After the total dismantling of Errol Spence Jr., Terence “Bud” Crawford is left in the ring, his gloves itching for the next bout. Sure, Spence Jr. has a return ticket, a rematch clause in his pocket, but the savage beatdown he received means some serious recovery time before he’s ready to go at it again with Crawford.

Now the boxing world is asking: Who’s up next for a fight with Bud Crawford? BetOnline has stirred up the scene, placing their bets on the possible contenders. Leading the pack is Jaron “Boots” Ennis, with Jermell Charlo nipping at his heels. Let’s not forget Spence Jr., who despite his recent defeat, is still very much in the running.
