Respect to George Foreman. 👊🏿
Respect to Terence. 👊🏿
A phenomenal performance.
Respect to Errol. 👊🏿
He refused to quit.
A MESSAGE TO BOXING FANS & BOXING MEDIA.
IF YOU WANT GREAT FIGHTS IN THEIR PRIME.
STOP MOCKING FIGHTERS WHEN THEY LOSE.
Spence is a top 10 pound for pound fighter. Literally anybody in 147-154 that’s not Crawford, Spence demolishes. Crawford went Super Saiyan on Saturday, but let’s see how Spence handles his first loss. We might or might not witness Spence’s Super Saiyan moment. Sometimes all it takes is that loss. I wanna see him perfect his footwork, counterpunching, and hand speed, alongside a better S&C regimen. Bud’s motivation was the naysayers and everyone counting him out. Now Spence’s motivation is to get it back in blood. He’s cut from a different cloth. Even if he don’t win the rematch, I promise we’re gonna see a different Spence for the better.
Well said, both of you.
Mr. Foreman said that you can't box a boxer, which is true, but in the case of Crawford, the problem with that is, Bud has the ability to out box you AND out PUNCH you. Crawford once literally stopped a fighter on a body shot. He's like prime Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roy Jones Etc. where they can straight up fight as well as they can box. Simply put, Crawford is in a different league then Spence.
Let’s not get carried away
Welcome to the Bud Crawford Era ladies and gentlemen. 🥊
Spence threw more punches...but the timing was just terrible to say the least..and it wasn't nothing special that Crawford did either
Spence has also stopped a fighter with a body shot as well. Bud has proved that his is a better fighter, but Spence is still a great fighter.
@@Jose-gc2pz nothing special he did? Bud landed 60 percent of his power shots! That's insane!
So much information, history and knowledge in a legend like Foreman. Definitely a top interview!
George Foreman has an amazing sense of humour. Love it! Thank you
Losers give up when they are down. Ali lost to Frazier the first fight. Did he give up? Ali was out of boxing due to the war and came back. People who tell you to give up after you fall should never give advice.
Yeah and neither 1 of them was cut up and busted up bleeding like that he cant take that punishment he got to stay away from him he will lose the match that way theyll call it from blood loss on the fact he wouldn't he able to see to fight.
@KISSMIBUT27 Ali loss to Frazier was a very close fight . Bud completely dominated Spence. That's the big difference
@takelasmith406 dude did u see Frazier eyes and Ali jaw after that fight? Lmao
@@takelasmith406Boxers have a different mind set than the average person in the street. We have seen fighters get KTFO only to come back and get their revenge.
Look he can try again and win or get another ass whoop.. persistence doesn't equals success sometimes it's insanity. One needs to know when to stop. People who tell you to keep marching to your death should never give advice...
Rob was fanned out😂I love it . Much respect to the great George Foreman
The amount of burgers robs had on a foreman is unimaginable
@@mistahozzy 😂
@@mistahozzynever owned one and never tried it.
@@mistahozzyhe should have put his name on the Air Fryer. 😂😂😂 I own a couple of those.
This is crazy, I can’t believe I’m listening to this, always stay together guys 💯💯🔥🔥🔥
"I've always been lucky like that" 💥🥊💥 classic comeback from the great biGGeorgeForeman🥊💥🥊🔥🥊💥🥊
car accidents, broken or detached retina , 15 month lay I expected Spence to lose this fight now he has the opportunity to come back stronger and better in the rematch even if he still loses I expect a more contested bout
Wow! The Joe Louis , Max Smelling was an EXCELLENT example.
Absolute legend and awesome role model
go listen to his commentary on the Trinadad vs Hopkins fight he absolutely didn't know what be was talking about
Really good interview 👌🏾
💯 Adversity is the best education...definitely want to see Spence try again
Definitely don’t Crawford counters are too fast. Spence needs to move on or he loses twice then retires and not as great as we thought
For the culture job my guys..! Love and respect and appreciate y’all!!! Very proud!!!
