    How will Crawford deal with someone who’s faster than him and has a good ass chin?

    Ennis is another fighter who I think people are overrating. Yeah he's quick and got some power but again he's one of those speedster types, relies on his speed to beat opponents to the punch and does not counter unlike Crawford. Crawford will happily let Ennis lead, time him and then land nasty counters and Ennis won't have a plan B when he finds he can't just do what he normally does.

    As good as Boots looks, he hasn't beaten a single name to qualify him.

    Boots is arguably the most talented US fighter now. But I think he should fight Stanionis and Thurman first, then Crawford

    Thing is Crawford doesn't have elite defense, Ennis will touch him up.

    I watched highlights of Ennis's win over Villa again, and i was quite alarmed how much Ennis got hit which i didn't notice when i watched it the first time.

    I'm a fan of both Crawford and Ennis but i think Crawford is a notch above Ennis atm.

    Wasn't this the whole reason 40% picked Spence in the first place? Who sneaked plenty of big shots in and Bud took'em well.

    Why create these boogeyman narratives and set yourself up for failure? First it's Fulton's gonna box circles around Inoue possibly stopping him late and Spence too big too strong and will cut thru Bud, and now that those narratives collapsed ("they were too drained") they are ducking Gervonta and Boots?

    Ellerbe won't be satisfied until he see all his favorite fighter sparked out by Crawford.

    He may not fight him but he's not going to duck him. Ducking implies not fighting someone because you think you're going to lose. I can't imagine Crawford thinking he's going to lose or even might lose to someone.

    If Spence and Crawford have the rematch at 154, which I believe is the likely scenario, and Bud wins, I can see him staying there and challenging Charlo or Tszyu or whomever has the straps at that time. Even Vergil Ortiz Jr, might be a possibility.
