Looking at their odds, even betting for the bookies favorite, Terence Crawford, is still promising and profitable for me because his odds to win at least for the money line is still above 2.00 while for Errol Spence is a little bit over 3.00 . But the trouble is, even though Crawford have some upper hand in this fight, we cannot really underestimate Errol Spence because even if we don't like him that much or at least for me because of what he did recently, he is still undeniably good when it comes to boxing.

Are you sure? If the money line odds for Terence Crawford is above 2.00 while Errol Spence's is over 3.00, then the betting platform will go bankrupt. Nobody will lose if those are the betting odds. If I were a bettor, I would be betting on the two fighters with all my savings knowing that whoever wins, I will make a profit.

You might want to double check your numbers. Last I checked Crawford is the favorite with 1.74 money line odds.
I believe that was just a typo error, hehe. It's quite evident that Crawford is the favored fighter, although only by a small margin. In my opinion, this fight is actually a 50/50 matchup. However, considering Crawford's more impressive victories compared to Spence, it's understandable why he is listed as the favorite. Regardless, the specifics of favoritism don't matter at the moment. Once this fight takes place, both fighters will undoubtedly have their own supporters cheering them on, which will make the bout thrilling to watch.

Yeah, maybe it was just a typo error, however, we know that Crawford will be the slight favorite in this fight and I doubt that there will be a a swing in favor of Porter in the last minute. And it just shows what Crawford skills though, this is the best 147 lbs and we have been saying that and we wanted to see this 2 fighters getting into the ring to decide which one is the best. And this could be the biggest fight for this year, I know that there are already big fights like the Haney vs Loma or Garcia vs Davis. But for me, as 147 lbs is the biggest weight class of all boxing, then we might as well see a most likely candidate for fight of the year and the numbers here could exceed the fight of Ryan Garcia vs Tank Davis in terms of PPV and live gates and all the money for networks and their promotional manager.

In any case, I reckon the sportsbooks might be making a mistake on these new odds. Spence is physically stronger and his skills appear to be very much equal with Crawford, I reckon. Similar to Haney vs. Loma, I change my pick again. I am on team Spence!

I don't think that the sports bookies made a mistake in putting Crawford as their favorite, this punters know how to put and who is going to be the favorite as they look on several factors. And even before the announcement of the fight itself, I think majority thinks that Crawford will be the favorite going into this fight and that's what happen right now.

There are some instances that the bookies made some mistake on their odds because sometimes they failed to have a real pulse on what the people is thinking and the real score between a fight or game, but that's just rare to happen. And a big fight like this? There is exactly no way that these sports bookies will mess up their odds, other than that, the odds presented and published are exactly the ones as well that has been shown in most casinos in Las Vegas, NV.

Yeah, it's rare but it do happens and that's what we call upset and that is why we love to bet on the underdogs too, just like in the Teo Lopez vs Josh Taylor fight wherein Lopez really schooled Josh Taylor the champion and the former unified belt holder at 140 lbs.

And in this case, Spence is the underdog, but who knows, specially for his fight he might be a good bet. Although the difference in the odds is not that big, so still close for some and there are others who think this is still a 50:50 fight.

That's why this fight is really hard to predict, although Terence Crawford is the favorite on crypto based bookies. And I do agree that even the ML is still very good, specially if you are that kind of gamblers that support your boxer and then throw big money on that line. And same with Spence backers too, line are definitely attractive. At least though this is going to be a win win for us fans as we have been waiting for this fight to happen for a long time. And again, we will have to support and back our fighter here, regardless of what the odd is as we will never know the outcome of this fight.

I think what Spence said before is that he is willing to go up in weight at 154 lbs and then fight Charlo. Although there's too much complication on it, they have the same trainer and could have some sparring between themselves.

But for fans, let's say we should be more concern of this fight first, this is huge and for the undisputed belt.

I saw boxer deviating from his current opponent suffers a defeat.  Those who are thinking of his next opponent while he is scheduled to fight another opponent often messed up his fight.  So Spence Jr. must put all his focus on beating Crawford if he don't want to end up kissing the canvas.

