    He stops Ennis earlier than Spence. Charlo may be too big for him. He could stop Tszyu too.

    What Crawford did when he came to Scotland to take Burns title was the first place to look if any in depth research needed on his pedigree , and look at how he always turns up. Perhaps he wasn't easy to promote, and/or identified as too risky/low reward and to be avoided.

    TERMINATED

    Al Haymon knew Spence's run was over as soon as the fight was signed. That's why he did everything in his power to not make it happen. But the time finally came to sacrifice his warrior. PBC almost succeeded in ageing out and black balling one of the great talents in boxing.

    Every time a PBC fighter steps up and fights a top guy that's not in-house ? They get stomped. Wilder/Fury, Fulton/Inoue, Plant/Canelo, Porter/Crawford and now Spence vs Crawford.

    Boxing fans will be waiting a long time if they think Tank will fight Shakur/Haney/Teo or Loma anytime soon

    Enjoy Tank vs Pibtull Cruz II and then Tank vs Rolly II or even Tank vs Chris Colbert.

    Errol should get checked out, rest a bunch. In his post fight interview he was giving me end of career Jermaine Taylor vibes. He always comes across like he's stoned out of his mind but the whites of his eyes were yellow/gray. He looked sick.

    An independent and thorough neurological evaluation should be a prerequisite. If Spence fails it, he should lose his license.

    If he does wanna fight on, then spend the next year quiet with his gym sessions closed to the public with the door shut, working a lot on head movement, and not being so heavy on his feet and legs, shorten his stance a little bit, tighten up his defensive skills. But even if he does all this, he still may not be able to beat Bud in the future. And I think this would've happened pre Errol's car accident and Bud’s in the big fish frying business.

    The only thing Errol had going for him was his volume, which came from lacking any real pop in his punches. Basically a heavyweight Joe Joyce. He's TOO front foot heavy, which puts him in harm's for a brutal KO far more than the average fighter. That's why Bud's hand speed and countering were a problem

    As for Crawford ? if Bud wasn't boxing I think he would have been a serial killer. That man has one emotionless face.

    He rarely ever lets a chance go by to punish his opponent. Most fighters have controversial wins, Bud doesn't

    And just to be clear on Bud's performance

    Errol Spence was an undefeated world champ who held 3 out of the 4 main belts. He has never been knocked down or even cut. But by the end he looked like he'd been bummed by a grizzly bear.

    I reckon Byrd and CJ Ross had it even at the time of the stoppage.



    I just want to add it's hard to not like Bud Crawford. The Mayweather and Broner flash have their place, but Bud's a guy who doesn't talk about the women's he's fked. All his six kids are to one women and his wife isnt some super hot insta thot. Just his childhood sweet Alindra Pearson.




    He does not talk about the cars he drives, the money he has, the mansion he lives in, doesn't live the wild high life, does not crave attention and the mic like an Eddie Hearn or Don King or Tyson Fury. Just a down to earth humble guy who has not let the fame go to his head

    I can't remember an elite level unification/undefeated fighter matchup that turned out so one sided since Don Curry blitzed Milton McCrory.

    Spence is (or was?) a genuinely world class fighter with a great and proven pedigree. After the first round, he just couldn't do anything at all to trouble Crawford. he tried a few things and was just getting dissected each and every time. Spence wins fight via his jab and pressure and Bud just took them away from him effortlessly.

    props and respect to both guys for taking the matchup, for not doing any stupid Fury style antics beforehand, for fighting clean (especially Spence who must have been running out of ideas early on) .... and for both being so respectful about each other afterwards. Classy from both guys.

    but when you are boxing with a southpaw and you both jab at the same time your jabs will become obstructed and essentially cancel out.



    thats why when a southpaw jabs he can keep you from throwing your jab just by throwing his jab.



    when a southpaw jabs his jab will cancel out your jab. when errol spence throws his jab he is basically trying to keep you pinned down. then when you are being pinned down by the jab thats when he can start hitting you with the bulk of his punches. the jab is his lynchpin. take away his jab and you will take away everything with it.

    i always guessed that the punch that beats spence is the counter right hand to the body when he picks up his right elbow to throw his jab.



    when he picks up his right elbow and steps in to jab, which he does a whole lot, you use his momentum and meet him with the counter right hand to the body, specifically to the liver. why guys don't do that, well, thats anybody's guess. but thats always the punch you throw when you are boxing with a southpaw who is stepping in with his jab.

    now when a southpaw is boxing with a southpaw he may not want to jab so much, because instead of his jab pinning you down and laying a suppressive blanket on top of you to keep you from punching back, his jab just opens him up to a completely new set of counter punches. he doesn't just get to do southpaw stuff; now he really has to box.
    You might have been onto something here.

    That was probably the most impressive beatdown I've ever seen. Crawford did pretty much exactly what he wanted when he wanted. It was a masterclass. Spence was brave and gave everything he could, but he was hopelessly out of his depth. He got mauled. Spence was worrying me before a bell was rung. He just looks fucked up the whole time. When they were in the ring, the commentary team asked who looks the most relaxed. Spence looked like he'd just woken up on a park bench. A weird smirk on his face like he'd woken up to a surprise half full bottle of liquor. He had a strange demeanor the whole fight. I guess having the ever loving shit beat out of you will do that. He just looks all sorts of wrong to me.

    Before the fight in the dressing room Spence was the same being interviewed. He was "spaced" out.

    Just to be clear, we do know that this would have been the same result even before the Spence car accident, right? Crawford is just the better fighter, as was Fury over Wilder.

    Terence Crawford's magnificent victory over Errol Spence has proved to be a financial success.

    The long-awaited super fight delivered in the ring with Crawford producing a brilliant performance.

    And it appears to have also delivered from a business perspective.

    According to American journalist Dan Rafael, the fight did at least 650,000 USA PPV buys.

    Priced at $85 on Showtime, this means it generated upwards of $55million in revenue from PPV money alone.

    It's also been reported that the gate revenue (money from ticket sales) for the fight in Las Vegas surpassed $21million.

    When all is said and done, Spence and Crawford will reportedly each earn purses upwards of $25million.

    Boxing supporters reacted positively to this news, indicating the success of an event which showcased the best fighting the best.

    I hate this line of commentary from Spence fans because he got his ass handed to him. Spence lost, fair and square... This is just embarrassing now.
