Comments Thread For: We Can Only Hope Spence Spoke 'The Truth' About Boxing Crawford Next If He Beats Ugas

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Keith Idec - ARLINGTON, Texas - A misinformed member of the media asked Errol Spence Jr. and Yordenis Ugas at their final press conference Thursday how their fight will unfold because they're both southpaws.

He won't, he's going to fight Thurman and then move up to 154. Just a prediction.

Prediction:

Spence will beat Ugas, then everyone is going to say he'll duck Crawford next. The fight with Bud gets signed, then everyone will say Crawford is going to wash him. Errol beats Crawford then everyone will say Bud got old or Spence waited him out.

He not gonna fight Keith that ship sailed thurman ducked him for years. IF he beats Ugas I see him taking out bud. They’re quite closely matched fighters but I think IF the spence that beat kell Brook is back he beats crawford in a war of attrition

Exactly!

PBC is not gonna leave in-house money at 147 on the table - and if he loses to Crawford there is no Charlo fight - lets hope Ugas wins as I do believe that a Bud-Ugas fight would happen

We know the only reason Spence is taking the fight is so he can demand something like 80-20 and say Crawford didn’t want the fight. I expect him to move up after this.

Where is Terence Crawford? What is he doing? Who represents him now? Is he going to sit still until the Fall, or will he fight b4 fighting for "Undisputed?"

"Crawford’s contract with longtime promoter Bob Arum’s Top Rank Inc. expired following his 10th-round stoppage of former IBF and WBC champ Shawn Porter on November 20 in Las Vegas."

5 months later and noone fighting to sign Crawford. He's definitely B side in negotiating an undisputed fight and Spence is reasonably entitled to 75/25 or similar split. If No Pay Cut Crawford don't want to take it, that's on him.
