If money & age wasn't part of the equation I'm sure he would. But this rematch is probably a $20M-25M check & how many cats are turning that down? And if he took a year off he'll be almost 35 by the time he fights again & boxing isn't very forgiving with age in non-HW divisions. This fight is likely his last big super fight type payday, esp if he loses the rematch, so $$$-wise the move is take the rematch.
I mean, people were shocked how easily Crawford dispatched Spence, so much so that the so called 50-50, "superfight," turned out to be a disappointing dud.
Good luck trying to get the casuals to spend almost another 100$ on Crawford-Spence 2.Eff Pandas likes this.

That's pretty optimistic of you but do you really think a Crawford-Spence rematch can generate those types of numbers when the first fight was such a foregone conclusion?

spence after crawford looked like cotto after pacquiao was done with him.
this rematch would be like if pacquiao never fought margarito and instead took an immediate rematch against cotto at 154 after their first fight.
it's possible there may be less knockdowns, but crawford would still hurt him or worse, beat spence so bad, that he would probably never win another world title after, and would be a walking corpse for anybody there.
spence should've taken a tune up at 154 like a thurman or something.
it will be difficult for spence to enter the hall of fame after this. bradley barely made it in and yet, he still has a better record than spence.

I reckon Spence makes the HOF though- the standards aren’t that high these days.
