I can't disagree with your take, but personally I gave him points for saying how "disgusted" he was at the end. That made me legit chuckle I gotta admit. Sometimes your choice of words can bump you up a grade with me.
Are you kidding me? The dude is a 45-1 underdog. This is the type of fighter he should be fighting as his first fight as a pro.
And don't give me the "everyone is scared" BS
You telling me he couldn't get a Victor Ortiz, Berto, Alexander or the other Peterson brother? Hell even Joshua Clottey or at least a name who used to be good with an actual chance to make Spence look bad.
This is unacceptable. And I'm disgusted
You've been a member of BS for 13 years and still don't understand what a mandatory is?
Because he is a mandatory and Spence has to. Stop crying.

Blame the IBF, not Spence. There's no way a guy like Ocampo should be getting a shot without winning a good eliminator first

Fulfilling a mandatory, gets him away from mandatory status for another year which I hope will lead him to pursuing bigger names and unification. Gotta keep in mind, Dsg and Porter weren't available and neither is Thurman, with those names out might as well get the mandatory out of the way. Ortiz, Alexander or Berto would also be that big of underdogs and it wouldn't help fulfill Spence's mandatory. The other guys you named arent any more relevant than ocampo. Just my take

Are you fools ******ed on this site? It's his mandatory fight. He was either to fight Ocampo or get stripped of his title. That title seems to be his only bargaining chip or way to even get anyone else in the ring. Fighting and beating his mandatory will give him another year before he has to fight another one and will open him up to face the other title holders in the division. That is if they'll even step up to fight him
Mandatory?
Old ass Manny Paquiao was getting ****ted on for fighting Jeff Horn his mandatory for the WBO, why does Spence get exemption?

yeah a lot of posters have a double standard when it comes to mandatories. im sure if you look at the ggg/wade thread i bumped you could probably catch a couple of these guys out in there. a lot of posters werent so forgiving about that mandatory.
