100 and by no means am I dissing Spence's skills. He is a class A warrior with excellent skills and is relentless in his pursuit of victory. However, to even suggest that Crawford is not of that caliber is foolish when you bear witness to his dominance and skills. To not acknowledge that is to reject the evidence of your own mind and that's very foolish. That straight left, right hook combo was setup and perfectly executed. It didn't just happen by accident. That same combo would have dropped any fighter that Spence has fought (with the exception of Danny Garcia) and even the haters know that but they won't admit it. It might not have dropped Spence but it would most definitely make Spence respect him because more than one those shots like that will surely send him to dreamland. One other thing. Crawford showed a chin. He took heavy shots and didn't even blink. Yall need to stop playing that man cheap.

    Are you certain about Boots Ennis euthanising Bud? Bud is a great fighter but he clearly wants no part of my boy EJ or Boots.

    Crawford made avanesyan to look like an idiot. Plus he fought him in the outside and in the inside (that's suicidal for any other boxer different than Crawford).

    I'm totally in love with crawford's boxing. It's my favourite fighter by far, I cant help it, his boxing is so beautiful.

    One question has been in my mind for a while after the fight.

    Will Avanesyan be the same after this brutal KO? his boxing relies a lot on his self confidence and on being sure that taking risks to KO his oponents ir a sure bet, because his power is unreal. Well.... it was not like that vs Crawford.

    Imho a cautious and gun-shy Avanesyan is as good as crap, so I hope he will not do like that in the future. Do you think that Avanesyan has been ruined?

    Stop it. He didn’t even get out of first gear.

    I’m convinced Spence is just waiting for Bud to be like 38 or something. Give me Boots then. Or Vergil. I hate boxing man.

    Despite looking decent for a few rounds, David A. is complete trash.

    Avanesyan is probably no better than a "B" level or second tier fighter, but Crawford made him look like a glorified sparring partner as soon as shifted out of first gear.

    Avanesyan is C tier at best. It's difficult to say he's world level, and impossible to say more than that.

    I can live with that, "C tier."

    Avanesyan is nevertheless fringe world class, and Crawford dispatched him without breaking a sweat.
