I hope all the talk about Vergil fighting Bud if Vergil gets by Mo this weekend is true, but I kinda feel like its more talk than factual. I mean why would Bud even wanna fight Vergil? Its a lose lose situation for Bud.

The point clearly went over your head. Perhaps you should read my comment again.
Vergil Ortiz Doesn't Think He Can Beat Spence Now, 'But Maybe In A Year'
April 22, 2020
“As of right now, you know what? I would give anyone in the 147 division a hard fight,” Ortiz said. “I don’t care who it is. As far as me thinking that I can beat him right now, I don’t think so. But maybe in a year. I’m not gonna rush myself, like these other fighters. I’m not gonna call someone out that, you know, just for clout or anything like that. You know, I genuinely think that I can beat some of these guys.”
Vergil Ortiz Jr. is a confident, talented contender who has knocked out each of his 15 pro opponents. Even Ortiz recognizes, though, that he’s not quite ready to beat Errol Spence Jr. just yet. The 22-year-old Ortiz honestly acknowledged during a recent interview on SiriusXM’s “Ak And Barak Show” that he feels he is about a year away from being able to knock off the unbeaten IBF/WBC welterweight champion.
That was less than a year ago!Comment
