Crawford - Spence 7/29 Done

[JD]

Some story about him playing dice when he was 21. The shooter was trying to shoot someone else but the bullet went through his cars rear window.

You never know. If Bud really takes care of himself and continues to respect and hone his craft, we may see a few more good years out of him. Its definitely possible IF he does the right things.

Time will tell.

He put on a masterful performance.

Spence has maybe 2-3 more fights in him (inc the rematch) before I suspect he hangs them up. Anything after that would be a money grab by either himself or his handlers. He'll lose the rematch, and be even worse for wear, and then what? Go tooth and nail with someone that has no right going tooth and nail with him?

He is a lot like Hopkins in that he really doesn't waste any extra energy in the ring. He is very compact and calculated. Fighters like that usually tend to last longer.

Bud is special fighter. If he stays on track over the next few years he can have a very special career. There's some scalps he can add that would just sweeten his story that much more.
