Virgil gave up alot of good points. He broke it down from all angles and made it simplistic… good job Virgil
Yep. Pretty much sums it up.
He's a hater. They really hate Spence. Lmmfao
@@Itsallaboutyoureactions lol
@@Itsallaboutyoureactionsso any and everyone that doesn’t pick Spence is a hater. Grow UP!
Yes Hater. Make sure that you're there to hold Bud hands as he's going to the hospital. Lmmfao. Clown Show At It's Best. FOH
Virgil is a legend🙌🏿 broke it down convincingly.
Very intelligent teacher
The way this guy broke everything down and it played out exactly how he said. You can tell when someone's an expert or have been around the sport just by all the factors he took into context. 💯
Coach Virgil sheds his veil of mystery to reveal the brilliance of his thinking. He's like a Ph.D of Boxing, holding court, commanding both curiosity and respect. A good man. In the real old style.
💥🥊🐓✊
SPOT ON! His breakdown was eloquently put
Exquisitely Put.
Breadman is a smart guy, sleeper as the best up and coming trainers (pause) He really sat back and let Virgil talk…. Soaked up more game👌🏿
No homo
Facts. You can see the respect.
@@SilverLake401 you gay lol
@@ayoa3892 you gay too? 🌈🤭
Yeah I rock with breadman he's definitely a future HOF coach/trainer
Hunter looks 10 years younger
Vergil looking and sounding like a Kung Fu master. Definitely wish he did more interviews.
I like how he said Terrance is built from the ground up not the shoulder down that’s something I’ve been working on and seeing great results
I find it so funny that people still saying all these things about Errol when in all actuality we don’t know which Errol will show up. Errol can box Crawford like he did Mikey or walk down Crawford like he did UGAS. We don’t really know
Crawford show a lot more wrinkles and elements when boxing from long and mid range. While we’ve seen EJ best and most destructive work on the inside. So it’s probably best for EJ to try and walk him down and do damage while Bud is still getting his timing down. Personally If I was Derrick my plan would be to jump on Crawford early then ease off and box behind the jab. If Bud starts slow and EJ jumps on him, Crawford will be looking to get his get back that’s when you stick the jab in his face and prevent Crawford from doing that. In the later rounds I’d tell EJ to turn it to 100 and go after him.
They're offering opinions based on what they've seen and experience. They're not absolute truths
@@brooklyn560 good points but I've seen many fights where EJ started out out boxing his opponents and then started stalking them. When he box them the fights were very easy for him. Like he said. He could have just out boxed Porter and made it look easy but it would have been boring to many. He out boxed both Mikey and Danny and made it look super easy.
He can’t box Crawford like he did Mikey cuz Mikey reach is 68 Crawfords is 74…2 inches longer than Spence so the way he boxed Mikey I doubt he’s successful the same way against Crawford
@@36983 Spence can box very well and being a good boxer is not dependent on your reach. Ive boxed on a amateur level and having good fundamentals with a good skillset plays a big role. Spence could easily stay on the outside and just outbox Crawford. Spence outboxed and stopped Algeri when Pacquiao couldn't and won every round boxing Mikey who was supposed to be the better boxer. You stop a counter puncher with faints and a double jab
Didn’t even recognize Vergil you can tell he getting some ass now 😂
😂😂
Ellerbe inspired him 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Man! I wasn't expecting to read some shit like this 🤣🤣🤣
LMAO I couldn’t tell at first either not used to seeing him with a cap and facial hair but this comment is hilarious 😂
😂😂
Great analysis by Virgil Hunter! He has mastered the game from all angles. This is one of the best technical breakdowns of a fight that I can remember since Emmanuel Stewart (RIP)

ONE OF THE KINGPINS OF BOXING COACHES
..LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...MR..VERGIL HUNTER!
Bredis Prescott was the first guy to KO Amir Khan before Canelo & bud. Just so happens that Terence Crawford dominated Bredis Prescott . Bud would beat any version of khan. Salute to khan, he was a warrior.