Great interview!!!! The odd couple is best thing in sports media today!!!
Love that you had a legend on to discuss the fight ❤🙏
People lost millions on this fight.
🗣️SPENCES don’t listen to these people they don’t care if you die in that boxing ring they trying to win back that money they lost by betting against you this time smh
🤦🏾
😅😅😅😅 I'm not trying to be funny on the health aspect of what you're saying! You are totally correct. I never saw spence as a threat to Crawford. I saw Keith Thurman as a threat!
I Agree 20000% ✊🏾👊🏾✊🏾
That’s why Vegas always win they bet the house on Bud because no matter what Spence did there’s no way a drunk could beat a gym rat.
Great interview fella's....
Great answers champ 🏆 👍 👏 👌 💪
Great media 👏 👌....
Excellent interview and great get.
MR FOREMAN!! YOU'RE GONNA GET HIM HURT!🗣🗣 😂😂😂😂
If he ain't already. You don't see that kind of punishment taken by champions very often.
This is a man who can relate to what Spence is going through right now. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
Great show. Keep up the great work.
Great interview. George foreman is funny 😂
The problem with what Foreman said is Spence didn’t have any good rounds to build on
Yeah, he got outclassed outside of a few body shots
Shout to Big George. Went all the way back to Joe Louis to help make a case for Errol. The problem is, by doing that, he only further shows and proves the Greatness of BUD. Thanks Big George.
You guys have a really good show. Thank you.
Boxers and their promoters today are so worried about losing their undefeated record. Errol has nothing to be ashamed of. The likes of Ali, Forman, De La Hoya, Leonard and other greats all took Ls in their career
Spence isn't the same, but I agree. When two great fighters face off, someone has to lose. They should bring back the superfights of the 70s-90s where ducking is against the rules. Take the belt away from duckers. Mayweather is an example of a ducker.
@@jeremyjames1659Thats why he is 50-0. Dont be ridiculous.
He’s extremely positive
THAT WAS FUNNY AT THE END .. "I MUST HAVE HAD 75 LUCKY SHOTS LIKE THAT THEN"
That was beautiful thanks odd couple spence needs to hear that much respect... °cL-79°
Don't think the rematch will be any better. End of year too quick of a turnaround.
Spence is like 35? He's not going to learn more boxing. He already has the tools that he has. The only thing that must be different is strategy and being at 154. Whether that's enough, who knows. Bud looked incredible.
@@Bardamu3000 In boxing anything can happen. So to say that, just shows your ignorance.
Great interview
You have to be tactical on assessments.
1. Spence doesn’t need to retire. He needs a significant amount of time off.
2. During that time off, obviously, it’s to heal. BUT, he needs to retool. He needs to add to his bag.
3. People are saying he looked bad. If you’ve ever been hit in your ear, your equilibrium is off. The 2nd knockdown was straight to his ear. Your equilibrium takes a while to come back. He was done after that 2nd knockdown. His balance was way off.
4. Boxers know, styles make fights. This was a very bad fight for Spence. He could have been in perfect shape, and it wouldn’t have mattered. His style is perfect for Bud.
Spence can come back, but he needs time for healing AND retooling. He has never had any movement. Heal for three months, get back in the gym and retool, and he can make some things happen at 154/160. Take about 3 fights of C fighters to put the new retooling to use and get sharp again, and he can be at or close to the top again. However, if he doesn’t change his style, he will just be a top five fighter in whatever weight class, but not dominant.
Spence got his ass whipped by the p4p #1 boxer. Spence down. Now Thurman want’s to get his ass whipped One time. Welcome to the Bud Crawford Era ladies and gentlemen. 🥊
Thurman been ducking Bud for damn near a decade! Just like Spence did. I think they rematch at 154 if Spence wants too. Then bud vs charlo
Keep sleeping on Thurman. He's not as bad as people may think.
100000%% Respect ✊🏾👊🏾✊🏾
@@jasonhoppe781 Spence aint duck Bud lmao.