It might be possible if we're talking about superwelter weight because I agree that the mentioned division is really achievable by Errol Spence Jr. but towards Canelo Alvarez's division? I think that it will be too much for now considering both boxers situation and might be hard to make it possible even if Canelo will meet Spence in the middle, although when it comes to money, they might able to do that though. Who knows.

As what the article suggest, Spence eyeing a mega fight if he can defeat and get past Crawford.

Although it is still not that sure that it will indeed happen, I just cannot weigh it in and believe the fact that Spence is thinking about Canelo Alvarez instead of having his 100 percent focus on his upcoming fight next month because he surely knows that gravity about it as Crawford is not that kind of boxer who can be underestimated and even though he's much older, he can still give a punch that Spence could not possibly forget.

That's too early to speculate though, the focus but both fighters right now is to train hard and beat each other. Crawford is the favorite and so it will make Spence to be motivated. I saw some short reels of Spence, not sure though if this is new or old, but it seems that his hair has grown already. So I assume that he must be in deep trainer already.

Spence must be focused on his training.  Terrence Crawford is a big challenge for him, in fact many believe that Crawford had a sligh advantage, that includes me since I saw the precise punches of Crawford which is a threat to Spense.

I think what Spence said before is that he is willing to go up in weight at 154 lbs and then fight Charlo. Although there's too much complication on it, they have the same trainer and could have some sparring between themselves.

Errol Spence Eyeing Mega Fight If He Can Get Past Crawford

“We’re not thinking about Canelo right now, but if the fight comes on the table, I’d definitely take that fight.”

“165-168 is more my natural weight and it would be a lot easier for me to make, so I’d definitely take that fight.”
https://boxing-social.com/news/errol-spence-eyeing-mega-fight/

I mean, really? After all the wasted months of going back and forth with Terence Crawford because he's afraid and tried to buy some time even if he doesn't really admit it, people already know the real score. And now he still have the face the brag about taking Canelo Alvarez. Hands down to this man!

What do you think folks?

That seems to be new if Spence was already growing his hair because that just mean that he is too busy right now to even do some stuffs on the sidelines including a full clean haircut. That is a good news though because I don't want him to think about Canelo for now because he still got a huge fight to face next month and many avid boxing fans have already said that in this fight, Crawford got the upper hand but some also thinks that Spence have it. So, we'll see about that soon enough.

Moneyline:
Crawford - 1.83       Spence - 2.34

Does anyone remember the old odds before the sportsbooks have taken them down? I remember it was close, however, Terence Crawford was the underdog. I also remember that much of the people were on Errol Spence except for maybe @Boafeng and 1 or 2 other people. I too was also on Crawford.

I think it's about the same odds as before, maybe just a slight +/- on the side of Crawford.

^^Good analysis, but still though, Spence should defend himself as his public image was affected by the negotiations earlier and everyone thinks he is the reason stalling this fight. Nevertheless, the fight is going to happen now, and nothing has change, from the said date of June, Crawford is already the favorite and now that this is finalized, bookies remain as it is.

And maybe Spence might be quiet as his training is already in full swing now. Most likely, they might have been reviewing the tapes and this coach/trainer fighting some loopholes. And the same with Crawford, although as we have said, he is going to the public more often and having interviews.

Beating Crawford will be the best defense for Spence as he was publicly trialed and found guilty as the one who doesn't want to fight Crawford in the beginning. But since he has signed already, then this is his chance.

And if I'm not mistaken, he is not keen on going to the public and make interviews as he has said in the past that he is shy or that is simply he just want to be private. Even after his accident, his mouth is still shut and doesn't want to talk about that in public.

This is what makes things more interesting and exciting because even us here in the forum are divided very well, I guess the majority (assuming) are going with Crawford and some are into Spence Jr. as well. While it's true that their power appears to be equal but I certainly don't agree with Spence being the stronger, physically. I mean, what would be the basis of that? I think it's already fair to agree that their prowess are close which leaves most fans unable to choose what camp should they go into.
Yeah, just take a look with the voting result, it's already clear majority of users think Crawford is better than Spence.



You're correct too, there's no way to say Spence is stronger than Crawford, just take a look from their both history, Crawford was winning easily by KO in his recent 8 fought while Spence was struggling when he fought a good boxer e.g. Shawn Porter.

