How Spence's Can Out Box Crawford - Boxing Breakdown

Errol Spence Jr. is one of the great boxers of the modern era. One of the fighters that dominated all competition to the point where they develop an air of seeming invincibility for years and years. And that’s why it’s so incredible that he soon will be finally facing the man who can be said to hold the exact same accolades, Terrance Bud Crawford. This is one of the biggest fights boxing has seen in decades, and some time next month we will get to see one of these warriors taste defeat for the first time in their professional careers.

The Crawford breakdown will be difficult because even Crawford doesn’t know all his own tricks. They just come to him naturally when he needs them.

[@Idolikethis]

[@angelomanzi9272]

That’s 🧢… he knows what he’s doing from every single position. That whole comes naturally narrative needs to be buried already. The guy has lived and breathed boxing his entire life… of course he knows every combo, counter, and counter to counters from both stances.

I think any scenario is possible in this mega fight. That is what makes fight so intriguing. We are getting a rematch too!

[@jmartins2729]

No we won't, cause Bud will crush Spence! Mark my words..

[@Bu-Aljoory]

That was a one sided beat down i don't think there is a chance for a rematch not in the near future either and not just because of the beatdown but Spence is barely making weight and the weight cut is brutal on his body so i think he will move up a weight class.

[@6400loser]

I sincerely appreciate what you do. I'm sorry the tyranny of algorithms has shafted you, please always know that we are grateful for your work ❤ you elevate the love of fighting we have, and it's inspiring!

[@Ryuksgelus]

I disagree that there is an air of invincibility surrounding Errol. He always had vulnerabilities it's jut that he's always so dominant that nobody has really ever been able to capitalize on the slight but noticeable mistakes he makes. It's not just has inactivity and accidents that make Bud the betting favorite. Bud is absolutely the guy to make Spence pay for any minor hiccup he normally gets away with because he's so strong and tough.

[@craiganbrooks1485]

All facts.💯

[@morgangreen2601]

You can say the same for Bud though. Bud is a slow starter as he picks up on the opponents' tactics and divises a snap strategy. This opens him up to losing rounds against a improvisional and combo heavy volume striker like Errol. Now, I wont ignore Bud's great footwork, but Spence will likely be advancing out the gate putting Bud on his backfoot, and possibly frustrating Bud into a war that Spence is ready for.

[@edi.duzit23]

Hes talking about more of the overall view of the fighter. Not just our boxing junkie takes

[@karateebody]

@@morgangreen2601he’s not the slow starter everyone says he is that is something that’s been floating around as if he jus sits there with no activity downloading data. He started fast agains Khan, Porter Mean Machine and Avenysian

[@TheModernMartialArtist]

I don't think Bud is a slow starter. My point is more that he starts taking big risks right away and that gets him caught more than usual. Mayweather was actually the same way imo, he had a harder first few rounds than necessary so that the rest of the fight would be much easier.

My knitting group is evenly divided on who will win. In all seriousness, thank you for anther great video, it's insightful as always!

[@cncaliguy09]

Crawford gonna fimd the holes Spence. Spence reminds me of Duran with arm frames like Foreman. Crawford going to wait for that jab frame for counter. He is going to slip inside and catch Spence because he is used to loading his punches.

[@LeftHook336]

Exactly! That ain't sophisticated

[@TheModernMartialArtist]

Countering off a frame is a very valid tactic. It's how Dekker's beat a lot of those Muay Thai fighters and how a lot of them have been getting slept the last several months against western fighters. That's a very good point and you may be right, I'll be watching for that now. But Spence does have the skills to quickly back off and turn that same frame into a sweep or parry. The more I think about this fight the more I have no idea whose going to win haha

[@arycorvette884]

Another thing is Spence have problems fighting fighters who pressure him like Porter all of Spence technique goes out the window

The sad thing is that there are plenty of great potential matchups in boxing right now. This is probably the best of them. But the bottom line is that the promoters and governing bodies are preventing so many great fights. It's a miracle this one is finally happening. These guys should be on their 3rd fight by now. It's a travesty.

This will be a great fight . But people need to know that when two great fighters fight , it becomes a game of patience , often times can be a boring fight ti those who don’t get the mindset part of a fight . I predict that Spence will apply pressure, which will be to Crawford advantage who loves to counter punch aggressors, Spence will adjust and let the fight come to him and we will see his greatness unlock . Overall I don’t know who will win , but I can predict a win from who ever is more patient and adjust fast.

[@blazeblackk]

Spence's boxing skills are criminally underrated, and Crawford's are over inflated. Crawford has the best killer instinct in the sport, but that could be a double-edged sword against someone as technically sound and methodical as Spence.

[@sheldonhollis5258]

I think Inoue and Ennis have a better killer instinct

[@jessybenoit4488]

wtf, crawford is way more methodical than Spence. His stance switch should his arsenal of strategies. He may not use perfect techniques, but clearly, you underrated crawford IQ ring. Like Mayweather, he lures you into his punches.

[@el34glo59]

Everyone is gonna realize after this fight that Spence resume wasn't that impressive either. And are going to be shocked how Bud deals with him and ends him. Spence will load his punches and eventually bud will sneak through a bomb uppercut or overhand. If Spence tries pulling Crawfords guard down he's gonna get cracked. Also, pushing Crawford is easier said than done. Like you said. Crawford is extremely physical and strong

[@isreal2301]

I got Spence winning but I think you spot on with that uppercut and overhand. It’ll be in between shots if it happens even if it doesn’t lead to a KO or knockdown. I think he’ll hand a couple during the fight.

No one is talking about the potential size difference in this fight, when they are standing next to each other in the ring it very well could 2 or 3 weight class difference. Which is all fine and dandy if Crawford is that much better than Spence and if Spence wasn't a banger who doesn't mind getting in the trenches. But Spence loves being in the trenches, he relishes it and I don't think the skill difference is that much. I think Spence's love of battle and size win the day, the skill is too close to call.
