Anyone not that excited about Spence vs Crawford?

I want to see it, but I'm not as hyped about it. I truly believe this fight is only happening because they have exhausted their options. They have nowhere else to go. I don't care who wins, but if it's a decision, both of their ***riding fanbases will clutter this site explaining why their favorite was "robbed"

once they start promotion you'll be pumped up.

No because it doesn’t even really feel fully official, they’ve been pump faking too long. Once we get some press tours, Countdown shows, and trash talk the hype will be insane again.

I haven’t kept up with either fighter if I’m honest. This may be a situation where I will place my first bet (not a gambler) as IF this fight happens around then, I will actually have some disposable coin to throw down. Who is the safe and who is the bigger payout, I wonder? Anyone?

It just got announced and it’s not Mayweather-Pacquiao. Wait til the trash talking starts, it will gain steam. The news is like a day old.

It’s slightly lower hype than something like Canelo-Benavidez possibly being announced. But it’s still up there, it’s like at the level of Fury-Usyk hype.

It’s absolutely a top 5 matchup of 2023, definitely in terms of popularity among boxing fans, accolades of the fighters, their placement in their division and their placement in the top 10 P4P rankings.

I’m not getting too excited until it’s official.

We’ve been let down too many times by reports this fight is “agreed”.

**Aristocrat** · 05-24-2023, 05:14 PM

I agree. This fight would've been the best around 2019.

**SplitSecond** · 05-24-2023, 05:47 PM

Only fight I can think of right now that i’d be excited for is Usyk-Fury

Feels years too late. Spence is on the decline, Crawford too.

Meh

Its a hell of a fight between the best two WW in the world, how do you figure on the decline when Errol's last fight was classic Spence, a walk-up pressure fighter that takes your soul against a great talent that can take you out at any time, this fight will be big count on it.

It was hot toast a few mths ago now it's years late lol.