Spence only win from the total belts he currently have, but people are think Crawford will win. This situation quite similar where people think Tank is better than Haney.

Right and I think it's an easy route for Spence too as he was given a chance to get the WBA belt from Ugas. While Spence is fighting undefeated fighters like Jose Benavidez Jr. and Egidijus Kavaliauskas.

Nevertheless, it's style that makes the fight. So really hard to compare both of their wins against Porter or even Kell Brook for that matter.

What's important is now we will finally see who is really the best of this division, Crawford just a slight favorite because of his shiftiness, he can just switch stance for orthodox to south paw very quick.

It is understandable why people are rooting for Errol Spence Jr. and that is because he simply got 3 belts compared to Crawford who only got 1. But for us here who follows their story and watched almost all of their fights, we can somehow say that we pretty much know the real score between these two and it is already evident enough to see because the bookies are listing Crawford as a favorite.
There is just no way that the bookies will make a dumb assessment and to have a mistake on their published odds especially in this kind of big fight that has been waited by many.

And I think every sport bookies rely on the Las Vegas odds maker, so that there will be a uniform odds across everyone here. Yes, it seems though that even if Spence Jr has 3 belts, it didn't hold any weight for the odds maker, still they think that the kind of welterweight is Bud Crawford that's why he is the favorite. And I will agree with them putting him at a slight favorite and it will really give Spence a motivation here to show that they are wrong. I've seen though that Crawford is more on the media now, having interviews with different host in podcast, so the marketing for this fight has started. Yet to see Spence though, but we can see images of him in the gym already.

I'm not surprised that Spence is staying out in the limelight for now after all the controversial issues he's been into and it is just reasonable in his part to keep some safe distance because having some interviews and showing his face in the public will literally not make his image good nor will have any benefit in his part or to his camp.

It's Crawford's time now because he got the public's attention after being a victim for a sudden canceled deal after all the months he wasted in which point he became inactive for more than a year already because of that. Thus, making some appearance is also their way to market their fight.

Nevertheless, it's style that makes the fight. So really hard to compare both of their wins against Porter or even Kell Brook for that matter.

What's important is now we will finally see who is really the best of this division, Crawford just a slight favorite because of his shiftiness, he can just switch stance for orthodox to south paw very quick.

It is understandable why people are rooting for Errol Spence Jr. and that is because he simply got 3 belts compared to Crawford who only got 1. But for us here who follows their story and watched almost all of their fights, we can somehow say that we pretty much know the real score between these two and it is already evident enough to see because the bookies are listing Crawford as a favorite.
There is just no way that the bookies will make a dumb assessment and to have a mistake on their published odds especially in this kind of big fight that has been waited by many.

the problem with betting on this type of fight in which both fighters are specialists in knockouts and that both fighters have equal chances of winning, and betting on who will win the fight becomes the same as counting on luck, because no matter how much one fighter be very resistant to take a lot of punches and stay on your feet when he fights against another fighter who specializes in knockout so he will receive very strong punches and having to take all that pressure will be difficult soon what will happen is that the first fighter who lands a punch very strong in a region of the opponent's body in which it is a vital region, so it will be the fighter who will come out of this fight as the winner

Yeah, it paper it looks like they have equal chances, 50/50, but according to sports bookies, they have their own reasons why they put Crawford as a slight favorite. And all across sports bookies, whether fiat or crypto based it will still remain the same, maybe a slight variance, but still Crawford the favorite.

Will we not see another date later? lately I have seen the dates of the fights being changed with a lot of frequency. anyway, the two fighters will have more time to prepare for the fight, but I hope that another event that draws more attention doesn't happen in July and overshadow this fight, because putting a fight further away will always have a problem, it would be very well if the fight was this month, but anyway we will see the fight next month if there is no postponement

Hopefully not, for now this is 99% going to happen, unless either one of them got injured in their training, or become sick or will have a accident or worst, involved in a domestic dispute.

Just a couple of reasons why the fight will be postponed. But crossing fingers, we can just hope that everything will be fine so that we can witnessed already one of the best fight for this year.