He didn’t stop Bredis but he outclassed him almost effortlessly. & I had Prescott beating Crawford when that fight happened
He did not knock him out wtf u talking bout😂😂😂😂
Swift smoked him also
@@eastsideleek313 dominated Prescott & stopped khan***
@@TrumpApproves okay okay I agree 😂
Virgil is very attentive. He’s a pleasure to listen to.
Well his a coach so he should be
@@justvibing2497 Most coaches aren’t thinking about all of those things.
Im going for Errol Spence Jr. Its gon be a good fight. Both fighters good. Can't wait to see it. Whoever wins they both are good. Respect to both
I got Bud for the W.
Im taking spence because hes a dog. This is a 50 50 fight
I was never anxious about this one coz I actually like, love and support both these excellent craftsmen! Why can’t we have both?!..I asked myself! But that was the romantic in me! Now after realizing that this is about supremacy and legacy! I’ll settle for EJ coz of their styles! EJs defense is his offense! Man down let’s go smoke some bud lol! Sorry Bud 🫶🏽😂😂🥂
I like both fighters. Hate one is probably gonna lose. Whoever loses, that shit is gonna sting for them😬
WHY DO THEY ALWAYS MENTION THE CAR ACCOUNT BUT NEVER BUD GETTING SHOT IN THE HEAD?
Because one happened over a decade ago and one happened just a few years ago and seems to show affects
I love that he said that buds strength is underrated. Smartest observation I’ve heard these last few months
Virgil with that snac hat on I knew he was gone hate on Errol 🙌✅
Could you time stamp the hate remarks for me?
@@terrancespencer77from the moment of praising Crawford, it’s done without saying it out loud on their interviews
Good luck to both men ! I’ve been waiting for this one for a while and just really want to enjoy it either way it turns out because I’ve enjoyed watching both of them for years 👍
This Fight Has the Same Hype As spence Vs Mikey Garcia. THIS FIGHT WILL HAVE THE SAME RESULTS AS SPENCE VS MIKEY GARCIA !!!
Listening to him speak and break it down is poetic
Virgil said “instincts” might eventually become a factor in this fight. Tedy Atlas said he favored Bud in this fight because he had something that you can’t teach and that was that special“fighter instinct” that Crawford possesses. We shall see on fight night.
Do you think Spence lacks the fighter instinct?
@@meshlaw5757 Tedy Atlas was talking about a “different” type of instinct. One that very few fighters that he has personally seen possesses.
Spence can't b just straight fwd.gotta b light footed some times
@@generale3056You can tell when Crawford gets mad in the ring. He wants his get back then some. I think he’s a better finisher when he has opponent hurt too. Erro is the heavier puncher though but I don’t think his footwork will be enough to deal with Crawford.
😊
Virgil had nothing good to say about errol.....He will see fight night what he's all about😂....man down
On Paper U Say 50/50 But Itz Gonna Be A Walk In Da Park !!! MAN DOWN ALL DAY 💪🏿
Errol ass is grass boy stop it 🤫
Man Down??? Nah! Man Be Getting Decisions. He didn't stop LITTLE Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, or Shawn Porter.
@@brotherwiljames1784 We Ain't Talking Abt Those Other Guys U Named We Beat Them Already !!! We Talkin Abt Bud !!! Once Again It's Gonna Be A Stroll In Da Park Man Down All Effing Day !!!
@@darrellbiggeegalloway5274 Lol
Errol's gaps getting exploited all night long
Virgil is talking like Errol only fights one way. He doesn’t only grind. That’s just where he does most of his damage. He’s shown that he doesn’t just have one style. He beat up both guys in this video differently.
If 95 percent of your fights you fight one way, that's how you fight. If he's allowed to fight that way that what he will do thats his style. Only time he switches is when the boxer makes him switch.
