Spence vs crawford early ring walks

[Loque-san]

I don't know what you guys think "run of the mill" and "mid level" are but that card you're referring to that Canelo had to wait for was the highest selling PPV UFC had that year.

This dude is crazy. This fight was the biggest UFC card of the year and had far more buzz than Canelo-Kovalev. It was indeed the highest selling UFC PPV of the year but also the highest gate of the year in a sold out MSG. They even had The Rock carrying that made up belt and Donald Trump in the building.
DAZN knew what they were doing.

Better than Canelo being pre-empted and made to look like a clown.

Of course, Dana doesn't care either way, since he watched Canelo/Plant during a UFC event.

I agree and that was a bad look for Canelo and DAZN.
That happened because the fight was finalized at the last minute because Kovalev had a fight and his opponent wouldn’t take a step aside fee. Couldn’t sign and get a venue scheduled until after and all the dates had filled up.
Plus the Canelo/Kovalev fight wasn’t a big anticipated matchup. It was just another fight on his DAZN deal to fulfill both sides.

Bud/Spence should be one of the biggest fights out there but from what I have seen it’s barely registering outside the hardcore fight fans.
