Why did GGG not pick Erroll Spence

[al-Xander]

Well have a winner

You can't hurt what you can't hit. Spence would have moved his head and made ggg miss those wild swings and made him pay with slick jabs and 1-2's

So ggg picked a non slick guy who is easy to hit

STAX know what up

[Dean_Razorback]

spence is not even a champion yet. also GGG blasts him away. i mean no one at 160 lbs pose a threat to him, let alone fighters from weight classes bellow

[MPX309]

Well if we are to believe the story that Hearn is spinning then Spence was never going to be an option. Plus he fighting Bundu this weekend.

[killakali]

I know why.

But that would have raised his profile Spence is a us olympics

But I know why he didn't

Do you

Like Spence or Haymon would have taken that fight

[boliodogs]

What the hell are you talking about. GGG wasn't looking for a welterweight to fight and picked Brook in preference to Spence. GGG tried to get fights with MIDDLEWEIGHTS Eubank and Saunders and when they both refused to fight time was running out for his HBO date. Brook was offered to GGG for a high paying fight in England and GGG accepted it. No offer to fight Spence was ever made to GGG. Team Spence would never be foolish enough to ask to fight GGG. I think Spence is a great welterweight and probably better than Brook. The point is Spence was NEVER in the mix to fight GGG. If you are saying that GGG would fight Brook but would be afraid to fight Spence for the same money for fear of losing to Spence then you are a idiot.

Do you

Because Spence still has the pacifier on

[eco1]

i think KB would kick Spence

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Y'all don't think things thru very well


Golovkin was in talks for Eubanks,,, deal was done, eubanks got scared and backed out, his promoter not wanting to lose the Golovkin coming to the UK fight, offered up brooks,, both brooks and GGG agreed, and here we are..

If Brook was with PBC, and spence with hearn, then spence probably would have gotten it..


Let's not act like Golovkin sought out Brook.. It was basocally happenstance woth Eubanks getting scared and dealine to fight night was dwindling,, needed to make a fight asap..
Brook was at the right place at the right time

[CaneloMaidana]

Because he's getting paid a lot of money to fight in the UK, obviously.

Errol Spence can't even fill his own kitchen, not a champion and has fought nobody.

Spence has main evented cards in Dallas and Brooklyn that drew thousands, unlike Wade or Monroe.

Top notch excuse making for picking on 2 division smaller man.
