    We couldn't even get Paquiao-Mayweather (the biggest money fight in history) because of beef, you think anyone is going to throw their earner welters in with Spence? He's a killer.

      None of the PBC guys want to fight Spence honestly. You see how friendly and stuff they are when they are around him? Shawn Porter,Broner, Thurman and etc act like they're around their damn father when he's around, hugging up to him and making jokes, it's sickening.

          Thurman was hurt.
          Shawn Porter straight up said no.
          Garcia coming off a loss.
          Most people including myself reject this excuse for GGG. There are challenges not too far up, and easy to make fights.

            Then he should man the hell up, move up, and try to clean up the superwelter division. Not sure he can.

              You boxing fans are weird. Al Haymon will make them fight him, whether they want to or not. I have inside knowledge that they'll be made to fight Spence...He wants to unify..why would he move up prematurely.

                Would you rather him sit on the sidelines? Who is there at welter anyway? A sick Thurman? Porter (no, thanks), who? Those look kinda meaningless fights now for someone of Spence's caliber. It's basically like GGG winning vacant titles.

                  I was a bit disappointed from a neutral point of view, i wanted to see him ASAP. He also had a long lay-off before his Brook fight. I really don't know what the issue is, but i hope it isn't anything to do with injuries.

                      Because he saw what Horn did to Pacquaio and now he (Spence)is semi-retired. Everybody is ducking Horn!
