    You've got Crawford, Spence, Pacquiao and potentially Mikey Garcia all competing in the same "appaling" division.

    They do a pretty good job of ducking up there too

    People surprised that the major fights are not made.
    It's the modern age, they simply don't fight each other.

    Deepest division in boxing. I’m just angry the two best guys have no plan to fight and the gutsiest guy is 40 years old. Spence and Crawford need to fight in 2020 or fans should boycott all of their fights. It’s criminal two prime guys at same weight aren’t even close to fighting.

    I agree with much of the OP's sentiments. All the big sharks circling each other, inevitably aging in the process. We've seen it before. We're seeing it again. It should be illegal.

    Too much thanking everyone. Too much posturing on twitter.

    I call upon the ghost of Harry Greb to haunt each man until they do what's right.

    Can’t agree there George.

    Brook is the best win between the two, then Frampton. I’ll take dominant wins over Peterson, Ocampo and Bundu over close SD wins over Kid Galahad and Lee Shelby.

    Factor in skill/attributes and Warrington is nowhere near Spence p4p.

    If they were the same size, you’d pick Warrington over Spence?

    P4P is who you fight not easy picks not to lose so you have Zero on your record.

    It’s one of many questions that people have asked since the idea of p4p began. So, same size Spence vs Warrington, who wins?
