I'm going to check the odds on a first Rd TKO, errol looks mummified

[Roadblock]

And here we go. Built in excuses. Already saw another site showing a picture of Spence looking gaunt. Crawford is gonna stop him and it will be because "Spence can't fight at 147 anymore".

From fans, it won't come from Spence, and fans talk so much BS it's a joke, 147 has always been tough for Errol and he comes through so I expect him to be his normal self and if he gets stopped he wasn't good enough, same for bud, may the best man win and I expect the BS to fly left right and centre no matter who wins, thats just fandom.

If he is killing himself to stay at 147, he has only himself to blame. No excuses. Nobody is putting a gun on his head to fight at 147.

If you know anything about the sport, this should not come as any surprise! He's only at 147 to fight Crawford! I think Spence never comes back to 147, and Jermell Charlo never comes back to 154!

Spence should have kept that opinion to himself until after his fight on Saturday. He's been talking too much on this promotional trail. That little bit of information may have given Crawford the upper hand. We usually see Spence's opponents break down over the course of a fight. Spence may have let Crawford know that he might be depleted at 147. Knowing this information, Crawford might be able to take Spence into deep waters, wear him out, and drown him. Crawford, asked "who likes fish". He might serve up Spence, for real. Watch out for a higher than usual activity/work rate from Crawford against Spence this Saturday.

To be honest, this is one of the reasons Spence worked really hard to secure this bout with Crawford. He knew that this fight could only be made at around 147. He's been hinting that his last fight at 147 would take place this year. He will be moving to 154. Therefore, if he wins on Saturday, he could actually demand that if a rematch were to take place, it can take place at higher than 147.

Definitely!

I'm placing a bet on a draw, and one on Crawford stopping Spence now, stopped in Rd 3

Like someone already said, to much info. Gives me the impression the fight took so long to make because he doubts himself.

Crawford isn't Ugas. Ugas used his offence as defence and it worked in the Manny fight. Ugas was always to easy to hit. Spence may think his new mauling style and weight advantage will overwhelm Crawford.

This may look like Haney v. Loma for 6 to 8 rounds and finish before 12.

Just ignoring my facts lmfao who was counting belts?

Stay on topic boy

Crawford has the weakest resume in the top 10 fighters, he's a bum. A win for us sleepy faces

Is this an admission fight with Crawford should have been made long time ago?
