    I can never fault a fighter for chasing greatness. It's what legends are made of. I'll give Spence as much credit for this as I have GGG for beating Brook. Not much.

      There's an exclusive deal with ESPN that prevents Crawford from fighting anywhere but that network.

      On the other side, Showtime has invested a lot of money in Spence will not just allow him to go fight on ESPN.

      The only way we get them in the ring is a PPV fight. We all know this business. Let's not act like we don't know the game.
      Well make it ppv then....

        Exactly. Daramshow is just fixated on them fighting next as part of his anti american, anti black fighter agenda.

        The fights to make next are Crawford/Manny on PPV and then Spence/Thurman or SPence/Porter v Garcia winner and then have the winners fight on PPV like you said.

          Spence my guy and Although he's not calling Garcia out Garcia should be his last option. Understand financially it make sense for both but no. Garcia on the other hand should focus on and face Loma cuz I think he can win that hands down n it's a unification bout. **** Arum, Arum needs to make a push n push this unification between Loma n Mikey.

            Lamont, a worn out fighter who didn’t throw any punches.

            His most recent opponent? Forgot the guys name.

            Next up for Spence? A 135lber in Garcia who he will outweigh 20+ pounds fight night.

            After that Spence will challenge Sor Rungvisai for the welterweight title.

            A complete fraud.

            FOH ....Its not his fault Brook chose to go fight GGG when he was his mandatory

            How is it his fault NOBODY wanted to fight except Lamont at the time...when Garcia n Porter was waiting on Thurman

                Errol isn’t lying. Mikey is the best possible opponent in December. However, being a big ww fighting a short lw will instantly turn him heel for the first time in his career. Many will root for the little underdog instead of the big dog. And taking this fight means he will have to also test himself against bigger guys later in his career or receive backlash. He already has gotten some weight bully heat. This is a must see fight I don’t care what anyone says though. The boxing world criticized odlh pacman and had to eat crow.

                  Spence did say Mickey is the best "Available" fighter and I think thats the point. Thurmond isn't available, Garcia and Porter are not available. Whose left? I don't see anyone and the Mickey fight would be interesting and a good payday for both.

                      Spence vs Crawford is the best fight that can be made at ww. In my opinion, those two are the best wws in the world right now and that includes thurman, porter and garcia. i think spence and crawford are the best two so thats the fight id like to see. i wish mikey would fight loma! Id much rather see that then spence v mikey.

                      Like many other people here have already said, i too give mikey props if he really does get in there with spence.

                      Mikey been dropping names for a long time now so ill believe he actually fights spence when i hear the bell ring starting the first round.