"I must've had about 75 lucky shots like that" is such a Sensei level flex. Mad won 76 fights out of 81 with 68 knockouts!
Great interview 👍🏾
I felt sorry for Spence. Noone loved him enough to tell him the truth. And the truth was he just wasnt up to it. They knew it but everyones pay packet was riding on this young blood. And then you know what happens? They die in the ring or on the streets when they're dried up and done.
The Louis/Schmeling reference is quite appropriate, for REAL boxing fans.
You can tell it's the young cats who don't understand the reference and just think Spence is done after one loss. They never saw when boxing was a gladiator sport and warriors would do rematches and do even better. Which is how it SHOULD be.
They get off being antagonists like their trashy mothers. Only trashy having kid just for child support women and men who admire their mothers a little too much act like them. And the proof has been on display in male athletics for quite some now.
My favorite one I just played it 4 times thanks again
What George looking at Spence needs a miracle
Funny how when u lose they tell u to retire they done the same to wilder, someone has to lose but to tell a man to retire is stupid
I really like that interview 😅😅😅😊
Idc what anyone says, that was not EJ that stepped out to fight ‘Bud! I said very little about the fight before it because I knew it was a mistake to take that fight after a 18 month layoff, Bud had too much momentum, and Errol looked like a fighter that hasn’t fought in 18 months! That’s on Darren James and his team for sending him out there like that
Who tf is Darren James lol
I can tell that your just a casual fan
Excuse excuses excuses excuses
@@anthonyfisher8338 it was a typo damnit 😂
@@joco2826 Where the excuse? I’m speaking facts! I said it was a mistake to send him in the ring half stepping!
George Foreman is crazy! T Bud Crawford foreseen what was going to happen 5 years ago! Spence doesn’t want anymore smoke!!
Didn't Errol beat Ugas after his crash? ,he looked good then ,so I'm confused why everyone mentions the crash
Rite
He didn’t look good at all. Every time ugas hit him, he acted like his body was in shock
@pedrojello8983 ok I got to rewatch that didn't notice
They trying to get people to pay for the rematch
If you watched the fight bud could’ve did more damage to Spence. He kept looking at the ref and he never stopped the fight. Fight was suppose to been stopped in the 5th round.
Advanced head movement training, put 2 pound weights around each of Errol's wrist and have him do speedbag punching (with the weights on) heavy bag (without the wrist weights), footwork training....concentrating on cutting of the ring then "targeted punching" (jaw, temple, eye, bridge of nose, ears, left/right sides of neck, sternum, rib and liver shots (aim 2 to 3 inches above the waistline from left to right side of waist)
Exercises - basic calisthenics (push ups, crunches, pull ups and dips) PLYOMETRICS, swimming, bike riding, sauna once a week 45 min to an hour.
Counterpunching taught by a martial artist (preferably Jeet Kune Do trainer)
One year to year and a half of all these suggestions made into a training plan/regiment and if he were to start training two months from now by New Years Day 2025. Errol would be ready to knock Crawford clean out and do more damage than Crawford did to him (significantly more). I would put thousands of dollars on that version of Spence (at 154 pds).
Guaranteed.
Your delusional! Too emotional and you talk for nothing
I love this masterclass. You know exactly what spence can do to avenge his loss
You should be an advisor in spence next camp for the Rematch
@@jayshah9967 If Spence incorporated what I suggested into his training regiment for the next year (minimum) the rematch would be a different fight. If Spence didn't win, it would be a draw, at worst. I'd put my life on it. He's only 33, and it would have to be at 154. Not giving him an excuse, I just personally didn't like how he looked at weigh-in.
@@jayshah9967 From Tae Kwon Do at 11, advanced combat hitting skills in the Marines (96-2000), Marine Corps Boxing League (one year 1997), close quarters fighting, several studies from Jeet Kune Do to basic jiujitsu and the study of Dim Mak (pressure point attacks).
