Yep, Crawford needs to survive Horn first. Spence/Crawford would be a great fight but i lean towards Spence.

I think Crawford will handle Horn easy enough tbh. He's a level above. The Spence fight is really interesting. Two different styles that should gel well. We've not really seen if Crawford can tough it out yet. That's testament to how good he is. He's cruised through top/dangerous fighters without breaking sweat but Spence would be a different challenge altogether.

I think Horn will make the fight as ugly and rugged as possible, using every dirty tactic possible. What he will find out though is that Crawford can really fight in addition to his slick boxing skills. Horn will get the living hell beat out of him by either Crawford or Spence. Bad enough he may go back to being a school teacher.

This has to be the best match up out there...

Bob Arum has previously admitted that wants to marinate the bout and I even posted a video of him saying this. Haymon fighters are paid really well, even against journeymen and, commercially-speaking, Crawford isn't a big name and nor has he even made his debut yet at 147lbs.

He never will be a big name until he beats a big name. Bob wants to hand him the head of someone already past their sell by date...

This fight really needs to happen in 2019 at the very least. My guess is...it won't.
