Terence Crawford’s disrespect for Errol Spence backfires

Terence Crawford, who in September will face the toughest test of his career when he fights Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, questioned the legacy of Errol Spence Jr. and whether he can enter the Hall of Fame, words that may come back to haunt him.

It all started during a conversation between ‘Bud’ and MMA legends Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo, in which he spoke of his dream of becoming world champion.

And while Crawford says he does not dislike Errol Spence, he was upset because he believes that critics downplay his achievements, even after moving up in weight to face and beat Spence. “They try to tarnish my achievement just to boost him up,” he said.

Terence Crawford belittles Errol Spence Jr’s legacy

When asked if ‘The Truth’ should be in the Hall of Fame, Crawford said not yet.

“Right now, no,” he said, before delving into his answer: “He fought in one division; they already called him a weight bully. He beat Kell Brook, eh, after a loss and an eye injury, you know? He beat Shawn Porter…”, making it clear that he is not sure if Spence has done enough to earn a place in the Hall of Fame

The boxing specialist, Showbizz The Adult, lashed out at Crawford, saying that the Nebraska native belittles his own resume by criticizing the state of the pugilists who have faced both Spence and him.

The analyst commented that while Kell Brook was compromised when he faced Spence, as he had not recovered from a previous eye injury, Brook was possibly in worse shape, both mentally and physically, when he stepped into the ring against ‘Bud’, three years later. Brook was “depressed”, he said.

He also gave the example of former world champion Amir Khan: “Amir Khan was completely destroyed”.

Showbizz The Adult clearly states that Crawford is “belittling his own resume” by devaluing rivals they have had in common. “Stop doing that. I think you’re great; please stop doing that, brother!”, recommends the boxing specialist.

The review found that there has been more drag on the ball in 2025 than in any of the previous nine seasons during which MLB has tracked this data.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThose results would appear to indicate that the ball used this season is different.

Caitlin Clark to make her return to Fever lineup vs. Liberty after missing five games with quad strain

Getty Images Caitlin Clark will make her return to the court this Saturday, when the Indiana Fever host the New York Liberty at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the team announced Friday. Clark was initially expected to miss four games after suffering a quad strain during the 90-88 loss to the Liberty on May 24, but instead missed five contests. She said rushing back wouldn't be "worth it," but now feels good enough to return to the lineup. Clark was averaging 19 points, 6 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game before the quad strain injury. She actually hadn't missed a game since high school, and her inactive status on May 28 vs. the Washington Mystics snapped a streak of 185 consecutive games played. With Caitlin Clark and Tyrese Haliburton leading Fever and Pacers, Indy has become center of basketball world Jack Maloney The 4-5 Fever are 2-3 […]
