    I...don't understand, but okay. This won't answer the question I have about Spence's chin, but it will show me what level Bradley and Spence are both currently at. This is a good match up but the timing is strange. I suppose with Brook's recover this is better than waiting though.

    Or alternatively, I wonder if al haymon has sacrificed amir khan in making the Brook fight so the IBF belt becomes vacant.

    How can the WBA order a fight between two fighters who don't even have one of the 20 WBA belts out there??

    My bad it's the WBC not the WBA, nevertheless the statement still stands, Tim Bradley is only ever interested in Top ranks belt (WBO) and Spence is still chasing Brook like Wiley Coyote with the road runner.

    Wouldn't mind seeing it regardless of who ordered it.

    This WBC Christmas party is getting out of hand, it has been going on for days, they must be close to drinking themselves sober by now.

    They made Vitali "Eternal Champion" whatever that means,

    Then have plans for a 4 man tournament at 160 with the winner getting a mandatory spot,

    And now they are ordering Spence Jr and Bradley.


    Can't they just do the usual office Christmas party at the WBC?

    You know the standard office gig, A couple of arguments that stemmed from somembody "stealing" a stapler and somebody else never buying office coffee, two very quiet office weirdos bumping uglies in a storeroom after necking a bottle of vodka between them, one of the older women letting their hair down (drinking like a fish) and that ends in vomit everywhere and the Boss ends the night in tears because their marriage is falling apart and they feel like nobody in the office appreciates them even though they have sacrificed their personal time and happiness for the firm, well actually they missed their daughters 8th birthday by staying late and fixing people mistakes.

    Bang, Merry Christmas

    This is actually a good fight
    The biggest test for Spence as Bradley is a good fighter. He just lacks that pop

    They won't call it until Feb as that's when Brooks medical extension runs out.

    If brook v Khan goes ahead that will be confirmed before mid February.

    Well this is one matchup I didn't see coming up. So much has been discussed about Spence vs other top names, but vs Bradley I haven't seen mentioned very often. This might be a good fight.
