Unbeaten Boxers Clash with Spence vs Crawford Odds
Four Welterweight Belts on the Line
Spence vs Crawford betting odds expect a close fight for the WBO, WBC, WBA, and IBF welterweight titles on Saturday.
Regarding upcoming boxing matches, it doesn’t get much bigger than Errol Spence Jr. vs Terence Crawford, who put their unbeaten records on the line.
Boxing odds have Crawford at -160, but as shown at previous boxing events, Spence Jr. can’t be overlooked as an underdog.
Crawford Brings the Class
Undoubtedly one of the finest pound-for-pound fighters in the world, Crawford continues to dominate his opponents with ease.
His Spence vs Crawford odds are well-deserved, especially after his impressive sixth-round knockout victory over David Avanesyan.
Crawford’s journey to an undefeated record of 39-0 has been far from simple, having convincingly defeated formidable opponents like Shawn Porter and Kell Brook, which measures up well against Spence.
While there may be ongoing discussions about who the superior boxer is, Crawford has consistently demonstrated his talent throughout his career. The confidence exuding from his team is not misplaced.
Bernard Davis, a long-time trainer. Crawford is going for the kill.
“It’s our time!,” Davis said. “They won’t overlook you, champ. All of y’all.
“You watchin’ greatness! Y’all better learn somethin’. You gotta wanna be great, huh?! Well, round here we carve ‘em like butter; make ’em put they hands in they pockets; make ‘em wanna put they guns down, disarm ’em!”
-160 is what we expected with boxing odds. Crawford is the more popular fighter, so money could come for him.
A Rare Underdog
Spence vs Crawford betting odds have the 28-0 fighter as the underdog, which isn’t a familiar position.
Having defeated a series of exceptional fighters in his career, Spence’s chances are not being underestimated.
Despite a 15-month hiatus since finishing Yordenis Ugas in the 10th round last year, the 33-year-old appears revitalized and fully prepared for his upcoming bout, but make no doubts about it, facing Crawford is by far his toughest test.
There is some concern surrounding his split decision victory over Porter, especially when compared to Crawford’s dominant performance against the same opponent.
Spence Jr.’s confidence lies in his belief that his jab and mobility will play pivotal roles in determining the fight’s outcome.
“When you go through the fight in your head, a million different scenarios flow through your head. Basically, for me, it’s just winning the fight and dictating my jab and, you know, sometimes range, in and out, and just different types of scenarios because I know he’s a great fighter,” Spence said.
Bettors could find some value with his +150 odds. He hasn’t paid this kind of money throughout his career, so there should be some bettors who jump on that price.
However, beating Crawford is easier said than done. It would take a career-best performance to get it done.
