Vergil is a bad ass for pursuing this fight btw.

Hell Yes! This is one hell of a fight Stylistically could be similar to Stanionis vs Butaev which was a WAR

Respect to GBP for going through with it, I had my doubts they would make this fight and would instead maybe take Vergil the WBO Route

Will Stanionis go through with it? Will PBC let him cross the street so to speak?

Stanionis is getting 75 percent of it!? Because he has a fvkcing regular belt!? That's fvkcing bullshlt. Why did Golden boy even bid?

I think so. I doubt they want Spence-Stanionis because it doesn't sell well and none of the bigger names like Thurman or Ugas have much reason to fight him.

Probably because they can put in on in Texas and make a good buck off of it. Ridiculous that stanionis gets 75 percent though. Should be 60/40.

Vergil is stomping him out. Mean Machine is better than Stanionis. Ortiz will be upgraded to WBA champ fighting Stionis. Spence will upgraded to IBF champion fighting a Karen. The pBC guy need all the help they can get.
