Comments Thread For: Spence-Thurman Nearly Finalized, Conditionally Approved To Take Place Above Welterweight Limit

Now if Keith gets injured, Spence is messed up! IBF will mandate he fight Boots then. Spence don’t want that work imo

Boots not ready for that, but I hope he gets his shot. Even after he loses, he'll be the best in the division after Spence moves up.

[Combat Talk Radio]

Spence is a gym rat and has never missed weight in his whole career. He makes welterweight with no problems.

That's a lie.

In the Ugas pre-fight presser:

Spence (27-0, 21 KOs) also welcomed a nutritionist to his training camp.
“I’ve been feeling strong,” he said. “My nutritionist that I added for this camp has been the missing ingredient. I was struggling to make weight, and I think that’s the reason that I haven’t gotten a stoppage in my last few fights.

“This is the first camp in a while that I haven’t put the sauna suit on. It’s been a breath of fresh air. I’m really having fun in this training camp.”

He should vacate alll those belts. Dude aint coming back 147

He will fight at 147 for Bud and undisputed, otherwise it doesn't make him much money, well, maybe Ortiz because of the Dallas connection.

I'm a moron and you idiots can't reasonably argue my facts lmfao

What facts?

[Rebelrbg]

yeah, this is it for Errol at welter. He'll definitely move up after this, which is fine with me.

Shawn Porter was right. I don't give a damn about the belts, I just want to see the fights. Crawford and Boots both should be able to meet Spence at 154 no problem. Both are physically bigger than Floyd ever was.

I don't think he's moving up yet, he still wants to be undisputed, and if they're lucky, he might stick around and beat up one of the young lions before 154.

I never wanted this fight ****** ass! I’ve always wanted Spence vs Crawford. It looks like now ESJ is about to move up in weight anyhow. Which is a very smart move since he has nothing to prove at welter anymore.

Your Post is one Big Contradiction!
You said it's a very Smart move
ESJ has nothing to prove at 147 anymore
But yet You wanted to see Spence vs Crawford ?
Spence has to defeat Bud @147 to be undisputed buddy soo it's not a smart move & he has to prove it
Smh

So, according to Spence, the fight is "April Xx", which means he's so far away from making 147 that 3 months advance notice isn't enough time. We found this out today, January 10th. But, he was ready to fight Crawford in December for all the belts? Was the kid that hit him driving an ice cream truck?

Man, if you can't even do roadwork, its not that easy to make weight, or you can do it, but it will be very unhealthy. It makes sense to gradually increase his running as his legs heal.

What does November, not December, have to do with now? Crawford ran away from negotiations in November, I'm sure both of them were already in training camp for the fight. Crawford never mentioned anything about Spence's weight, people on here are some goof bots.

Well if Spence wants to be recognized as the best welterweight in the world then he has to fight and beat Crawford, it's as simple as that.

I agree but how could he when Bud has already ducked him and has expressed very little to no interest in fighting him except for the right type of money?

Take a hint Sherlock. Crawford is no longer interested in fighting Spence; Otherwise he would have never fought David Avaneysan.

I, like all boxing fans would love nothing more than to see that fight happen but Terence only wants to fight Spence on his own terms by pricing himself out.

If that’s Crawford’s bottom line then Errol is telling him in so many words and deeds that he can go and kick rocks with that one by jumping up a weight class.

He isn”t and nor should he put his career on hold for Bud.

[Ganondorf]

Folks are giving Spence tons of shlt but I didn’t see that same energy when Bud fought David!

Its not far-fetched to assume that it is possible for Keith to actually show up for this fight and be tough.

If Keith actually can show up, a good version of Keith beats anyone on Bud’s resume IMO.
