    so spence is getting a free pass then is he?

    unbelievable. the amount of pure venom thrown at golovkin for fighting brook was off the charts. but ive barely seen a negative word thrown at spence. A few grumblings about it being a tough ask for garcia and thats about it.

    Yet in this case its even worse, considering spence has a damn P4P top 3 fighter in his division who hes shown no interest in fighting yet and hes choosing mikey instead. And mikeys not even big for his own weight. How come crawford fight can wait 'no rush' but this ones ready to go straight away. It didnt need any marination (even though it could be a bigger fight), spence is ready to throw it on the grill already.

    Surely if you were to wait to build a fight for ppv, youd actually delay and build it up with the guy whos currently fighting at lightweight, not the one whos already in your damn division.

    The whole 'lets take care of our side of the street' business is looking ridiculous when that entails one side fighting a lightweight, and god knows who crawfords going to fight, probably that 'mean machine' guy who is **** average.

    Have some damn credibility for once and get rid of the double standards, this place is getting ridiculous. Hopefully mikey pulls it off and i'll piss my pants if he does.

      Spence is a bum. His best win was leftovers from Golovkin with bone anatomy injury. that's like giving Cotto credit for beating Margarito.

        Spence is not pushing for this fight he got called out so he’s down, he picked Robert Easter to win he was there to support some people on Twitter were saying he was scared of Mikey for wanting easter to win you haters are clowns doesn’t matter who he fights y’all gonna hate either way. He’s mando to the winner of porter garcia he isn’t ducking anybody but Mikey is a money fight that could be ppv and he’s the one being called out why wouldn’t he take it??

          I think you know why. It's the same reason Loma retroactively gets ***** for the Rigo fight (despite Rigo being the one who admitted turning it down at 126 for more money) despite many picking Rigo to win for obvious reasons.

          Usyk will probably get dumped on when he fights for the Heavyweight title too. God forbid if he wins he will get even more hatred.

                Throughout boxing history, true warriors have moved up weigh classes to fight the champion in order to be great.

                Shane Mosley did it with Oscar De Hoya.

                Roy Jones did it with John Ruiz.

                Amir Khan did it with Saul Alvarez.

                There should be no criticism here.

                As far as Mikey goes, it's a great payday and if he loses, he was supposed to. Its a win win unless Spence damage him mentally but i think Robert will have that towel handy just in case because they know...

                    Richard Schafer said that he talked it over with Al Haymon and this fight WILL be on PPV in December.
