    I'm just glad PBC isn't making up pay $80 for Spence vs Fundora

    Spence can pull a crowd. 80k seat stadium for a comeback fight seems wild though.

    Ridiculous idea to put this in a stadium, would be surprised to see it do 20,000.

    80k seat stadium and read somewhere a claim that this is a $15 million fight.

    Little wonder Spence is suddenly keen to glove up again.

    I am looking forward to this one. I wish it was in Australia though I definitely would've attended.

    I got Tszyu in two.

    I'll be very surprised if the fight is in Texas. I'm pretty sure venue is undecided at this point with Texas, Australia & Las Vegas all still in play. Despite the reporting, Spence won't want to fight in Australia while I'm sure Tim's team won't want him to fight in Bungeye's backyard. I predict it will be in Las Vegas which both sides will accept.

    Spence would love it up on the Gold Coast he needs to stop listening to his mate Charlo telling him about the poison water in Australia.

    It would be huge down here. People are afraid of what they don't know so I'm not expecting to see him.

    Timmy's new team haven't done their jobs if it's in Texas.

    Yeah would be massive in Australia Spence would get the royal treatment as well before Tim sends him to the hospital but even there he will be ok as our health care system is one of the best in the world, Spence would get his own room with a window.

    I guess we will find out if life and Bud ruined Spence. He is past his prime and Tim isn't what many thought he would be. Should be interesting.

    If Spence beats Tszyu, he'll be an interesting addition to the SWW/JMW division. Especially with guys like Ennis, Vergil, Zayas, Kelly and so on.

    15m. Tszyu needs to beat the Albanian though. I think he will. He shoukd have just fought Spence though. Risky again imagine he missed out on the pay day again. I can't see it but things happen. Good on him for getting his pay day though.

    The fight would be massive in Australia but are never generate that type of money 15 million usa that's like 20 million Australian dollars zero chance. I think even that type of money in the United states someone who's going to take an absolute bath financially the fight is not even that big in my opinion
