Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence Jr

[Primo Carnera]

All I could think early in the fight was Damn, what would be looking at if Crawford hadn’t wasted some of his best years not taking the biggest challenges for whatever reason.
35/36 years old and he looks incredible.

[Kirkland Laing]

As fantastic as Crawford was Spence was not at the races. Taking nothing away from Crawford though. Perfect performance.

[Spicoli]

Crazy to think his top network debut was coming in as 3 day tba replacement. Nice to see full potential realized at elite level. Hard road forward for Spence here. I’m not sure jumping to 154 solves this at all.

[Primo Carnera]

Looking back at the ending, the ref did a great job.

Crawford right hand with hooks and jabs were damaging against Spence. Crawford stopped Kell Brooks with that jab.

First time I have seen Crawford so moved by his achievement today.

This was so one sided that there should be no rematch.

[Dark Lord Al]

I said Crawford tko 11 was quicker than I thought, Terrence is a great fighter , spence is a good good fighter.
Crawford like many greats when on the inside he is so relaxed with his own skills to not get hit.

[imp]

Crawford was 40%.

He wasn’t even sweating.

He can still fight for 2 more years.

[Ron Swanson]

All the more reason to hate Canelo, because Bud vs Charlo for all the belts at 154 would make so much sense. And Canelo vs Mell makes no sense at all

[mikeeod]

Damn. That was impressive. I NEVER thought it would be so one sided, that Bud would win the battle of the jabs, that Bud would be more effective to the body, and/or that this fight would end by stoppage. Best performance against a top fighter in decades. That was a brilliant/flawless performance by Bud. I thought Spence would be a little too big, so the other thing I NEVER expected to see what Bud manhandle him like that. Bud is a special fighter.

[THE THIRD MAN]

One of the most impressive displays i have ever seen in a major fight between two champions. Crawford was totally dominant, i'm not sure what Spence could do that would alter the result a second time. Well done Terence Crawford, that was a super effort.

[Yuzo]

man that guy can fight.

[Mark TKO]

Just watched it. Wasn't expecting such a comprehensive win either way.

Fair play to spence he went for it but Crawford was a class apart.

[Beanz]

Timing is everything. Especially in boxing. It dictates not just when, but how much power you have when you do the work of throwing punches and how much power you can take away from your opponent by leaving him no time or space to work in. Crawford dictated last night's fight with the kind of timing that makes very, very good fighters like Spence look ordinary.
I have to admit, I was a little bit sceptical of just how good Terence Crawford was, but last night's contest erased those doubts. Of course, it would be foolish to judge a fighter on one fight, but when you make a fellow P4P fighter look like a novice for long periods in a contest with this much at stake, it is hard to deny the quality of Crawford.

Spence can still have some great contests but you have to admit that even if he triggers the rematch clause there is very little he can do to disrupt the timing of a man who established such a hurtful and efficient metronome in not only beating Spence to the punch, but setting him up with combinations and traps that left Spence no time to adjust his own tempo or the angle of his own feints and punches.

Who didn't see that coming? I thought Spence's corner was going to stop the fight but the ref did his job last night. Kudos to both men on a great and memorable fight...

What else can Crawford do now? he's beaten everyone except Thurman. But do we really want to or NEED to see Crawford v Thurman?

[Master]

Forget Thurman he was finished years ago.

Crawford jump up to face Charlo/Tszyu, or against a young undefeated prospect like Ennis would be a challenge.
