    Spence even after his car crash had better wins than Vergil. He was in the top 5 P4P still.

    Undeservingly so, it's just that Americans, fighters exposed to western publications and higher weight classes are getting preferential treatment over a true all-division all-venues all-passports view. At best Spence was a P4P#9-10 type of fella.

    I’d be going with Ortiz at this point. Maybe Spence just didn’t have the tools to give Crawford issues and he still has a lot left and deals with Ortiz better and beats him and Spence isn’t finished all along? I certainly wouldn’t go with that narrative, but I can’t be 100%.

    Don’t get me wrong Vergil is a good fighter but what has he proven to be better than prime Spence?

    Spence should fight Tim Tszyu instead. That's a good fight between 2 fighters on the mend.

    Ortiz should be fighting Ennis after all the trash talking they did on Saturday.

    Tim doesn't have a belt. Vergil does.

    Sabatical jokes aside Spence has 1 loss to Terence Crawford. Hes getting some sort of title shot.

    "At best Spence was a P4P#9-10 type of fella."

    What is wrong with being the 9th or 10th best fighter P4P? Thats at worst a top 2 or top 3 guy in an amazing division.

    I hope Ortiz faces Ennis, a match against Spence doesn't excite me at all, I think Errol's career at the top level is over now.

    Ortiz does to him what Spence did to his opponents, but more brutally because he has more power.

    I wasn't talking about Vergil. Good fighter, LOTS to prove.
    Nothing wrong with a fighter being accurately ranked which Spence wasn't, due to: read my post again.

    Doesn't matter. This Virgil is definitely a better fighter than procrash Spence

    Spences name being pimped out by Uncle Al as he has no shows

    Ennis ducked Crawford and Vergil already. I would much rather Murdervaliev or Fundora at this point over Ennis tbh

    He could prove to be. But now? I’d exercise caution.
