    Fight of the year tonight and for many years. Finally a weight division that wants one champion and it's so hard to call. There is only two years between them. Bookies have Crawford the slight favourite, which is a surprise with Spence holding three of the four belts. I reckon Spence on points. There is a rematch clause for the loser to get another chance before the end of 2023, which I like.

    I'm in the Crawford camp, but your spot on equally matched, we'll see.

    Be nice to see a KO by either, but it would be a surprise.

    Definately think Spence might be too big, strong for Crawford but i think Crawford has the better ring craft, but yer reight lets hope its a humdinger.

    Bet 365 offering a 7/4 super boost for a knock down. Not sure anyone will hit the deck for a ten count though, but Skybet offer only 6/5 for Spence to be knocked down.

    Crawford was amazing. To knock down someone three times that's never been knocked down is some performance. Second weight division he's been undisputed champion in and he had Eminem there. Spence probably shouldn't take the rematch. Having only two fights in four years showed.
