Comments Thread For: Vergil Ortiz, manager still want Errol Spence in all-Texas showdown

[MulaKO]

What about Boots vs Charlo and Ortiz vs Spence on the same card at the Cowboys Stadium? Hmm....Al, Golden Boy and Eddie are gonna have to pony up some serious cash but they could make this happy in the Spring and Boots vs Ortiz by the end of the year. It's risky, expensive and may be worth it at this point.

Again, I only say this because Ortiz can clearly take a Spence fight and leave Boots to dry for a while. They both had quick KO wins within 30 days, so fighting two names (Charlo and Spence) could be more interesting. Who knows.

Do you believe that Boots want to fight Ortiz after refusing a huge bag of money from Turki ???

He will do what he always does , make himself unpriceable ( so to say ) and then him and SlowEddie will claim Ortiz avoided him

He’s done it before , why not now ???

Why not call.out Maidana while you are at it?

wow say it aint so vergil

Spence and Charlo. Yeah, let's wheel out some more hasbeen Americans who haven't fought for over two years rather than make the best fights in the division. That will show TKO how it's done.

And there it is...this is Vergil and Golden Boy's proverbial 'middle finger' to Boots and Eddie. I can't be mad at it either. What we're depending on is 'one big fight' between Ortiz and Boots while Ortiz has formidable (e.g., money) options elsewhere. Just hearing Ortiz vs Spence at the Cowboy's Stadium just made me forget about Boots that quickly.

I don't believe in 'marinating' fights but the question is, who can make the most money between Ortiz and Boots while they both make money off of the 'idea' of fighting one another? This reminds me of Floyd and Pac from a business standpoint where Floyd clearly made the most money between the two of them leading up to the fight leaving Manny as the B-side...a highly paid B-side, might I add.

Who does Boots have in his back pocket that can bring in more money and attention than an Ortiz/Spence bout at the AT&T Stadium? I'll wait. At this point, it just looks like Boots 'wants' the Ortiz fight while Ortiz sees it as an option. What makes this whole situation worse is that Spence 'doesn't believe in tuneups' so this could very well be next. Who can Boots face next that will keep his end of the bargain appetizing?

They could have had a classic trilogy of fights between 2010 and 2015 and made even more money with fewer overall fights.

Well , Spence was at the fight
Maybe Spence needs cash and what bigger fight , in Texas ,than fighting Virgil ???
The grass ain’t greener on the other side

All fighters don't need cash, but most people being negative I find are broke as hell!

Everyone doesn't want to work or suck on Turki so the money isn't important, even Gervonta wan't letting that happen, also prove your point, with evidence too!

The fighters want the fight, but after hearing Oscar in the ring post fight, I won't hold my breath. Ennis vs Ortiz may never happen, boxing is boxing. Remember Mike McCallum and all the fights that he never got. Sadly, boxing is boxing..

ill rearrange this

the money is not so important when it involves fighting someone you dont want to fight

[Smash]

after this so called tough guy ortiz girly antics pretending he wanted a fight with that russian belt holder only for him and his fans to say he would fight IF they dropped their rules for the fight (LOL) yeah they will amend their rules for a spoofing BSing girly fat guy who nearly died in his last weight class making himself the bigger guy

now this, he wants all the smoke BUT he wants 2 zombies spence & charlo FIRST before the smoke lol

definitely the canelo divas about this guy & i dont think hes even won a belt yet!
