Comments Thread For: Spence On Avoiding Tuneups: "It Shouldn't Take Another Fight For Me To Be Sharp and On Point"

[Roadblock]

any good trainer will tell you that sparring isn't the same as a real fight.

Not as far as timing and sharpness are concerned, this is what he is referring to here, and I don't doubt it with Errol because he is a dog, the ideology is not referring to seasoned elite fighters, but fans will apply it to the very best, and they can easily fight once a year and be on point.

Like Crawford, Spence traveled overseas to win a belt.
Unlike Crawford, Spence added two more belts while your boy Bud is fighting bums AND SITTING ON ONE BELT.
Now, I’ve fixed for you.

Do you really count beating a body bag like Ugas as something to brag about? Spence's last fight was so long ago, Joe ***** was still operating from the basement.

Do you really call beating body bags like Khan AND Brook as something to brag about?
ALSO, when Crawford fights Rocha or Broner, would you brag about those fights?

Spence doesn't want any tuneup fights or ANY fight for that matter. I've nearly forgot this dude exists in the sport at this point. Just another sitting on the shelf waiting for I don't know what at this point. Until Crawford's hair goes grey and agrees to face him?

Boxing has become so dumb at this point. Giving too much power to the fighters and or their promoters and allowing them to dictate who they choose to fight. It needs a solid ladder system that is enforced by the organizations. It says, you MUST FACE X opponent by X date or you forfeit your title(s) and move to the back of the line. The problem is there are too many of them and its become a ****show.

It takes two to tango.

Yes that is true also. Whoever you side on, the other side is waiting for grey hair. You can really read this article as though it's Crawford as well. Both decided to just sit out and not even show face in the sport at this point.

He won't be fighting Rocha or Broner. He wanted Ortiz Jr. and Boots, but both went in the WBA and IBF directions instead. Ugas is getting inducted into the IBHOF next month. You didn't hear? LOL

I’m just glad that you AGREE with me that Khan and Brook were both BODY BAGS (your words) and irrelevant when Bud fought them.
There must be a reason you ignored that fact.

If Crawford really wanted Boots or Ortiz, he would have been pretty vocal about it.
Boots is on record asking why Bud fought Kavaliauskas instead of him.

Feel free to ignore the Khan and Brook fact. Again

the promoters were never going to give him that information unless he put up his own money to promote the show (industry information I learned from Rachel Donaire which is more credible than any nsb boxing scene poster. not mentioning this in regards to you but in regards to others that may try and go sideways with this statement).

So by large, Crawford made a demand that was never going to happen. The fact that he had a fight lined up and agreed to the very moment word that negotiations hit a dead end with his baseless demand, it really goes to show he didn't operate in good faith. Spence didn't even have anything lined up either. He legitimately put everything out of the picture to get Crawford across the line and Crawford bailed to get his payday with blkPrime.

Nothing against him getting his money. But he made a demand that was never going to happen and stalled the fight for it.

This all could have been sorted if Haymon gave a guarantee to Crawford. He gave it to lesser fighters and fights. But Haymon and Spence didn't want this fight to go forward so they frustrated the situation and forced Crawford to walk the same way Fury did with Usyk. it's a tactic to manipulate the public. But no sane person falls for it.

Why wouldn't they let a fighter know what money is being spent and made? They're supposed to be kept in the dark and not know? No one from their side is allowed to know the ins and outs? What? How is that so? How does that make sense? Explain.

I gave you context because I figured you might be an adult that’s willing to engage in a debate.
Instead you turn out to be a Transgender who was clearly mölested by his dad. And a low life MoFo

You gave a deflection and a fallacy. You made a comment on Crawford not fighting opponents he should be fighting. I asked you who they were. Not once have you given me these names. Now you're engaging in ad hominem attacks. Yet you're accusing me of not being an adult?

You can't answer the question because you have no opponents to give that he should be fighting. That's why you're playing this laughable game of projection.