@@voiceofalabamaexactly
exactly bro, these dudes don't understand the VERY basic concept that the opponent has to MAKE Errol do something different (nobody has so far)......why would he show a new wrinkle when he doesn't have to and I can just walk you down and beat on you??? Only time he did something different was when the chatter pre-fight was disrespectful so he said fine, "I'll beat you at what you say you do better than me"......simple 🤷🏿♂️😒
@@jayo208what’s weirder is that you commenters and nobodies keep telling boxers and trainers that you know more about the sport than they do wtf are you talkkmg about lol
@@Biglo6221 nobody’s* sir!!!! And how do u know we never boxed or trained people????
I'd like to the entire interview! Whoa! Great panel!!! 🔥💯👍🏾👍🏾
The only way for Spence to win this fight is not to get knocked out and win by decision. My fearless forecast? Bud by tko in 10 rounds
I respect Virgils analysis
I've rarely seen a Virgil Hunter fighter win a Big fight. He's been on the losing end but talks better than his resume.
Do you think he has more knowledge than the average person about the sport of boxing or no? Trainers provide the gameplan, not their job to execute it.
outside of Dre, can't think of any that won a big fight
When you raise up and develop Andre Ward, you can talk all you want.
@beevee2312 Then how do you explain why all the rest of Bomac's fighters are ass outside of Bud?
Ward and Bud would've been special regardless of the trainer. Derrick James is the only coach that showed that he can build/develop a fighter from the beginning and improve an existing fighter effectively.
@@jayo208and Dre was naturally talented lol
Has anybody noticed that all of the positive breakdowns lean towards Crawford and all the negative breakdowns are towards Spence??? Could they be bias??? #justsayin #Spence4theWin
He ain't gone stop errol from doing a thing he struggled against bums went 12 rounds with Bena who had one leg,errol wouldn't atruggle against anyone Crawford struggled against, it's gone be a murder july 29th🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love Virgil. Such a great boxing mind.
In a time when fighters find ways not to fight each other. Spence and Crawford found a way to make it happen. This fight will determine the best fighter or fighters alive today. Great for the sport of boxing.
Why everyone still doubting Errol 😭😭🤣
If you watch enough fights, you begin to see patterns, things become more predictable. I don't know if this helps.
@@olisa633a bunch of gibberish
@@tfonn1582 My opinion. Been right more than a few times. Will win a lot of money when Crawford knocks out your pick.
@@olisa633 did i say i picked errol?? or did you just assume that because my comment triggered you. i also put money up for crawford. i was just pointing out that you spoke a bunch of nothing.
@@tfonn1582 Dude, I don't get triggered by comments people leave on UA-cam, as long as they are not directed at me. Clearly, you don't observe the same code. Having said that,, what in my comment was gibberish ( do you know the meaning of the word)? I'm no boxing aficionado, but I've seen hundreds of fights. I can pretty much guess how each boxer would behave in a match up. And based on that, I make predictions and or bets. If my use of the word, pattern, is too simple for your elevated mind, say so, Professor. However, if you insist.on describing it as gibberish, then your comprehension is even worse than mine. Have a good night!
Virgill is basically talking and talking and talking and he ends up saying: I know alot of shit bu i can only predcit the winner 10 seconds before the endof the 12th round. WTF!
Could listen to Virgil forever.
Virgil literally broke down how Budd won!
I’m tired of this narrative that these fighters are beat down before Crawford gets them.
It was made to diminish his stature. Deep down people know bud is legit. They just don’t wanna say it💯
@@eastdamo5936 Bud being legit doesn't change the fact that he fought inferior versions of most of his opponents at 147.
I've been saying for years that Bud's core strength is way underrated and if you know you know because of the knockouts that he gets make you scratch your head like how!? But grappling activates muscles that most boxers will never use and it's like bumping into a brick wall in the ring at times because he has leverage and balance when he shouldn't ❤️💪💯
Amir Khan ain't Errol Spence
@@moekrinkle5771 not the point
@@famousinfamous2951 I like both fighters and I hate that one has to lose but it sounds like VH was describing Anatoly when he talked about Bud's core strength.
