    No this fight would not have happened if Crawford would have acted with the same lack of class that Spence showed for 6 years toward him.

    By Crawford ignoring the insults and verbal attacks on his resume, coach, where he was from, and former promoter, he showed more class than all of the PBC and Mayweather Promotions affiliates combined.

    Crawford, by holding on to his WBO belt, and BLK Prime putting more money on the table behind the scenes made this fight happen.

    Spence will be remembered for being a unified welter weight champion for a little while longer, until the chickens come home to roost, and the 'Truth' is told that he was always a weight bully in that division up until the time that Crawford exposed him, and showed that he was really not that guy, that he was built up to be.

    The Bud black-ball Show, will continue with Jermell Charlo now still making excuses and cracks about Bud's age, this that and another, but HE will not be able to bring up, "Who has he fought?" anymore.
    Bro- Haymon appears to have waited until Bud left TR. Bud re-signed with TR of his own free will. That is on him.

    This is the exact same business practice Bob and TR used against Haney at LW.

    Bud wasnt black balled in any way.

      What is wrong with you? You seem like a sycophantic fanboy who feels more invested in rivalry of your idol than the directly involved fighter. Crawford gave Spence credit for putting more effort to make the fight happen and you are talking as if you have a personal issue with him. Crawford nor Spence knows of your existence. Get a life!

      All fighters who step in the ring to fight while putting their lives at risk deserve some respect from armchair warriors like you.

        I'm sure he would rather watch them pbc welterweights beat each other up then take the remains. Ultimately what happened.
        Lots of "Interim Champs" with 10+yrs of subscription posted when the fight fell through negotiations, after it was announced, and after Buds PPV. All tend to be pro PBC/Spence too.

        Kinda weird.

            What did Terence cave on? The venue?

            Errol capitulated to everything Bud wanted. That's why the fight took place. Haymon and company were ready to move on after the last round of failed negotiations.

              All the reason more for them to run it back at 154 to close the chapter

                  Props to both men for putting egos aside and realizing that both they and boxing needed this fight.

                      people are acting as if they fought for free to make it happen lol, i'd have gone in there and got the crap beat out of me for the amount that spence got paid, guess it shows how low boxing has sunk that people are doing cartwheels that the two best fighters in the division fought each other, like what happens in UFC all the time
