    What`s to be made of Spence`s strange behaviour when he abruptly left at the end of Porter v Bud?

    very salty behaviour. Setting up the narrative for the fight, can't wait to see it, I'll be rooting for Crawford

    Probably thinking "WTF was that?" like most of us were when it was stopped.

    He went to his car to cry because he knows he's doomed.

    Errol knows he is a marked man and his only claim to glory was an over hyped sparring session with old man Floyd Mayweather when he was 37 when he punched him in the eye. Errol Spence ducked the living ancient boxing artifact named Manny Pacquiao and now sees that fighting Crawford will expose him for the hype job he is.

    A bad look for him , show a bit class do a interview after the fight. Promote yourself instead the narrative (and rightly so) be hes scared or petty

    Spence was living the good life. He more or less had the title of the premier welter weight in the division. He was feasting on good but beatable opponents. It's like this, in your neighborhood there is this house with this bad ass dog behind a big fence, you walk by there all the time and tease the dog cause you know he can't get out. Then one day you walk by and notice the gate is open and this bad ass dog is heading straight for it. What you gon do. You gon run like hell or fight like hell. That is the position Spence is in. I think Spence will fight but he wasn't ready this soon.

    Nope. I honestly believe Pac was gonna pull it off. The change in opponent and mini camp at the end of camp really ****ed him up.

    He was locked in on Spence up until 11 days out. The intensity was impossible to match for Ugas. It's like you're 5 seconds away from banging your dream chick only to be subbed with an okay chick.

    The realisation that you're a half way crook.

    Errol just read the text from Uncle Al that said "get out of the arena as fast as possible and do not speak Crawford's name out loud".

    Instead, he should have climbed up into the ring and called Bud out in front of the whole world.

    Honestly it seems that Spence was disgusted that Kenny pops stopped the fight for Porter when he was more than capable of continuing the fight, to make it look as though Crawford had a better performance than EJ. Whats going to be the narrative they push going into future negotiation for the fight?

    Crawford: " you couldnt stop Porter but i did, i deserve the bigger cut of the pie". If Anything just to get the fight done, should be 50/50 down the middle, anything else and we may never see the fight. But if anyone deserves the bigger cut, its definitely Spence.