That nigga can deadlift a little over 400 lbs and throw a football 60 yards. P4P one of the strongest fighters in the sport smh
@moe it should be Erroll Spence ain't Amir Khan. Not the other way round. The way you worded it makes it sound like Khan is better than Spence, not the other way around.
I got Errol Spence jr that man tough as nails strong as aye ox 🐂 we 💨 smoking on Bud July 29th
Hi IQ for the Science. Virgil is a Goat of trainers. It sounded to me that He is leaning toward Bud but don't wanna count out Spence. One thing he hit on that I know people don't know is that Bud is stronger than he looks. And Sean and Brooks can attest to that, But won't say it loud.
So is Errol bro and they both can attest to this as well. The first thing most fighters speak on with Errol is how strong he is.🤷🏾♂️
Should have spread the questions around to the others. It seemed awkward with the panel sitting there, not playing a role and looking pensive about what was being said. A wasted opportunity to only focus all the questions at Virgil. These interviews need to be a bit more professional. Don't you ever watch the news and observe panel discussions? Everyone get to make a remark to questions
This video was edited to show only Virgil's responses. In all likelihood, the questions were spread more equitably in the actual interview.
I like his analysis
Well said
Awesome interview from Legendary Coach Hunter & Keisha Coles Dad !!😊
Damn Vergil looks good man he looks younger maybe it’s the goatee but even his skin looks healthy not that he looked bad before but looks like he been in the gym love listening to VH breakdown key assessments.
Nah he looks younger and like he lost weight
Coach Virgil is the Yoda of boxing
I have never seen a boxer that take the basic of boxing like I seen in Spence. There is nothing special about Spence, but what make him good is the perfection of the basic skill.
The greats never get tired of the BASICS that's what makes them special
Errol is much more than a "grind it out" type of fighter. You don't become a U.S Olympian not being able to box, you don't give Floyd Mayweather a black eye and not know how to box. Crawford is in for a surprise if he believes Errol is one dimensional. Man Down 🤠🇨🇱🦈
Crawford is too skilful for Spence.
virgil looked different because of the facial hair
And no glasses and you can’t see bald head
i love that closet shawn porter! hard work and dedication!
Virgil was Derrick James before Derrick James …
Facts!!!
We just have to see these dudes know the fighters and trainers. They know Wisdom is different than knowledge.
Also didn’t recognize Virgil
It's really common sense. Who will be able to make better adjustments during the fight? That will be the winner. Virgil is a good trainer, but the greats like Eddie Futch, Georgie Benton, and Manny Steward will be watching from heaven. I wish I could get their commentary.
If Spence just grinds Crawford down, he’s a damn legend.
But if Crawford wins, he will become one of the most decorated boxers ever. Undisputed in 2 divisions and a champ on another? That’s getting pretty good
Awesome insight
Kelbrook I remember the Browne you got from Errol
Bud is great. Technical and flashy. But people overrate his switching. He mostly fights southpaw. It’s not like he’s constantly switching every other minute. And people underrated just how varied and talented that Errol is. People get so enamored with him just being a pressure fighter who seeks and destroy they miss the nuance. Even people like these pros who should know better. I respect Virgil. But he is talking about how that grinding style breaks down with time. So does the athletic and sharp style. Hell they all break down with time and punishment accumulated over a career. But neither of them are at that point yet. I would love for people to look beyond the surface narratives of whom these fighters are. Especially in Errol’s case. They compliment dude in one breath and act like he’s a one trick pony in the other.
Nah no overrate his switching you just underrated. Southpaw he got more pop, but hits harder. When he switch to his regular stance, he doesn't get hit at all barely
Nice assessment. Good point well taken.
