    Prefer Tsyzu vs Errol before a shot at TC. Tszyu can have one more showcase fight for the big step up.

    Canelo Crawford ? Mismatch, defense does not work the same way against a 168er. Especially against one with similar skill. Same way that Canelo could not scratch Bivol, punches had zero impact.

      Fundora is average Tim will beat him like a drum.

        Why another broken fighter, Spence is in limbo he needs a warm up fight with an average 154 guy to see whats left, he shouldn't be in the sweepstakes for an instant title fight.

        Crawford vs Tyszu is the only fight to make.

          I don't think Crawford could make 168, even if he tried. Started at 135, if I'm not mistaken. 36 years old. If Crawford was moving up like that, he should have already fought at 154 or 160.

                Errol’s only healthy options are to get back to his side of the street and turn the temperature WAY down on the big fish fryer cause Jr looking like it’s past time to stick a fork in him, he DONE…

                  Crawford vs Tszyu (if he wins) is the fight that should be aimed for.

                  Crawford physical prowess won't be enough to win a fight against a 168 pounder who rehydrates 20 pounds, he have to climb three divisions above at the tail end of his career.

                  If Errol Spence wants to fight for the title, he should take a fight or two at 154 before contending for a title. Against someone like Brian Mendoza, Castaņo or Erickson Lubin.

                    No, those matchups suck and please stop with them. Crawford is mandatory for the winner of Tszyu-Fundora. Fighting Spence means the winner drops the belt and ducks. And bringing either of them into the picture at 168 just makes it less likely to get the good fights at that division. Let's not hold up 3 separate divisions for ****** fights.

                      Where the hell did Spence crawl out of all of a sudden?

                      He wouldn’t do the rematch with Crawford but now he wants to take the fight that Crawford has his eye on and is the mando for?

                      Errol should go away and fight a tuneup or Boots instead.
