    I didn't suggest Bud was fighting avenesyan again. I said that fight came out of nowhere, meaning just because everyone is saying Bud is fighting Charlo and Spence doesn't mean that's his next fight, it could be anyone. he might take a Thurman fight
    Told you so, Errol activated his rematch clause.

      Thurman ain’t getting anywhere near that. He only got $2.5m against Pacquiao and that’s when he had a belt and 0 to sell.

      Spence-Crawford did around 650k buys per the reports, so the rematch does what? 500k max? Meanwhile Spence has generally done around 300k buys even against lesser names like Ugas, the Thurman fight likely hits that number. It’s by far the better business move.

      Spence looking impressive up at 154 helps sell the rematch too because nobody with a brain could believe Spence has any chance in that rematch after he was utterly dominated by Crawford.
      I’m not saying the rematch is going to sell. I agree with you that people have lost interest myself included. I’m saying if I were Spence I wouldn’t care about that I have a contract for a rematch. It’s somebody else’s job to worry about trying to sell the fight.

        He doesn’t necessarily have a contract he has a contractual option. He isn’t tied to the rematch or anything like that.