By no means am I an expert, but utilize those techniques and that would turn any fighters (in top tier shape of course), into a pure savage.
Deontay Wilder could benefit from it, but for him....I cut away half of this and just concentrate on the basics in the half I'd use. Too big, too old and his legs are developed enough for that entire regiment. Errol is still 2 to 3 years away from his prime, granted the long term effects of those accidents he was in.
George had way too many burgers! Spence needs to stay away from boxing for at least 1 year! Spence looked BAD! If I was Spence I would consider retirement. That car accident did WAY too much damage to Errol.
Stop making excuses
No he don't. He just need to stay away from Crawford for a year maybe. His first two fights after the accident, we didn't hear nothing about he need to retire. Yall some fair-weather fans, boy I tell you
Tell me you know nothing about sports without saying you know nothing about sports.
MAN BUD DIDNT EVEN DOMINATE MEAN MACHINE OR PORTER LIKE THAT OR SHOW DAM NEAR THE HERCULES STRENGTH HE HAD VS SPENCE , IM CALLLING PERFORMANCE ENHANCERS ,DUDE WORKING WITH CONTE
@@Chali_M excuse me Bro but when he fought Ugas, Ugas caught him in the face and he didn't look good then either. His skills got him that win in the 10th rd. but if he could have kept it going, Spence would have gotten more hurt than he was! Did you see him after THAT fight?! I don't want to see Errol with permanent damage done to him and I know deep down you don't either!
Lucky punch!!!? Naw, lucky POWER! If you drop a guy off the 1-2 w/o sitting on your punches, it’s pure POWER!
We’ve never seen a performance like that from Crawford.. not like that…. something was wrong with Errol.. can’t wait for the rematch 😈
Spence will break your heart yet again in the rematch. Trust!
Your sonsad buddy wasynothing wrong with spence until he fought Crawford excuses wasn't nothing wrong with spence in his two fights before Crawford and after the accident same song from you spence junkies bottom line is this add it up nobody said nothing was wrong with spence till he fought Crawford
He going to lose again no matter what five years ago he still would have lost that's why he never wanted to fight crawford said that years ago he would make Spence look like an amateur
George Foreman's brain has been grilled.
George opinion carries weight
LMAO
If there's anyone who has the experience and credibility to talk about making a successful comeback after a disheartening loss, it's George Foreman.
George Foreman is a Champs Champion 🏆
I still got one lol. That bad boy is boomin
I mean he could...anything is possible but is it probable????? No...how can Errol Spence jr change his entire fighting style in 5 months? He supposedly wants a rematch in December that's not even enough time to fully recover from that ass whooping.
You must not have been watching boxing long because there has been plenty boxers that come back from K.O's and win the next fight in boxing history. In Errols case, he may need to hang up his boxing gloves. He didn't even look like he was in the top 10 Welterweights in that fight.
@@generalbrowser680that’s because Crawford was that much better , Spence got beat like the late great Frazier did against George and did he coke back and win in the rematch ???? Foh
@@generalbrowser680Crawford was carrying him and toying with him so the fact that all y’all are overlooking his easily dominance performance and next fight he will put Spence to sleep .
@@morelljohnson3168 In that ONE EXAMPLE, no. Many many more fights have happened. Did you not listen to this full interview. George gave you another example.
Now, ya'll getting like Fury fans. I'm a Bud fan too, but not as arrogant. I like his style, but I know in boxing anything can happen.
I agree
I never seen so many scary people who never been in a fight in their lives question if Errol spence can come back
@anotherway18 the only thing I’m scared of, is your mother rolling over on me in bed.
Exactly. The amount of cowards that live among us in this day and time is Scary
I've been in plenty of fights growing up, wrestled in high school, and even at 41 now I train in boxing. The skill gap is too large here and these aren't heavyweights so the chances of Errol sparking Crawford with just one shot will be hard. Spence had zero head movement, footwork was trash, and walked straight forward. He also lunged on punches which got him put down the first time. These are all fundamental things we learn consistently in class.
