      However, I agree with you about Spence. Why would he move up to 154 when he just became a champ at 147 and only forced a top level guy to face him because he was a mandatory. Plenty of big fights to be made at 147.

      There is no reason for a fighter to move up in weight if they are making the weight class limit and there are challenges available in that division.
      I NEVER said for lil g to move up & I don't want him to move up cuz I want him to get beat up some more....It was lil g & abel that want to make that move so they don't fight any more good fighters after the Nelo rematch.

        It is very possible but I got Errol winning with a KO to the body.

          He should be trying to make fights vs Porter, Garcia, or Crawford then Thurman.

              That's if they get in the ring with him. He wants smoke with them all, let's see if they want it back.

                I think he is in fairness. He tried to get Porter, who turned it down. I'm sure they inquired about Garcia who seems more intent on building his clothing brand than his legacy recently.

                It will be hard to unify in 2018. I think Thurman wants a tune-up then a re-match with Porter so that's him booked up for 2018. Porter said he won't fight again until he re-matches Thurman and I doubt Garcia goes for Spence.

                Crawford I'm sure would be down but I doubt Uncle Al will let Spence fight on a Top Rank show.

                I think 2019 is his best hope of getting something bigger than Peterson and by then he may have outgrown the division.

                    Peterson is a tough fighter that beat Khan and Danny Garcia (imo). Spence said other top welters like Garcia and Porter didn't want to fight, except Thurman who is out from surgery.

                      Thurman turned down the chance to fight Spence before he had a belt. Thurman will only fight Spence if he has to.
