“I fucking respect Errol. I have said for many years that I have been a fan of his since my amateur days. I follow his career, nothing personal, ”said Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) after a convincing victory over Errol Spence Jr. (28-1, 22 KOs).
“I think the fans who take sides are trying to make it personal by trying to separate two boxers with the same goal of becoming the undisputed welterweight champion. I felt like the fans were trying to do it. I never hated Errol Spence. When he had an accident, I wished him all the best. I hoped he would come back stronger than ever. I pray for him because I don't want anything bad to happen to the boxer. I am a boxer myself and I know how difficult it is to reach this level. We all do it for the same reason, to feed our families. I would never wish anything bad on any of the boxers, ”summed up the newly minted welterweight leader.
