    The one issue I have is that Crawford actually got tagged quite a bit in the early rounds.
    Imagine if that was Spence landing those same shots....

    I didn’t see him get caught a lot uno, his face looked completely fresh, no bruising or anything. Jeff caught with a few right hands when he would jump in but once crawford starting timing him that stopped.

    He does always seem to get tagged early, he seems to be a slow starter but once he finds his rhythm he looks a different fighter. Spence will likely win the early rounds if they ever fight, but winning the first 2-3 rounds doesn't win you the fight.

    An issue I have with Crawford is he's vulnerable when in the southpaw stance because he's open to the right hand. He gets tagged by right hands a lot because his head movement as a southpaw is predictable. But luckily against a southpaw like Spence that won't be an issue.

    I was impressed with Crawford's physical strength in this fight.

    Horn looked a bit thicker around the shoulders, arms & neck but Crawford was wiry strong.

    referee made the difference, in pacs fight, ref allowed horn do his dirty tricks, while this time ref did not allow horn do his dirty trick,BTW horn's Face were more damaged in pac's fight

    No he didn’t, Crawford skill and strength made the difference, he didn’t allow Horn to just tie him up, he kept catching Horn when he rushed in. It doesn’t matter if i5 was more damaged against pac, he beat him. I would rather be in a hard fight which I win than a less punishing fight which I lose. Anyone who thinks Pac should of won, why didn’t he use his rematch clause to avenge that loss? I’ll tell you why it’s coz he didn’t wanna get back in there with that style.

    Everyone seen it, horn can't do his dirty tactics in America, headlock, elbowing headbutting like he did with Pac in Australia, I think refs stoppage is too early, pac feels he's being set up to loose in Australia fight

    Pac is gunna feel like that, the truth is Horn was stronger and tougher than anyone expected or gave him credit for. When the first announced the fight I thought it was a cherry pick, I thought pac would actually get his first KO in years. However horn proved me wrong.
