Damn. A prospect. Thats to bad. Spence gonna ruin this kid imo

[hitking]

This is a waste of time. He’s not getting Thurman this year. And I highly doubt a Crawford fight can be made this year either. I say drop the belt and go ahead and make the move to 54. Hell, I’d rather see him take Mikey Garcia up on his offer than to entertain this nonsense.

[Steven Mccowan]

Watched about three of his fights on YouTube (when I heard about the Ponomarev eliminator) He's got some solid skills, but this will be too much for him. He's only like 23, so his future is bright imo. Btw, Spence will fight 3 times this year.

Yeah me too. Thats what sucks is he a good looking prospect and ibf gonna ruin him against spence. And yeah hopefully spence fights three times this yr. I think he reallywants to

So there is NOBODY in Haymon's entire Welterweight stable other then Thurman who is better then Peterson? Son please.

Yes, two guys who won't go near Spence. We all know this. Why you're acting naive is beyond me.

[Steven Mccowan]

Whatever...stay busy, keep in the public eye, keep putting on performances boxing fans enjoy, and stay on Thurman's ***** ass.

Good call. Had domination over decent peterson (even though peterson very inactive) he gonna destroy this guy and have an opportunity to get another big voluntary against hopefully thurman, or atleast porter. Future lookin good for spence if he keeps busy. But i dont mind these fights thrown in if fighters fight 3-4 times a yr. Definately builds a fan base

Porter didn't want it; Garcia didn't want it. Who else did you want to get it? Father, please!

[Steven Mccowan]

I hope that's not the case. I have no interest in Garcia vs Thurman 2 at this point

you are absolutely right. No need whatsoever for that rematch. These ww wanting only rematches after clearly losing with no hope to turn it around in rematch are very frustrating for me as fan

Again I don't buy this BS that the fighters are all scared and if Haymon really can't get guys in his own damn stable to fight him then he should of took that Golden Boy deal to fight Cotto last year or needs to sign with Top Rank. Because if Golden Boy can get Cotto to fight Spence and Top Rank can get a guy like Horn to fight Crawford (who everyone thinks is going to destroy him) but Haymon can't get Thurman, Porter, Danny to fight Spence? Sorry I don't buy it.

GB could get Cotto to fight Spence? GB was asking for options and Spence to fight Cotto. If Cotto really wanted to fight Spence or Garcia he would have told GB not to ask for options. GB didn't want to match Cotto against those fighters just because. And Arum could get Horn to fight Crawford because Horn signed over options for his next fights if he beat Manny. Lat I checked, Haymon already had Thurman, Porter and Danny fight one another. It's those 3 who aint willing to fight Spence. Are ok with the bums that Canelo has fought recently prior to fighting GGG?

Exactly, this is no different than how things used to be (in a better time). Spence could fight 4 times in a calendar year (or 16 months) depending on this fight date.

Or maybe Haymon didn't want it. Funny how other top promoters can get their top guys to fight but Haymon the most powerful man in boxing can't? You are a sucker for thinking the hold up is the fighters who have all to man said they fight who Haymon tells them too. And if it's true then Spence should go sign with one of the rival promoters today. Golden Boy was able to get Cotto to agree to fight Spence and Top Rank get's his guys to not spend years fighting each not just once but in trilogies and shyt. While Spence has to sit on the shelf 9 months for a title shot and then sits out 8 months after that just to fight bum Peterson and now will waste another 4-6 months fighting another bum all because Haymon can't get ANYONE in his stable to fight him? SUUUURE