@@t24moorefella, BoMac had to go to the UFC to train Dud for Spence!! They coached Dud better than he could!🤣🤣🤣
@@Blacattacsquadron nothing wrong with that
Punch drunk. Who in their right mind believe he could just walk back into a rematch with Bud, and win? Bro Bud proved he IS DIFFERENT. Even if it were a higher weight, Terence will motivate him self like he always does and take it to ANOTHER level. That man has no chance. Period.
Foreman being nice
I would love to see the rematch
Respect to Mr Forman but Errol has zero chance. There wasn't anything in that fight that showed you he has some hope. It's inspirational to say get back up and try again but it's also insanity to keep going down a road that could take your life or health.
For the 💰
😂 Bruh, y'all need to stop gassing Spence up for another ass whipping
Real Talk Foresure ✊🏾👊🏾✊🏾
The great George Foreman
George sounds great
Rob Parker is a pocket watcher I see 😂
I just finished making me to Hamburgers on my George Foreman grill it's 2003 in August
Who was fu* kin in the background?😂
George would be the perfect person to talk to Spence to get his confidence back
I hear everyone saying what adjustments Spence need to make for the rematch with Bud. The question should be what adjustments Bud is going to make.
Foreman sound Great
I'm amazed how well George's brain is working, giving how much he's been hit in the head... 74 yo, it's really amazing
Well if one of Crawford’s arms falls off the day before the rematch, absolutely Spence has a chance.
George Foreman knows what he’s talking about when it comes to boxing. Can’t disregard what he says
@spenser6353 That’s a fair point.
@@spenser6353 boxing for heavyweights. Completely different game with lighter smaller welterweight fighters who usually don't have the luxury of 200 plus pounds of mass behind their punches.
@@spenser6353apparently he doesn’t and a lot of other boxers thought Crawford was getting stopped. They were all wrong. Foreman just trying get relevant again lmao
plenty of others who know boxing and predicted the fight perfectly are saying Spence has no chance and got beaten up so badly that he will never be the same. Didn't Foreman say Spence would win? He says Spence needs to stay close instead of box, but Crawford was superior at range and up close including in the clinch. Spence will never beat Crawford.
Spence cannot beat Terrence even if you retrain him. Terrence can anticipate a punch. No sir he can't back in the day they really trained like Crawford does. So you can't compare what they did back then to now.
Had one, asked my lady to buy me the large George Forman grill for Christmas 2 years ago
This is journalism
This comment section is full of people who most likely have limited knowledge on boxing or sports in general. Losing in whatever manner doesn't mean the loser is trash and should retire. What idiots 😂. Some time off to train and work out for a pro athlete should cause for improvement. Foreman is right.
I didn’t say Spence should retire, he should just never fight Crawford again. Quit crying.
@@wilcee238crying? Very quick to use the word crying as if that makes you superior! You're probably one of the biggest snitches when 💩 goes down! GTFOH!!
George is just riding for a fellow texan
You can FIGHT every kind of boxer and fighter when you got power like BigGeorge...its not everyones cup of tea 😂
Mad respect to one of the greatest heavyweights in history
I wish they would have asked him how many people he mugged before he got caught. lol
Errol Spencer Jr. Will get knockout again in a Early Round."
FORMAN TALKING CRAZY !
Bud was hitting Spence in between Spence's punches. More volume means more counters.
While Big George is nice, he's wrong sometimes. I remember he was predicting a Trinidad knockout WHILE Hopkins was battering him..!😮😅
That wasn’t the 100% percent Crawford if Errol thinks he can beat Crawford he needs a lot of training Crawford was fighting him south paw the whole fight
Even if tries to brawl or fight Crawford. Crawford can do that too. Crawford has all the tools
George calls Bud the other guy. George, hes just the undefeated best lb for lb fighter of this generation that put on a clinic. 41-0.
