    As others already mention, that is the benefits of having everybody under one banner in that Division plays to his favor.

    Just like what is going on at 154 right now with all of them getting ready to fight each other: Lara vs Vanes II, Jermell Charlo vs Jackson, Jermall Charlo vs Austin Trout, Andrade vs Willie Nelson

    The same will happen at Welterweight, only person they need to get on Board is Brook but the Welterweight Division post Mayweather and Pacquiao will be a even BETTER Division without them because it is more talent now and all are mostly under Haymon and PBC

      hmm, I didn't know that. Fair point. Although, I can't imagine somebody using creatine within the week of a weighin or even two weeks; there's the risk of too much water retention while you're trying to make weight. Could be though. There's only one way to find out then...not that it's full proof, but it's a start...

        honestly tho, if I was a fighter I would just ask for vada testing, maybe it's just the way he looks, but he has estrogen boobs (to even the ratio of testosterone) and a plastic look to his body. I hope guys don't duck him, cause he seems to be the real deal, he's smart, strong and if he's clean, it's all the better.


        you're an absolute bitter clown.......


        the same b*tch ******* that he's had since the Olympics? get this...maybe his body is weird. maybe just maybe genetically he was born with b8tch *******.


        and maybe (just maybe) we can find a life.

          Thurman aint duck Spence...it was silly to match.them.up.in the first place @ that particular time....Spence was exclusively fighting cans

          Why would I (Thurman) fight a guy who was hasn't fought nobody....just cuz TBE said it.
          When I had to climb the rankings and still cant get big fights. Thats fckin backwards and ******.

          But I think Spence would beat Thurman due to Thurman s identity crisis.

          Are u a boxer/puncher or a runnner lol

I hope he doesn't have a hard time securing another high-level fight moving forward.
            He buzz sawed Algeri. Fear in the WW world!

              He doesn't really have to use it close to a fight, it could of been from some time before. With creatine you're supposed to cycle off for a month, say like 3 or so months using it then stop for awhile. I didn't know this either until I saw a video about it.

                you mad? didn't you quote me saying "maybe that's just the way he looks" ??? And yet, you didn't actually register the words, but you did repeat them in defense. I don't know whether to laugh or shake my head in disappointment. You know someone started an entire thread on the subject, try not to have an aneurysm. Link below, bro

                      Yes.

                      After beating such a great competitor as Algeri everyone will be scared and run.

                      I don't blame them, Spence is truly a once in a lifetime type of talent. That win proved it
