Crawford: 'I have a lot of respect for Spence'

“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.
