    Arum says he has inside info that Spence will not be fighting anytime in near future (2020 and possibly 2021). So he is talking about matching Crawford up with Porter.

    Crawford could legit beat alvarez in a boring fight, but most likely he'd lose a decision

    And ESPN wouldnt be cool with dazn televising it

    Exactly right.
    For the same reason that Roberto Duran would have beaten the hell out of Carlos Zarate

    That's a bad comparison.

    Duran was both a bigger man than Zarate AND a better fighter.

    Canelo is not better than Crawford... only bigger.

    This is my first time watching Mick Conlan.

    He's garbage.

    Stevenson would shut him out.

    Joe Tessitore keeps referring to Conlan as "Irish Mick."

    I know Cdogg is watching saying "This ginzo thinks he's slick, huh?"

    I hope that alchy Spence is watching this kicking himself in the head for blowing what likely would have been a win for him.

    Bud is hurtable.

    Yeah Spence would have beaten Crawford. I have no doubt now. Shame we may not get that fight at all.

    Crawford had scary moments but did what he had to do.

    Was this fight on at the same time as the UFC fight? Because it was over here in Japan.

    Seems that everybody struggles in turn.

    Loma didn't shine against Campbell, Spence had his hands full with Porter, Inoue took bruises against Donaire, Crawford lost some early rounds, Prograis lost.

    Do we assume that nobody is good, or should we concentrate more on the level of the opposition and the end results?

    I didn't see much trouble with Crawford's performance tbh. He got hurt a bit, he came back and turned it around. That's boxing. His problem is the very lacking welterweight resume, which is why I wouldn't rank him to the top 5 of p4p lists

    Nothing wrong with struggling or even losing. Problem with Crawford is that he only faces bums, and that his whole p4p claim is about looking good dispatching these bums

    Seriously, a prime Spence would have wiped his arse with Crawford.

    Canelo at 160? Forgedaboudit. He'd straight up rape Crawford and stop him with ease.

    Canelo is a better p4p fighter than bud imo. At 160 its a total mismatch

    The Crawford hate on here is strong. He'd spank Crapnelo if they were the same size. Canelo hasn't fought a good southpaw since Lara... I don't think it's a coincidence.

    But obviously, at 160 Canelo would stop him. He'd have over 20 pounds on Crawford.

    The reaction to the Crawford fight is why as boxing fans we get what we deserve. It's two sides of the same coin. If Crawford had won easily, people would be on here over-rating him. As it is, they're acting like he sucks because he got knocked down.
