Comments Thread For: Derrick James Says Errol Spence Being Weight-Drained 'Wasn't the Issue' Against Crawford

[Roadblock]

Derrick James don't even have a clue whether the rematch happens or not.

The trainer don't have much say in who or when he just gets them ready once the promoters say its this guy on this day.

Excuses from sore losers errolsexuals

Just the type of gay **** a ****** would say. Clearly fcked in the ass by a father figure

Crawford just too good - doesn't matter what weight, whether 147 or 154. I think Errol is gone, Timmy Tszyu beats him at 154, imo.

[Combat Talk Radio]

Thats the bit I didn't understand, he contradicts what he is saying, said he wasn't then says at 154 he wont be drained and depleted.

What he’s trying to say, without saying, is that he knows Spence was drained, BUT he felt that even a drained Spence should have beaten Crawford. Which is just ego.

It's best Spence move up and on from Bud to retain what's left of his ability to generate decent $$$ for a fight. If he loses again to Bud(and he will) his credibility as a top fighter will be dropped close to journeyman level and undercard bouts. By moving up and on some people will still believe that he may have been drained and still consider him elite enough to pay for a fight

This rematch will not be a big money fight. That ship has sailed. It would be best for Crawford to mandate the fight at 147 lbs. in the hopes that Spence backs out so Bud can concentrate on other fights that will bring in more revenue and get him closer to being a four division champ.

no money since Showtime have pulled out now.. but you never know.. Amazon are trying to jump into the game now
