“If you compare Errol Spence to Terence Crawford, there was no comparison. I’m already going to the Hall of Fame. If we retire now, he won’t go to the Hall of Fame.”

Crawford then boasted that his win over Spence was easy compared to other opponents on his resume, adding, “But when it’s all said and done, if you look at my fight with Errol Spence and how easily I beat Errol Spence in compared to all these guys they call bums, they should tell them something right there.

“The guys you called bums fought better than your favorite fighter.

“I’m not saying he didn’t put up a good fight and it was easy, because by far it’s never easy in the ring. But the fight was much easier than I thought.”

“He was practicing his rematch and that’s the fight that should happen next,” Crawford said.

“So we’ll see how the negotiations go and how everything goes. We’re supposed to fight in December, and I’m back training.”
