    Except that Spence was on video multiple times prior to the fight saying he was struggling to make 147.

    Prograis, at no point, said he was struggling to make any kind of weight. In fact he actually looked fantastic physically, he just had a ****** gameplan of sitting back instead of going forward. Like Keef against Manny.

        Spence and Derrick James said the weight wasn't the issue, so I'm gonna take their word for it!

          Well, if it wasn't the issue, then why did Spence ask for the rematch at 154?

          "At The End Of The Day", you need to recognize when people are saving face.

            At the end of the day, Spence got his azz handed to him! I do hope Crawford grants him his wishes, and I'm worried we haven't gotten any word on that agreement yet! I t would be real petty on Crawford's part, not to oblige him, but maybe he doesn't want Spence now, and has something in the works for Canelo in May???

              Why are you worried?

              Better yet, why are you surprised?

              The guy called out lightweights and super middleweights while other welterweights were calling him out - and then verbally refused to fight them, claiming he was going to fight Spence "in December" (his words).

              NSB didn't want the rematch - fine, I said, fight Boots. NSB and BoMac said "Boots brings nothing to the table".

              Crawford gets stripped for ducking the interim, Boots says, "come get yo belt back" (He now brings something to the table) - and Crawford still ducks it.

              Ducks the chance to do what no other fighter in history has done, which is to be a 2x undisputed welterweight champion in the 4-belt era, and refuses?

              Then NSB criticizes the rematch clause - which means you should have wanted Crawford to fight Boots. But you don't want that either.

              Like Boots said, "that **** you pullin see thru".

                I feel so badly for Boots! He's in No Man's Land right now! I hope he signs with PBC, because I think life would be so much easier for him after that! He's probably not getting Stanionis, Thurman, Crawford, Spence, or Tszyu, without a deal!
