    Damn what is it with everyone wanting to see this one. Look right now I favor Canelo but Spence might get porter next it will be a step up in competition for Spence . Within 1-2 years Spence will be better prepared considering he fights better opposition. I would still favor Canelo tho . Also usually I'm not a fan of fighters jumping weight classes unless. They are p4p fighters . So I'm all for this fight .if it ever happend

    Thats what Oscar wanted when he was courting Spence to fight Cotto. He was offering him a Canelo fight and the Cotto fight if he jumped ship to Golden Boy. I'm starting to think he should have taken the offer. Loyalty is cool and all but Haymon can't seem to make his B squad 147 guys fight Errol and Thurman and Pacquiao really don't want it. Spence could have lined up a short schedule with a large financial windfall. This could have been done in the span of 1 year or 1 1/2 years tops.

    Example:
    Spence vs Cotto- Great money fight
    Spence vs Canelo- Big money fight
    Spence vs Crawford- Great money fight after a going with the top star in the sport.

    Instead you got :
    Bundu
    THEN 9 MONTHS LATER Kell Brook
    THEN 8 MONTHS LATER Peterson
    Ocampo
    THEN 9 MONTHS LATER Mikey Garcia
    What kind of "advising" is Spence receiving?

    Spence controls the distance and beats him anyway he wants.

    Not gonna happen. I'd like to see Eubank vs Canelo though. Although that doesn't seem likely either.

    What are you basing this on? Beating a weather beaten Kell Brook and a tiny Lightweight? We have no idea how he'd fare at LMW, much less MW, we haven't seen him there, and its quite presumptuous to say he gets by one of them, much less all.

    Spence - Canelo more likely to happen . Oscar wants it. Spence wants it canelo is down and plus dallas tx they both would sell out

    Seriously....

    Spence hasn't beaten Crawford, Thurman, Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter at Welterweight yet, and just went the distance with a Lightweight in Mikey Garcia, and barring that eye injury, probably would have went the distance with Brook. Yeah he won by KO, good for him, not taking anything away from him, but still.. KO11.

    Now based off of a win over Brook, who hasn't looked great since, and a midget... everyone now thinks he can beat all these guys?:lol:

    Canelo Alvarez
    Gennady Golovkin
    Danny Jacobs
    Billy Joe Saunders
    Sergiy Derevyanchenko
    Demetrius Andrade
    Matt Korobov
    Maciej Sulecki
    Rob Brant
    Ryota Murata
    David Lemieux
    Jarrett Hurd
    Jermell Charlo
    Jermall Charlo
    Jaime Mungiua
    Julian Williams
    Erislandy Lara
    Brian Carlos Castano
    Tony Harrison
    Austin Trout


    Come on.:rolleyes:


    Sidenote, damn there's a lot of LMW's with first names that start with J.:lol:

    Styles makes fights. Spence would get demolished. Canelo would have folded Garcia inside 3 rounds.
