    sky is the limit. just a matter of what he wants to do. if charlo wins or loses he can fight charlo at 154 for the belts or he can fight canelo. charlo is easy work. At this point in there careers crawford is more well preserved and mentally tougher then canelo. That bivol shutout has to be in his head. Ped use catching up to him aswell.

    Spence was deathly drained. Had he not been, he would have had a much better chance.

    maybe a tad better. 154 crawford stops him. He might be able to take more punshment but thats not necessarily a good thing

    No. The performance was too good. You can't say car crash or drained because it was such an asswhooping that there's no other outcome but a Bud win even earlier in their careers.

    I've always picked Crawford to destroy Spence. Check my post history. Does that change the fact that Spence looked like he was filming The Mechanic sequel?

    I've watched it fifteen times. When you get to the 10th time, you start to realize it's not what you thought it was in the first three beatings because it takes at least that long for the emotions to stop affecting you. It was also the full broadcast each time.

    An orthodox stance fighter, fighting out of a southpaw stance, beat a southpaw fighter who most people on here thought was a monster.

    The same people who built Spence into a monster are the ones who want to take credit away from Crawford for beating him.

    I've been alive for 55 years and I've seen a lot of boxers. That was one of the best yesterday. I'd pick him against a lot of all time greats.

    People sure ask some dumb questions.
