# Tim Bradley Delivers Emphatic Spence-Crawford Prediction: “He’s A Different Animal”

Former two-division world champion, Tim Bradley, has revealed his emphatic prediction ahead of next month’s highly anticipated welterweight clash between Errol Spence Jr and Terence Crawford.

Bradley lost just twice in a thirty-six fight career, during which time he achieved world honours at both super-lightweight and welterweight, losing only to Manny Pacquiao, in a memorable trilogy rivalry.

As well as a win over PacMan, Bradley defeated the likes of Junior Witter, Lamont Peterson and Juan Manuel Marquez, earning him a place in the [International Boxing Hall of Fame.](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/carl-froch-to-be-inducted-into-boxing-hall-of-fame/)

In an interview with [Fight Hype](https://youtube.com/shorts/DGSwOt2GgdA?feature=share), Bradley explained why he believes Terence Crawford will come out on top and even get the stoppage over Spence.

> “The problem that I see with Spence every now and then is that when he can’t get to you, he pushes the temp a little bit more and he starts making mistakes and lunging forwards with his attacks. You can’t do that with Crawford.
>
> You start making mistakes and lunging forward, getting overly aggressive, he’s going to time you with something. I think his job is to frustrate the c\*\*p out of Spence, he’s going to get him acting overly aggressive and he is going to run him into something. That is why I saw Crawford by stoppage.
>
> Some people say like ‘a car accident hasn’t even stopped this man, Spence is different, he’s built different’. I get it, I understand, but you don’t understand that Crawford is a different animal and the best fighter of this generation.
>
> He can make adjustments, he has more tools in his toolbox, to be able to make adjustments against what Spence does.”
