      It’s great for Boxing these two champs came together and influenced their representatives to arrange the fight, hopefully other champions will do the same, I’m sick and tired of these managers and promoters, obstructing good matches from being made, due to their extravagant demands.

            Lubin beats Spence (Chuckle) want to bet ?

              Bud has been at 147 since 2018, so why is it easier for Bud to make 147 than it is for Errol? How many of u can get down to 147 lbs at age 35? Errol isn't the only one with these issues. When Errol was making all his opponents look like Rocky Dennis, nobody brought up his trouble making weight. Errol praised his nutritionist for keeping him strong and how he makes weight with no problem. Errol himself said if a car crash couldn't break him, no man could hurt him. In pre-fight press conference, Errol said he's going to show his conditioning, stamina, defense, and his ability to make adjustments. And he promised several times to make a war like the kind we saw in Leonard vs. Hearns, a throwback fight. He promised that from the 1st bell to whenever the fight ended, he would be in Bud's face. His coach even got in shape for this fight, and he said Bud will decide how long the fight goes once his bones start breaking, its all up to him. He said Bud's mama better not bring her dancing shoes. So from their own words, they seemed confident about bringing a war to Bud and breaking his will. They wouldn't have said all that, if Errol wasn't in tremendous shape. They were both hyped up, stretching, bending and twisting in the ring during the fighter introduction. They believed in their plan right up until Bud started touching Errol and then shoved him back in rd. 2, then shortly after when he dropped Errol, that's the 1st time they realized they had problems. But now after the fight, ppl say the weight was an issue? The issue was Bud. Errol just met the best boxer he ever faced, that's all there is to it
              Are you blind or just dumb AF? Hating on Spence like you lost lot of money? Spence been making weight under 150 since 2012 hello. He even went up to 156 at one point. If he dint look right to you before the fight during and after maybe your not the sharpest tool in the shed. Nah. It's on him but he was having major issues with the weight cut before the fight. Ran some hill before the fight to loose weight and drained himself. The temps in Dallas and LV are scorching. He looked dehydrated AF. I was picking Crawford for years to beat Spence hello. The Spence that showed up wasent Spence it was a Dehydrated Spence he liked guant before the fight and ppl in the wise noticed that during weight ins. He was lucky to make it in the dot. I respect him for not making excuses. I actually blame James in this case more. It's a shame it happened fight would of been closer the out come the same. Spence definitely needs to go 154, 160. I was big Crawford fan before this fight but hating on Spence and pretending the weight wasn't a issue dumb as Fucck the fact you got so many likes Priceless

                  SRL is a true all around fighter and an all time great who could make adjustments in fights. not a 1 dimensional Jared Hurd type fighter and weight bully. not sure why the comparison but ok cool

                    Derrick James got in shape for this fight, running with Errol and working out like he had a fight coming up. Not Bomac

                      U didnt read a word that I wrote. Ur reply shows that. I don't care about your weight drained theories. Errol and his coach both said camp was amazing and how bones were going to be broken. From my view, weight drained or not, his skill set was never going to be any match for Bud's skill set. And if u can't see that, then u must be dumb AF, my friend. And I also asked the question, what makes it any easier for Bud to make 147, being 35 years old, u think its easier for him because he's been at 147 for only 5 years compared to Errol's 11 years? That's a ****** way to think. If u read any of my previous posts, I explained exactly why i believed he was no match for Bud, way b4 this fight took place. So how am i mad I lost money on Errol, when I I wouldn't have bet on Errol to begin with? B4 the fight, I said this was going to look a lot like Hopkins vs. Trinidad, except a little more nasty. I like and respect Errol too, but he was going to lose anyway, weight issues or not.
