    for sure Mark,

    I’m saying for the business perspective. He has a lot of bargaining power at the moment.

    If i couldn't read i wouldn't be able to reply ,c'mon don't be silly


    I've listed Spences excuses

    And sure Old Bob plain and simple don't wanna pay too much, but that's down to his own company policy ,not so much Crawford's

    No agenda here either ,just calling it as i personally see it

    An sure you haven't actually wrote Spence draws more than Canelo but the concept of the thread appears to be to indicate that he does

    No it doesn't. I'm to the point. If that's what I felt, I would have wrote that. I saw no excuses u wrote. Maybe your opinion in which u are entitled too. However, u are wrong. Spence has lived up to his words on fighting the best. U would have something to stand on if he left the division without fighting Crawford. Clearly not the case. He said he's going for undisputed and he is on pace with that. Crawford will be his last fight at WW which he said already. Spence vs Ugas is his next fight. Who ill Crawford fight next? has a chance to fight Thurman or Porter, but he's not confident fighting them because if he lose to either, he loses his chance.

    I don't know how much money the tickets brought in, but there were over 16,000 at Jerry's Death Star.

    Dec 6, 2020 — DeSoto's Errol Spence Jr., the best welterweight in boxing, defended his IBF and WBC titles with a unanimous 12-round decision over Danny Garcia on Saturday night at AT&T Stadium. The 16,102 in attendance cheered proudly as Spence (27-0) dominated Garcia (36-3) with a sharp jab and hard combinations to the body.

    Couldn’t care less was just pointing out you claiming one is bigger than the other like he’s bigger than Canelo. When in fact they both had limited tickets and Canelo had less to sell.
    Something your statements failed to mention.

    Canelo would destroy Spence so we know Spence ain’t taking that fight anytime soon. He’s fighting guys 20 pounds heavier than him.

    I’m no major Crawford fan but I’ve never seen such a hard fan boy of Spence. Arum literally just paid Kell Brook $3m for the same fight yet your saying he wouldn’t pay $1m for the Thurman or Spence fight.

    kids like you make me laugh. Calm down if there’s money in the fight it will happen

    Read my previous posts

    I noted the excuses Spence comes out with

    Im sure you have heard them before

    Its my opinion and the above is yours

    Opinons as you say, not fact

    You are elaborating as much as i am based on words said by the fighters

    I can't 100% be wrong as you claim as you dont really know any of the fighters true intentions, neither do i

    I think Spence is avoiding that fight, i dont care what anyone says

    If they fight soon ill hold my hand up
    Im like that

    I dont think he is scared, not at all, but something is stoping him making the fight
    Could be financial, or Uncle Al giving advice

    The best thing that can happen to Spence (or Crawford) is losing to Pacman or Canelo.

    When Spence (or Crawford) is compared to Pacman or Canelo, Floyd legacy is on the line...meaning he will catch an L, we can be so sure because so far Floyd proved himself to be #2 in boxing history when it comes to defending his legacy outside the ring.

    Spence isn`t that fundamentally sound and is easier to hit, he`s very basic, 1-2 over and over, his body attack is pretty good but Bud has more punch variety and lands more counters,Spence is just a big, strong pressure fighter and I say strong instead of powerful because he doesn`t punch his whole weight.

    Canelo picks his opponents well but Smith wasn't seen as the weakest link at 168 by hardly anyone. You claim he should have fought plant but I read a post on here today calling Plant a cherry pick saying he should fight Benavidez. You guys are all over the place.

    You couldn’t say that because wilders numbers are dreadful and peaked when he faced fury, and iam not even close to being a fury fan, he’s probably the best out there but he’s a cheat.
    But no one can say that wilder has ever brought numbers, he is irrelevant now anyway he’s embarrassed himself and the sport, he’s just a Joseph Parker now

    I don’t know or really care to be honest and I don’t even know where I would find them lol, it’s probably more telling that you could hear the support for fury audibly, wilder was a fraud and got found out, and he’s made himself look like an absolute joke with his excuses now he’s irrelevant. Fury got away with having levels of nandrolone in his system that weren’t possible to have from eating uncastrated wild boar but because of the incompetence of ukad and their lack of funds to take it to court he got off with it. Regardless of these issues it’s just ridiculous to say that wilder has a following that compares to fury and to say that if fury wilder sold out Wembley there’s even a possibility that someone could say that wilder sold out Wembley is just ridiculous.

    I guess u haven't been on here to see people bashing Canelo for picking Smith. Smith was the weakest 168 champ!

    Your simply repeating what u heard, cause if u familiar with Spence, u would know other fighters also call him fundamentally sound. He's not just a come forward fighter. He's proven that against with both Garcia fighters. Spence is not easy to hit. He block and pick off a lot of those shots. Crawford gets touched often by lesser caliber fighters.
