    Spence wants to clean out the division

    Don't they both have IBF mandatories to do? I know Murtazaliev has been the mando since 2019.

    Fantastic double header if they pull it off.

    I presume he could be paid step aside fee.

    154 has some interesting matchups if they come through.
    Israil Madrimov is WBA #1
    Tim Tszyu is WBO #1
    Erickson Lubin is WBC #1
    I wonder if Charlo will defend or if he will move up to 160.

    Ugas is a really good fight for Spence. I was never really that high on Spence but I changed my mind after watching come back and beat Danny Garcia.

    Seems like a good double-header!

    I thought Castano deserved a win over Lara. I don't think I'd ever see any fighter make landing power shots on Lara look easy! Castano doesn't seem to be a big puncher, though.

    Ugas is not an easy assignment for Spence. The judges been robbing him like a St. Louis 7-11!

    It's weird that 154 is pretty good, and a few more top WWs like Spence may end up there soon enough, meanwhile 160 is a bit of a ghost town.

    I think he’s gonna stay at 154 until Spence move up and his brother go to 168. Kinda seem like that’s been PBC plan all along. Have Mell move and Errol fight for vacant 154 WBC and have Mall move up and Mell fight for the vacant 160 WBC.

    After Castano mops the floor with Jermello, he should stick around and hand Spence a second loss in the main event. And yes.... Castano beat Spence in the amateurs.

    Probably because he's a simple, effective fighter like Mike McCallum.
