I'm picking Crawford to beat Spence via late stoppage tonight.

Wow, I don’t think anyone thought it would be as conclusive as that. Spence won the first round then it was all Crawford. Crawford is clearly at his peak yet I think Spence has had his. Without Spence having his car accident and if they had fought a couple of years earlier then I think it’s a lot closer.

I'm not sure if it would have been quite as conclusive years ago, but I am pretty certain Crawford would have still won handily.

Crawford had an answer for all of Spence's weapons. He successfully jabbed with him, blocked and countered his body attack, and evaded when Spence tried his push and punch technique on the inside.

For now, I have Crawford at number 1 P4P. His win last night trumps Inoue superb win over Fulton, and Usyk hasn't boxed in almost a year. Given those are my three favourite current boxer I am spoilt at the moment.

Predictions for the 3 heavyweight fights coming up in the next few months.

AJ v Whyte - AJ TKO R9 ( I hope Whyte wins though)
Usyk v Dubois - Usyk TKO R10
Fury v Ngannou - Fury whenever he pleases. I will say round 8

Double stretcher job in the aj fight hopefully.

Usyk mid to late stoppage.

Fury wins in a stinker, probably by stoppage.

Boxing can still be great.

Crawford and Inoue's performances last week were outstanding. Crawford's performance in particular was the best we've seen in many years.

Crawford has been incredible for years. Problem is unless you’re a boxing fan you wouldn’t have even known him v Spence was happening. Something has been missing in boxing for a good while now and it’s pretty sad. I can’t remember the last fight I looked forward to. Maybe Usyk v AJ the first time

Come on Senna, give me your predictions for the fights I posted. I’ll guess they won’t be dissimilar to mine.
