    Spence must fight at 160 and 168 to be ATG

    Spence is a huge welterweight, he has been at 147 the whole career.

    Thinking you are something because you beat Porter and ex 140 guy Danny Garcia is a joke. And now he will challenge ex flyweight an maybe he even loses the fight, lol.

    Man up and fight middleweights if you want some legacy.

      Spence doesn't have a real avenue to ATG status. Dude is 30 years old and still hasnt become "the guy" in his lone weight class. Jermell would beat Eera and he's far too small to be effective at 160 or 168.

      Spence's best skill is cutting weight and hes among the best at it

        This is just like the guy that years ago said Canelo would never fight Callum Smith or Saunders.

        Fast forward and I expose him, it's like "yeah but not impressed".

        Same deal here. You're not fooling anyone. You'll never give Spence credit.

          Spence wont be an ATG. His career will consist of Porter, Danny and 42 yr old Pacquiao. Along with perhaps some B-tier’s at 154, but it won;t be someone like Jermell. Already said they wont fight each other.

          The truth is guys can’t move up much (successfully) after 30. The fact he’s still at 147 at 31 suggests that’s his best weight.

              Who gives a fcuk. He’s a guy trying to make a living. Does everyone have to be an all time great? I’d rather be all time paid and he seems to be doing well for himself.

                Dude is clearly a Spence hater. He's trying to degrade Spence's accomplishments so much, that he's saying a bunch of nonsense. Danny Garcia had multiple belts at 140, he beat a prime ruthless Matthysse, a prime Khan, KO'd (though he was old) Erik Morales, beat prime Lamont Peterson, etc. Dude fought better fighters at 140 than TC did to get undisputed. Shawn Porter has fought everyone, besides punch and hold Kell Brook, to a 115-113, 116-112 kind of fight, with every round being close as hell. And describing Pacquiao as just an ex Flyweight goes to show just how ridiculous your way of thinking is. Saying Pacman is old, makes more sense than saying he's just an ex flyweight. FYI, what Middleweights could Spence beat. He's too big for WW, and too small for SWW. You want this man to go up two weight classes and get Kell Brooked, JakeTheBoxer is a troll. Good day sir.

                  Spence walks around in the 170's, so I do think he COULD make noise at 154 and at least from skill, at 160. But he's not going to fight the Charlos. So what's the point?


                  I just think Spence should move up if and when HE feels like doing it, not based on keyboard warriors and their empty threats.

                  The only reason it's even a thing is that every single welterweight so far that has been willing to book a fight against Spence has failed...and people are frustrated that Crawford refuses to accept B-Side. Meanwhile, they're desperate to see Spence lose and don't see anyone else with even a chance, but they refuse to acknowledge this man's talent.

                  So they discredit Manny Pacquiao, the guy who took Keef's "0" and his belt.

                  I know the game. It's getting old.

                    The only problem I have with that is that he started his professional career at age 22. Time is running out because now he is 31. He can jump up from weight class to weight class and win a title here and there. What held him back was that for years he was being avoided by the bigger names in the welterweight division and now he won't vacate it until he at least gets a chance of becoming the undisputed welterweight champion of the world.
