Unless it's Terence, Thurman, Porter, or a 154 who cares to see Spence

    So the complaint is that he's so good nobody can beat him? He'd be the betting favorite against any welterweight in the world. He's willing to fight the best guys willing to fight him. Crawford is with Arum, that fight isn't going to happen. Thurman is taking a tune-up and then fighting a mandatory. If Spence's fights don't interest you, don't watch. I consider him must see TV.

        I'd like to see him fight others - Ponamarev, Horn, Brook rematch potentially down the Road just any of the top guys that have the balls to fight him really. I just want to see him stay more active he's a joy too watch.

          Wtf this is just hate. The guy is both entertaining and technical.
          He seems to always come to fight.
          This kid needs to be in Vegas for his next one versus a big name

            ^The Truth here.
            Crawford fight won't happen.

              If Devon Alexander beats Victor Ortiz convincingly, it'll be Errol Spence vs Devon Alexander in June.

                Crawford is with Arum. He won't be fighting anybody you listed.

                Keith fights Vargas in April and then fights Shawn later in the year, so neither is available for Spence.

                If Keith keeps winning, the plan is for him to fight Spence in early March 2019 on CBS.

                Spence will likely fight two more times this year against the best available contenders, one of which will have to be a mandatory (IBF is very strict).

                Then he'll get Thurman in March 2019.

                If what you say goes down, then his best bet is to push for a Danny Garcia fight once he clubs down Rios.

                Spence-Garcia in the summer would be a big event.

                  Don't think Garcia will want it. If he beats Rios, he'll be WBC mandatory for 2019. Spence is being lined up to face Devon Alexander in June if Devon looks good against Ortiz.

                  Garcia is more likely to face the Thurman-Spence winner next year, especially if Spence has to make a mandatory defense this year.

                    Unfortunately I think the welter division is gonna turn into a bunch of showcase fights, guys fighting people who are clearly below them. Seems as if Spence wants the other guys but they aren't interested. I'm a fan of Thurman but looks as if he doesn't want it, Crawford only seems to be talking about crocodile dundee. None of the three have the personality to make it a big crossover bout so imo there's no point spending ages building it. It's the same people who would watch it now who will watch it a year down the line.
