    There are some politics at play and I do think they want Spence to win this fight. If the fight is even remotely close, I don't think they're going to give the decision to Crawford.

    If Crawford doesn't stop Spence, he could get robbed in this fight.

    If it's 2 rounds either way then the fight will be called a draw and they'll be forced into a sudden deathmatch. no rounds. no timer. First one to quit or get KO'd loses.

    They should bring back 15 rounders for this one.

    Crawford might get the Barroso treatment in this fight.

    I don't think Spence gets outworked so bad it would be in the class of robbery, but I could see Vegas giving him the nod if the fight is close, yes.

    Vegas don't care man LOL Look at some of the ludicrous cards handed in & good fighters getting robbed. What happened ?? NOTHING the Commission just ignored them . I remember a poster here asking Bob Bennett if anything was being done about about Adelaide Byrds notorious 118-110 ludicrous card. He supposedly said
    "Nothing why, Adelaide is one of my best judges maybe she just had a bad night & laughed ". Theres you answer I guess

    Draw so they can make a rematch $$$$$$$. I'm worried this fight is going to look like a glorified sparring session, I want to see someone try to take it.

    You sound like Tim Bradley a conspiracy theorist.

    I could deal with Tim Bradley the headbutting machine as a boxer but as an announcer he is THE WORST. Man he is annoying. I turned off the sound in the Inoue/Fulton fight because of that guy.

    I remember that quote, no accountability as usual.

    Agreed.

    Spence has Haymon in his corner and Crawford doesn't. Plus Bud has never been one to market or sell his own fights to generate dollars.

    Decisions tend to favor the guy who makes everyone the most money.
