    Crawford was repeatedly calling for Spence. Spence repeatedly made excuses, so how could the fight have been made?

    And Pac-Crawford didn't happen because TR was still building up Crawford. Then Pac "lost" to Horn and shortly after, left Top Rank. Bad timing.

    When Pac was at PBC, they tried to make Pac-Crawford as confirmed by everyone.

    Spence never said yes, so it never happened.

    "Feed" him to Taylor?

    Crawford would start as favourite in that fight.

    I am not being schooled by Serge at all. I don’t think Kenny Porter should have thrown in the towel but then again it’s not for me to tell a loving father and trainer when to stop the fight.

    No serious person who knows anything about boxing thinks Josh Taylor can defeat either Spence or Crawford and he will be an underdog against many other top Welterweights.

    No chucking in the towel for Olu, no matter how much of a lost cause it is. :lol:

    Why do you insist on doing this to yourself, in a public forum at that?

    I'm curious to know.

    Do what? You expect me to lie that I think Josh Taylor has a chance against or Crawford like Serge. Even Serge does not believe it.

    I'm not referring to the Josh Taylor thing. The "watch it happen" that I quoted from you was your response to Serge's post in which he stated that Spence has shown nothing to suggest that he can go to 168 or 175 and best Canelo, and that he would only buy Spence as having a shot if he beats world class operators at 154, 160 and 168. Your three word response to said post underscores your insistence that Spence will not only move up to 168 or 175, but will also beat Canelo.

    To save you from having to feign ignorance, here it is right now:

    There you guys go projecting again. Who says Spence will go up as far as 168 or 175. If this fight ever happens it’s likely to be a catch weight probably 164 pounds because Canelo will never make 160 again. Economics and star appeal of both fighters is what will the the drivers for this fight. I am pretty sure Spence does not fantasise about being Light Heevyweight Champion.
