    Its funny to see posters on here trying to steer the narrative of something that we saw with our own eyes, as if Spence is avoiding Bud. Then why didn't he avoid the 3 other champions that he beat for their belts, and why didn't he avoid the better competition on his way to those belts? Why didn't he leave negotiations and fight someone on the level of Avanesyen? Even though I don't love the mandatory Thurman fight, Keith was a champion and dominant force in the division before his bouts of inactivity, he's not a fxcking Avanesyen type of fighter.

    Time and time again, the history has proven who's willing to step in with the more dangerous opponents, like coming off a broken orbital and refusing a tune up to fight Danny Garcia, while we watch this guy fight Kavaliauskas, Jose, Khan, and a washed Brook. But, the holder of 3 belts in the division is scared, man, GTFOH, the dxck holders are outta pocket, just creating their own reality like everyone doesn't have eyes.

      Anyway, I think that its a good move for Joshua and hopefully he sees improvement with the tutelage and competition of his stablemates, Jermell, Spence, and Frank Martin. If he's taught to use his size and aggression while mixing in pockets of boxing, and increases his stamina through different training techniques, I could see him giving any one trouble.

        None of Spence's wins are especially impressive, no matter how you try to spin it. Spence and Crawford both have mediocre resumes which are about equal in their mediocrity.

        If they never fight each other, chances are they will go down in boxing history as disappointments.

          If Joshua and Usyk were to fight 10 times, Joshua would probably catch him eventually with a bomb and win 1. Wouldn't matter who was training him.

            Whatever you say, reality is beautiful, try it. 3 champions for 3 belts, against 1 belt won from Jeff Horn and mid-tier opponents ever since, no spin, just facts.

              Now it’s about belts, just don’t pay attention to the details

                Pacquiao had 4 bites at Marquez trying to get a real win. Yeah, he lost all 4, but even the 4th, after 3 losses, it was a classic. Marquez 4 Pac 0. Nash out

                  I guess the same reason Derek Chisora fought Tyson Fury for a third time
