Spence vs Crawford will be an exciting fight to boxing fans, but not convinced casuals will be so into it. If that fight happens in 2022 maybe not enough time to promote it.I’ll watch and hope that GGG puts Canelo to sleep.
The Spence/Crawford fight would be Epic. Hopefully it comes to fruition.
Boxing mega-fight: Errol Spence Jr. vs. Terence Crawford in November, possibly
At last, a match to look forward to that’s not a celebrity gimmick
You make good points. I don’t know all of the current boxers but in my mind these are the top two pound for pound guys in boxing. I wouldn’t ever expect Crawford to be an underdog but I think he would be against Spence. I don’t think there’s a fight I would pay to see more than this one.
I’ve been a GGG fan for awhile. He reminded me of Arturo Gatti except Golovkin is a better boxer and bigger puncher but they both have great chins. They both give their all every fight. GGG would have destroyed Canelo in his prime but unfortunately we never got to see that. Maybe GGG can turn back the hands of time for a couple rounds and knockout Canelo. I’ll be watching and hoping.
That is THE fight in boxing. That is an absolute buy from me. Crawford stops Spence late. Too dynamic. More tools in the box.I’ll watch and hope that GGG puts Canelo to sleep.

I think you are correct about Crawford being the more skilled fighter/boxer but I think Spence has the power advantage. Crawford has tremendous defense and Spence would be facing the best fighter of his career but I think Spence has a chance to score the knockout. I would not be surprised if either fighter was stopped but it would be a war and the advantage does go to Crawford because he has more experience and a more complete skill set.
They’re both SO good. Them and Inoue top 3 p4p in my opinion
Possibly after they fight each other but I've got Fury #1.
I highly doubt you would find Fury on any boxing analyst’s top 5 list. Pound for pound usually reserved for super middleweights and under. Fury just big, stupid, strong, and can take a punch. I would not ever refer to Fury as highly skilled.
Fury needs to stop avoiding Usyk if he is indeed coming out of “retirement”. Dillian Whyte should’ve never got that last fight either.
Fury needs to stop playing games and get in against Usyk. That is the only fight that matters at HW. The new generation is poised to take over and Fury needs to leave no doubt who is the best of his generation.
I respectfully think you are out of your mind. I used to say the same about Fury. I used to call him sideshow bob but then i started really watching him and for a guy his size he is pretty light on his feet and can flat out box. I have absolutely no doubt on his best night he gives any heavyweight ever serious problems. HIs biggest issue is he likes to fight and will get stationary and slug which is what got him dropped against Wilder.
a HW who didn't move up in weight(ala Usyk) at pfp #1 is nuts. Fury's resume isn't even all that good to be up there anyway.
What's the Fury dodging talk? He told Usyk to tape em up in mid December and Usyk doesn't want to fight then. Fury doesn't want to wait around so for now he's moved on to a December fight with AJ while Usyk heals and spends time with his family. Really hope it happens in March or whenever Usyk is ready because I think Fury would dismantle him.
He's a giant, there's no weight for him to move up to. Penalizing him for that is silly and part of the reason I never take P4P lists all that seriously.
