“The fight between Crawford and Spence is the best fight of the last 10 years in the welterweight division” – Besputin

Meeting between Americans Terence Crawford And Errol Spence is the loudest welterweight in at least ten years and tops the duel between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. The former regular WBA welterweight champion shared this opinion with Alexandre Besputin .

The fight for the undisputed world welterweight title will take place in Las Vegas on July 29. Mayweather defeated Pacquiao in May 2015 and added to the WBA, WBC welterweight titles and WBO belt.

Crawford vs Spence is a big fight. I read Spence’s comments that there hadn’t been a fight like this for almost 40 years. But here he slightly overestimates the importance of their meeting. But I admit that in the last ten years in this weight, this is the best fight. And he may top the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. Manny is in decline, while Spence and Crawford are at their peak with zeros on their losing charts.

To be honest, it’s hard for me to predict this fight. I really do not know. Each of them is very good in its own way. Spence is more physically powerful and Crawford is more maneuverable and tactically proficient in fights. It will be very interesting for me to follow this confrontation,” Besputin told .

Crawford is 35 and holds the WBO middleweight belt. Terence has 39 wins (30 – KO) and remains undefeated in the professional ring. In his last fight, he beat Russian David Avanesyan earlier than expected in December 2022. Crawford also became the undisputed welterweight champion.

Spence, 33, owns the IBF, WBA, WBC belts and has won all of his 28 official fights (22 by knockout). In the last fight, he beat Cuban Yordenis Ugas earlier than expected in April last year.
