lamont most impressive to me when he grinds. not as much so when he tries to move and box, but doesnt have much option here. think hell try boxing and get stopped within 8. dont know if anyone today is p4p as strong as spence.

Fact that Spence is taking like what seems like a warm up paves the way for Crawford to do the same which we'd expect from a guy moving up.

Spence is taking what he can get, if he had his way he'd fight 4 times a year.

Peterson is as good or better of an opponent as Danny Garcia. I thought he won vs DG, even though DG demanded a catchweight of 143. LP is a big skilled welterweight that will put up a good fight, possibly better than many expect.

Peterson isn’t a bad opponent at all. I don’t think he has the style to beat Spence. He’ll have to be at his toughest but realistically he’s outgunned in this one

LP is just big enough and skilled enough to hang around long enough to give ESJ a decent workout, but it will be brutal on Peterson.

The truth of the matter though is if Crawford came in at 143 2/3rd pounds he might whoop a 147 pound Errol Spence Jr

What about if Crawford comes in at 145 &2/3lbs? That could seriously change the whole dynamic of the fight, that would change his percentage to more like 42.3-43.3%. But it probably also depends if it's a spring fight (APRIL: +/- 0.5% for Spence) or a Summer fight (AUGUST: +/- 0.8% Crawford)

That being said, both are excellent fighters and do their utmost to remain honest men. They do not want to fight each other and this is to be respected as a man.

True, but I think Crawford is a better boxer than Spence is. Spence is a good big fighter but I think Crawford is a great small fighter. And Crawford isn't too small. He's usually 150-155 in the ring at 140. He'll be a comfortable 155-160 in ring at 147.

I don't who's negotiating with who, just seems like a somewhat legitimate filler in fight that's all.
