Sparring accomplice Freudis Rojas predicts an excellent sooner knockout victory for Terence Crawford in his rematch towards Errol Spence Jr. within the first quarter of 2024.
Spence, 33, has activated his rematch clause, desirous to attempt to avenge his ninth spherical knockout loss towards Crawford from final July on Showtime PPV.
Most followers imagine that Spence is simply hanging round for the cash he’ll get from the rematch towards Terence and can then cling up his gloves a rich man.
Errol’s choices are restricted
After all, the huge payday that Spence can be getting in a second struggle with Terence is one more reason he’s insisting on a rematch.
With out that, Spence would take an enormous pay minimize, preventing one of many contenders at 154, which is division is nearly fully barren of in style fighters apart from Jermell Charlo and Tim Tszyu. Spence won’t ever struggle Jermell as a result of they’re shut mates.
Rojas says Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) has former IBF, WBA & WC welterweight champion Spence (28-1, 22 KOs) all “discovered,” and it’s going to be simple once they meet once more.
There nonetheless isn’t a scheduled date for the Crawford-Spence 2 rematch, as PBC has to determine issues out when to stage it with Amazon Prime PPV in early 2024.
With Showtime now not broadcasting boxing, PBC has been pressured to seek out one other community for his or her fighters.
If the purses for Crawford & Spence are tied into PPV gross sales, they might be disillusioned as a result of followers should not interested by seeing a second struggle.
There can be if Spence redeemed himself with two or three wins over fighters like Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis, Tim Tszyu, Brian Mendoza, or Erickson Lubins.
Spence isn’t about to struggle these guys as a result of he may lose, and that might wreck his rematch payday towards Crawford.
Crawford will waste no time
“I believe Bud goes to cease him sooner this time as a result of he’s actually acquired him discovered,” stated Freudis Rojas to Fighthype about his view that Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford will defeat Errol Spence Jr. even simpler of their rematch in 2024 than he did final July.
“It didn’t appear to be he gave Bud any issues in any respect, however it’s boxing, and he has two palms. Actually, one punch can change all the struggle. For my part, he’ll in all probability cease him sooner by stoppage.”
It’s troublesome to see a path to victory for the 33-year-old Spence, as he was so badly overmatched final time. Crawford had Errol discovered from the soar and dominated him on the within and out of doors.
Spence might want to use strain like final time, and hope that it really works as a result of he can’t win the rematch by staying at vary towards the longer-armed Crawford.
Will lightning strike twice?
If Spence had one-punch energy, that might clearly assist as a result of he afford to lose rounds whereas ready to land that one huge KO shot.
“Bud even stated it himself. ‘As soon as I beat you, they’re going to say rehydration, and also you had been too huge.’ He stated it from the start that’s the excuse they had been saying, lots of people have been saying,” stated Rojas concerning the excuses from Workforce Spence.
It must be fascinating to see if Rojas’ prediction of a sooner knockout victory for Crawford comes true. An upset victory for Spence can be huge, as it could give him the chance to inform followers that his earlier defeat was a fluke they usually’d imagine him.
“Even when he’s [Spence] rehydrated, I nonetheless suppose he’s going to be the identical actual factor. Spence, he all the time fought like that, I believe. Even he was drained. He had a full day [after the weigh-in]. There was no rehydration clause. I believe Bud would demolish him once more,” stated Rojas.
