Spence Nods to Crawford as 2023's Top Fighter

Ex-welterweight champ Errol Spence has picked his top boxer for 2023, and it's none other than his arch-rival Terence Crawford:

"Not thrilled to admit it since he took me down, but Terence Crawford deserves the 'Fighter of the Year' title," Spence tweeted, though he later pulled the punch by deleting it.

ESPN and The Ring crowned Naoya Inoue 2023's top dog following his UFC title clinch.

On his part, Crawford put an early end to Spence's reign in July, snagging the welterweight title.
