    Errol Spence?

        I’m happy he (GGG) is still fighting on this date. With the few years we have left of watching/enjoying this very talented fighters career; I will not miss any of his bouts.

        Shout out to Vanes for stepping up on short notice, he shouldn’t be taken lightly.

          AAhhh I don't know about that one. Spence is the naturally bigger fighter with just as much or more speed and quickness than Crawford. I am not sold on Crawfords defense either Molina Jr. and Postol had his head snapping back I can only imagine if that were Spence in there with him. Crawford needs to take the fight now as he is 30 and a natural mover. Those type of boxers tend to decline quickly after 30...It will be an exciting fight but I don't see Crawford having enough speed , power , or quickness to get Spence off of him...

            Two years inactive and moving up from 154 to 160?

            I won't miss it either because it's not a PPV fight.

              Please. This is a sh*t fight. Vanes is washed up, inactive and never has fought at 160. GGG will destroy him within six rounds.

                I'm not as confident as you about that. I'd love to see them fight but that's a ways down the road.

                  Crawford's secret weapon: He is ambidextrous. Perhaps the best two-handed fighter in the world. He can switch at a moment's notice, with equal speed and power with either hand.

                  Plus he has an incredible mean streak. He hurts guys because he seems to like it.

                  Spence is excellent, but I don't think he can handle that.

                          One of the three best fights that can be made in boxing, along with GGG-Canelo and Joshua-Wilder. Bring it!

                            I agree but nobody would watch Crawford-Broner
                            Spoiler
                            or Crawford-Thurman?

                              Crawford beats Thurman. Full stop. Thurman is the epitome of an overprotected, underactive Haymon fighter.

                              Thurman is very solid. But I see nothing in his skills that make him exceptional. The only thing he has going for him against Crawford is that he's a true welterweight. That's it.

                                I hear ya but it's tough to be ambidextrous when you got some incoming speed and power shots..He can get away with that now but Spence is too much of a technician and aggressive fighter to let him get comfortable. That mean streak goes both ways trust me...Spence gets after you. and if you don't have a mean streak in you and want to hurt people your in the wrong sport..Like I said I don't like Crawfords defense enough for him to keep Spence off of him..
