Former world champion in two categories, American Danny Garcia considers Errol Spence (28-0, 22 KOs) a favorite in the upcoming fight against Terence Crawford (38-0, 29 KOs) for the title of absolute champion of the welterweight division (up to 66.7 kg).
He shared his thoughts on this with
Fighthype.
“At first it was 50/50, but now for some reason I’m leaning more towards Spence winning,” Garcia says. “I think he will be too strong (for Crawford), and also his workrate.”
“The only thing is, he (Spence) shouldn’t get hit by Crawford’s heavy artillery, because if he does, he will be shocked,” Danny said. “Either way, Errol wins. Crawford throws shorter punches, which is why his punches are stronger. Spence’s punches are longer, but he breaks you down little by little. So he’s number one (in the division) and a lot of people start from that, but I’m looking at styles.”
Note that the Spence-Crawford fight has not yet been officially announced, but according to rumors, they can fight in October.
