He's overrated fury as much as I love fury thats the truth. The problem is people think to beat fury you need size. That is undoubtedly the wrong approach. Speed footwork IQ beats fury. Usyk beats fury and that why fury is running from him. Fans are using the same language they used for spence vs crawford when defending fury. Usyk will outclass him. Fury knows it and that's why he's running. He makes outrageous demands and usyk agrees to them and then fury still turns the fight down. 😂

Generational fantasy matchups are pointless because the fact is that Terence Crawford would not be the same fighter he is today without Floyd Mayweather Jr. to study from, just like Floyd Mayweather Jr. would not be the same fighter he was without being able to study the fighters that came before him like Pernell Whitaker, James Toney, Sugar Ray Leonard etc.

While all true, the argument is could the student be better than the master? Of course there's the advantage that Bud had Floyd to learn from... but hypothetically who would win if they both fought in their primes? There can never be a factual answer but my money would be on Floyd via decision. As quick as Crawford is, prime Floyd was quicker. Also Floyd was smarter imo with better defence, and had enough power to get the attention of his opponent, while having a solid chin himself

People are so obsessed with power and some people would favor Crawford over Floyd because of that. Floyd beat Canelo with IQ alone and he couldn't just walk through his punches. The boxer with the highest IQ wins and that's Floyd. Believe it or not power is not what beat Spence, Danny is probably the biggest puncher at welterweight. Brook and Porter said Spence hits harder than Crawford but guess who won, Crawford. Why? Superior IQ #peace.

Crawford is already an all time great. It is extremely difficult to go from 135 to 147 and remain undefeated in 40 fights while becoming a 9-time world champion (1 lightweight belt, 4 light welterweight belts, and 4 welterweight belts). fury's magic gloves versus Wilder, in sparring (Nicholas Asberry), versus Christian Hammer, and his multiple failed drug tests (vs Klitschko) is his legacy.

Spence is a pressure fighter without head and lateral movement. Crawford never had to think but simply react and counter. With that being said, Spence clearly isn't the same fighter @147, I felt the weight cuts been hurting him more and more each fight. To me he looked weak during the Porter fight. Now I've always said Crawford's gifts would be the difference, and it would be a better match at 154 for Spence. You can't get in the ring with a guy like Crawford, and not be at full strength or 100%! I actually had Crawford stopping him in round 6 or 7, and I'm a Spence guy. I told my homeboy when it was announced that he can't beat Crawford at 147. Just as I think Tank and Shakur beat Haney at 135, you must be at 100% to F with guys like that.

Jim Lampley was spot on. Now that Crawford was so impressive and destroyed Spence. How does he fight moving forward? Does he think he can do this to anybody and simply try to be this same person in every fight? Or does he try to focus on staying undefeated and riding this wave and taking less risks? Does he get in with someone who is just as dynamic as him and not look great? We've seen it all before. A fighter looks AWESOME one fight and ordinary the next. Styles make fights and different fighters fight differently on different nights under different circumstances. Mayweather found a way to keep winning consistently. We'll know more about Crawford's long-term after Spence.

Now Floyd could once again make me eat crow he did it several times during his career. I didn't necessarily pick him to lose in a lot of those fights but i kept thinking this one could be it I didn't have confidence he would pull it off every time yet he made it look easy in a lot of those fights so who knows we'll never know but it's fun to speculate.

Man, Lampley used to be on some bullsh*t back in the day but this is proof he knew when he was just being a company man because he knows boxing. And I totally agree with is "Crawford Question": will Crawford make the mistake and think he beat Spence so easily because of his "greatness"; or he best Spence so easily because of Spence's flaws? The latter is the truth. Crawford is that good, but Spence was never that good, and that can create a false sense of ability as was the case with Spence.
