    Fights get made not because of whats fans want. Promoters, fighters, managers dgaf about what fans want. It's been that way since time immemorial.
    Even trainers can stop fights from getting made. It's naivete to assume fans in a forum can influence what fights are made.

      Curious to hear the explanation of why the Saudi royal family is bankrolling fights staged in the U.S. I thought the whole purpose of this Saudi boxing project was to elevate and sportwash Saudi Arabian culture?

        Boots has passed the eyeball test based on beating the past 15 fighters totaling a combined loss record of 63 losses. Bud doesn’t want to ruin his career after the would be beat down.
        Spence will never face Bud again, at any weight or for any amount of money . Waking up knowing what planet you’re on is respectably more important to Spence than taking a second worse than first beating from Bud.

          He's achieved eveything at welterweight. It's understandable he wants to move up and test himself against the belt-holders there. He should drop the belts though.

              I'll tell you why. Because he looks at CNN every night just like the rest of the world and he sees the US border is wide open with no accountability. So now is the time to bring your money laundering to the States and do it right under the nose of the FBI!

                No not me. The only person that should feel threatened is Bud's accountant

                      Ask Canelo did his checks bounce. This ssk Ryan did that 30 million dollar check that Al gave him bounce. Then ask Paquiao and Conor did their checks bounce. Want some more son??