Stop it he constantly switched vs Khan goof nigga. He does it when he wants to
@@justvibing2497 I didn’t underrate anything. You are doing that typical thing where people read to reply instead of understanding. He mostly fights in southpaw. He doesn’t switch nearly as much as people act like he does. It’s not this super consistent thing he does every other minute. He starts out as orthodox, gets his reads, definitely gets touch some, and then he switches to southpaw and he may switch a few more times for the rest of the whole fight….maybe? That’s not my opinion. That’s a fact. His fights are free to watch. He literally does that exact same pattern in almost all of his fights. Underrating would be me saying he’s bad at it which I didn’t. I said he it’s overrated because he doesn’t do it as nearly as frequently round to round as people act like he does. Savvy?
@@niecolesparham3880 Thank you.
Big up Kell Brook!! Watching Prime GGG take his soul was pretty sad though. Brook definitely shouldn't have took that fight at last minute. Eddie Hearn must've offered him mad $$$. But pre-GGG, (judging of how Brook did vs Porter), Spence vs Brook would've been a real close fight
Kell was a mandatory challenger against pacman when he was 23 in 2010, he didn't take the fight, he avoided timothy bradley, he avoided garcia, thurman liam smith eubank jr and went for triple g and it went downhill after that.
@@tauseefp23 1. Brook avoided Bradley, Thurman, or Garcia when they were champs?? Unlikely. He would've fought and whooped them easy.
2. Liam Smith Eubank Jr and GGG aren't 147. GGG and Eubank were 160. The idea that you think Brook could've avoided them is funny and shows you have no idea wtf youre talking about lol
3. Did Mayweather avoid GGG too?
Errol Spence Jr is going to beat Terence Crawford so easy, he wont get the credit for it. 23 more days y'all will see
Nah, Bud will destroy Spence and make it look easy. I think Spence’s team will throw in the towel to save him.
Ain’t no way in hell Spence make it to the 12th round 😂😂😂

Virgil a 🐐 trainer
came back to watch this after the fight and Virgil called this to a T.
Dizzaamm... Ive been following boxing for over 50 yrs and ive never heard a boxer, analyst or trainer so expertly articulate all the major points of the fight but also made reference to the small nuances that most casual fans overlook .Yall are right. I felt like i was in an advanced class of boxing taught by a preeminent PHD.
What makes this fight for me the most anticipated fight since Tyson/Holyfield is we have TWO DOGS in the ring and i dont see either backing down or changing their style for this fight. As a true boxing fan i really like them both but i just feel the deep rounds of this fight will really test BUD who i feel has never really been tested on this level.
Virgil don’t kno shit bout Errol 😅
But you do right
U gt damn right… I’m from Dallas n kno Errol personally.. Virgil sounds stupid talmbout dat Grind it out style will go away
@@desirayking4899 sure you do
Having to prepare glass jaw Amir Kahn for anybody is a tough job.
If you've never been in there or been there, how can you TRULY know. Great opinion and points.
Virgil really knows his shit much respect
Kell thinking damm i wish he was my trainer
Who is here after the fight...
I think everyone is forgetting that Spence hasnt shown all his skills yet. Even Floyd had trouble with him.
Because he’s way bigger than Floyd. 147 is too easy for him because he’s too big (pause) anybody Spence has beat , I can beat 👌🏾
@@FeR-kt1jt Yeah ok 🥱
@@mufc7753 I’ll start with tappin yo chin . I still catch fades while you slave at a 9-5 🥱 get yo fades up harmless ass boy
Bs .the man been 147 his whole career we seen it Porter drug his ass to deep water and you talking about we ain't seen all his skills yet .
Sparring is sparring .you don't show everything in sparring. Floyd would pick Erol apart in a real fight he to damn slow for Floyd and Bud
He's basically saying spence will get stopped
And he did get stopped viciously
All in on Crawford!
Coach Bread had the 💎 y’all need to drop his part with his own title
Coach a Guru🤔💪🏽💯
Watching all access now , I feel like all concerns about the effects of the accident on his body is meh now . He clearly takes good care of his body tbh
Why do people act as if Errol can’t box? I think y’all are severely underestimating Errol’s boxing ability and overhyping Crawford.
