    They're strategically avoiding each other. They both have a number of options that they can exhaust, still make money, still stay relevant and be considered the 1a and 1b of the division.

    I accused Crawford of ducking Spence but after the recent past, it looks to me like Spence is ducking Crawford. Crawford seems to be talking about Spence more than the other way around. It’s shameful both guys haven’t insisted to their promoters that this fight take place. I favor Crawford slightly but it’s probably a 50/50 fight. Two prime guys at the same weight, top talents at the weight not fighting each other is a crime. Both of their legacies will be tarnished if they never fight.

    Pac porter spence dont wanna fight. They pricing themselves out of the fight and giving excuses. If they wanted to fight they would.

    The WBO is hardly a lowly belt these days

    Spence had many excuse PRIOR to his drunk Mario Andretti act. Maybe you forgot "let the fight marinate" or "he is on the wrong side of the street." Now he has tried "70/30 or 80/20 split." The "fight will happen" is NOT Spence saying he wants to fight Crawford

    Should be an option for “Neither want the fight”.

    Talks cheap tho, neither are making actual steps to make the fight. They are both ducking each other. Both are lame.

    Spence has the better resume at 147. He can gain more leverage by beating Ugas.

    i agree, but i dont see the desire in spence that a man who wants to fight to prove that no other man can live with you in a ring at 147, would have. and i am one of spences biggest fans here, just not a fan BOY. i actually see spence stopping bud, if they ever do settle this.

    There both ass clowns who think they are more important than what they are. If there was ever a fight to split everything 50/50 its this one.

    Yes hes ducking Spence.

    Hes hiding behind Arum cause if he really wanted to fight Spence he could have left Top Rank and join PBC where all the top welters are at instead he stuck with a promoter who doesnt even like him.

    Hes ducking Porter too.
