    Good fight

    Fan of Algieri but Think Spence will make it easy work.

    Unfortunately according to BigDunny1 , PBC will be bankrupt by then so this fight probably won't get made

Good step up but let's not act like he is being pushed fast because he's fighting Algeri who is really a 140lb fighter who doesn't have a single significant win at 147. Algeri is not top 10 ranked at welterweight in RING, ESPN or any credible rankings. And not sure why you lumping Spence in with Mayweather promotions when he has nothing to do with them. This fight will be promoted by Lou Dibella not Mayweather promotions. Spence's last 2 fights were promoter by GYM, TGB. And this is now Dibella. He's a Haymon fighter not Mayweather fighter. I don't think Mayweather has a say in any of the fights he gets.
      You understand that there is a development process when it comes to grooming fighters, right? dude, spence is a prospect and a fight like this is the next logical step before putn him in there with better fighters..Spence needs experiwnce against experienced fighters so he doesnt blow his load in the 1st rd, punch himswlf and get sparkwd in the 2nd.

      I dont rate Spence just yet but Algieri is a decent fighter himself, had that hypejob Khan running all night long lol i dont rate Khan at 147, i dont rate Algieri at 147 and IF Spence does win, which im NOT saying he will, i wont rate him either at 147. Bcuz beatn someone who isnt rated at WW shudnt get one rated at WW...except Khan bcuz hes fast doe lol

      I have Alfieri winning over Spence

        I love this for Spence. I feel bad for Algieri though. I think he takes a beating in this one and Spence proves he's ready for the top guys.
        On onother note its funny how some of the posters here claiming Algieri is a tough guy and the man to beat are the same ones that b1tched and complained, even called him a c-level fighter when Pac announced he was fighting him. lol!

          Bey dominated Molina for 9 1/2 rounds. He's not a bum. And Vasquez? Come on man your grasping at straws now.

            Algieri is a warrior and loves facing a tough challenge but Spence is too classy. Algieri should really fight another couple of tune ups before taking on the likes of Spence.

              Man out of all the prospects Al has he has brought up Spence almost perfectly.

                Not a bad fight for Spence, it'll be interesting to see how his performance compares to how Pac and Khan did against Algieri.

                Glowacki-Cunningham seems a good fight. I could see Cunningham winning some rounds early but fading down the stretch and losing a close decision. Usyk looks good but is probably better waiting a bit longer for his shot and getting in another fight or two first.

                  I don't understand why haymon is putting this fight on nbc rather than like espn or spike. Spence isn't someone that has shown he can generate big views. Haymon should use the prime time nbc slots for big time events