I see a lot of people selecting Bud for this fight. But Crawford hasn't fought anyone like Spence, that he will have to fight the full 12 rds. He analyzed but is a little biased. We shall see. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a draw.
Virgil have must not have seen too many of Errol’s fights
Much respect Virgil
This must be the Terrence crawford channel
They just being honest
"And Kell, how do you see the two competitors?"
"Well I think they're both really cute and they both got lovely buns. Yeah I like em' both."
Damn. Shout out to these warriors for putting pen to paper and making this fight happen! It's incredible that these people are the best specimen of welterweights in the world and they chose to lay it on the line and bet with that 0.
As it should be. Mayweather made everyone scared to lose their 0.
Now that the fight has happened and we saw Spence and how he performed Virgil’s words mean so much now. Virgil was pretty spot on.
Errol’s gonna win simple as that.
That was kinda left field. Reporter: Virgil if you were training Errol Spence what will be your strategy. Virgil Hunter: TBH Canelo ruined Amir Khan 😂😂😂
Because anything he could've said about the Khan preparation would've been of little use to the conversation, because all the work was basically set on getting Khan fit, and trying to navigate him on fight night
To be fair, the interviewer did ask Virgil about how he prepared Amir Khan for Terence Crawford.
Kell's face when the penny dropped...damn why weren't you my trainer for the last 4 fights 😮
I thought the same thing.
Virgil is a genius. He saw all these factors coming into play
His corner work with andre ward was class ali got up ,Leonard got up, u got up
Dang Virgil’s intelligence in boxing is so top tier
Virgil sounds like he’s indirectly picking Crawford. He question’s more about Spence well-being. I pray none of these excuses come up though after the fight.
It's not excuses, it's the backdrop to the fight. Spence is known to have struggled with weight- making for a long time, although he claims to be more disciplined these days. The crash IS a big factor. No-one walks away from a crash like that quite the same. He was likely knocked out and definitely lost several teeth and does seem to talk with more of a slurred voice these days. he claims it's his dental bridge, but who knows.
@@abraxis20 I respect that 👍🏽
Bread man sounded like he wants tot say Bud as well but doesn’t want to downplay Spence. Brook and Porter also chose Bud in prior interviews
@@SilverLake401 You peeped that too. 👍Spence fans won’t see it…but it’s just reality.
@@bcraftin7846 Bud’s the favorite for a reason. The world will witness greatness July 29th 💯
Khan was never the same after Breidis Prescott fight, the other losses are only losses, Virgil Hunter is a crybaby and got lucky to train Andre Ward.
I thought that was Freddie Gibbs😂
Virgil made a reference to Bernard Hopkin's style adjustments over his career. FYI, that was when he said "B Hop".
He admitted that Amir khan wasn’t in shape when he fought Crawford! 😂😂😂 Bud been gettting it easy bud whole career. July 29th is coming we going to see what Crawford is made of.
I hear Virgil break down fights like this and wonder why he’s not have more world champions. He’s so articulate and intelligent
You can train a fighter for years but the man said it best. At some point in a fight the fighter's will pick how they will fight and the pace of the fight. Train as you may but it comes down to those guys in the ring.
Dudes always with this narrative about spence being bigger, have we ever seen the likes of Sugar Ray Leonard? Dude literally was the smallest of all the 4 kings, yet he beat all of them. Not only that, Sugar Ray moved up to middleweight and beat Hagler. Size don't matter, Heart matters. Ask Goliath how his size worked out against David. Crawford has the heart of a Lion. 💪🏿
Till he gets hit by a terminator
Good assessment by mr hunter but the same thing applies to when a fighter depends on athletic ability
I approve 👌🏾💯
I noticed one of the trainers spoke about “sparring partners “ and Spence wins that because he Spars the Charlo twins or one of em 🤷🏾♂️ idk but moral of the story is Crawford ain’t sparring nobody close to the pressure of Spence and i don’t think there is no one similar except for Benavidez 💯