Spence has brain 🧠 damage he should retire honorable loosing to a better man. He can really end up with his faculties not in tact.
people talking about crawford being disrespected because a boxer as beloved as foreman says spence can beat him in a rematch. only a fool would question crawford's ability but pushing spence to fight again by year's end might get him killed which i can't condone even coming from george. rob parker says stuff that dumb but no one else should.
foreman also had james page ahead of Roy Jones pound for pound
That was not a lucky shot! He pushed for it! He worked for it! He got the shot!
I have tremendous respect, even admiration for George Foreman as a boxer. And even more so as a person. He's a person of considerable intelligence and character. But I just cannot agree with his assessment here. I just cannot see how Spence can beat Crawford who outboxed and outpunched him in the first fight. He was outclassed in every department.
Spence got that Joshua chin that’s all. He can’t take a punch like we thought and he always seemed slower to me after the incident. He slurs when he talks and there might be some real internal damage to Spence we don’t know about. He was way over confident for the fight almost delusional in a way. Gorge Forman doesn’t sound like riddick bowe when he talks Spence does he sounds punch drunk already at a young age.
James murray, Oh Man Thank you, Thank you Thank you George Foreman A Great Legendary Hall Of Famer and Heavy Weight Champion putting it all in it,s proper persoective when Chris Brussard asked George do he feel Spense can beat Terrance Crawford in the Rematch and he replied by saying ( YES And Big George Foreman is right, Terrance Crawford is on CLOUD-NINE AND HIS HEAD AND HIS EGO IS BIGGEST A HOUSE, For the way he beat Spense that was,nt at the Peak of his Capabilities, and had over-trained and making that 147-pound weight and his In--activity. Terrance Crawford Lovers and Fans can,t see it, but coming from an Expierienced World Heavy weight fighter and Champion of a big man that,s been there and knows what he,s talking about all these Crawford fans and Media people are just based on opinions that,s worth about 2--CENTS. The Boxing game is a Business and Soense made enough 💰 💰 💰 💰, that he,s Financially Secured for the rest if his Life Im so glad that George Foreman kept it real and not kissing Terrance Bud Crawford rear--end like so many are doing and giving up on Spense throwing him under the Bus and putting ( TERRANCE BUD CRAWFORD ON---MT. RUSHMORE THANK YOU SO MYCH GEORGE FOREMAN GREAT INTERVIEW.
Big George, you are completely out of line. At no point did Errol land anything hard on Crawford. It is easy to see that Crawford is by far the better boxer, more power, quicker, smarter, etc. Best thing for Errol is to not have a rematch, if they do fight again it will only be worse for Errol. My hope is Errol knows when to say when and lives a long healthy life.
He landed several hard shots on Crawford
I think foreman is rite...it was just a bad night for Spence..the timing was terrible...
George is talking about what boxing used to be and should return to. Take the hard fights and if and when you lose, you get the back to the drawing board and become better. All these guys ducking each other and running up these inflated undefeated records is hurting the sport. For Spence to be knocked down for the first time in his career and he’s like 35 is wild. Not saying he’s not that good I’m saying he’s never been challenged. Normally I roll my eyes at the back in my day stuff from old heads but they are spot on when it comes to boxing. Spence can comeback from this if he made of the right stuff
Spence has no chance. Bud now has data on him.
@@brandoneverett3239the problem is guys dont fight period. Spence fought once in 2020 no fights in 21 one fight in 22. Top guys fight once a year. But its actualky more dangerous cause guys are rusty and not in rythm end up taking beatings like this you gotts stay active to stay sharp
Never seen or heard from so many Monday morning Quarterbacks
If and when they fight again it will be part 2 of of a continual epic ass whooping. 🥊🤠
I'm waiting for Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk. But I don't think this fight will happen. Fury is scared!
Hulk Hogan stay lying.
Gotta love big George!!!!!!
This is the only chance Spence has to come back. But this ain’t no movie lol
I hope someone helps Derrick out and gives some different eyes to Spence
No rematch!
Rob you say you was in college using a George Foreman grill That's a lie ha ha ha 🤣 Rob you went to college back in the '60s 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
