Danny Garcia might say that Spence is better than Crawford, but I would believe more on Shawn Porter who faced both boxers and IIRC, Porter said that Crawford is the better fighter, so maybe if we listen to this guy, we will have a good basis and we will not be biased.

Yep, obviously. I'm also in favour of what Porter said.
Based on his fight for both Crawford and Spence, I can say Crawford have a better and effective plan against Porter's aggressiveness. We all knew Porter's style of play, Crawford executed very well to deliver that knock out.
While on the other hand, with his fight against Spence, i can say that was really a close one. Without that round 11 quick knock down, Porter could've won it.

Well apart from those things, I think that this time Crawford is much more hungry for victory and this is something that when a boxer is clear about it he would do anything to achieve it, to see Crawford how everything has gone, in his training and everything could I clearly said that Crawford, even if his body fails him, will not give up, maybe Spence has a better level in every way right now, but sometimes the desire can overcome anything, and above all the perseverance that he has had Crawford, I'm sure he's not going to waste the opportunity around the world, plus Crawford is much more complete and wants to show what he's made of.

I think it's more of Crawford really wanted to show that he is the best among the best in this welterweight. And I think some of us will agree to that and thinking that Crawford could be the slight favorite in this fight.

So that is also a good form of motivation (and so with Spence). And as discussed, they fought the same fighter in Porter and Crawford win is the most impressive, causing Porter to retire for good in boxing.

Precisely for that reason is that I would like Crawford not to lose, it would be a shame if he retired, I know that Spence is at another level and can make a difference with any boxer, for me Spence is one of the best boxers there is currently, I don't know how I would classify him, but he is a very good fighter. There has been a lot of speculation regarding Crawford, especially because of the weight, now if we get to see Crawford he really wants to fight and this is something that helps him a lot, now if we take into account the different bets that are going to generate thanks to this fight, the public will love this show.
