    Spence vs Berto and Porter vs Collazo

    I wouldn't mind seeing these as stay busy fights in Dec for a March/April bout with Spence/Porter. What do you guys think?

    Spence has his stay busy fight with an orthodox fighter while Porter has his with a southpaw.

    Why beat around the bush? It seems they're both available and they would probably make more facing each other.

      I'd love for that too, but realistically, do you think it'd actually happen this December?

        THIS.

        Why are boxing fans always making these fake ass buildup scenarios with uncompetitive fights or far less competitive fights like promoters try to push on fans???

        Just give me the damn fight I wanna see. I'm built up now lol. I'm gonna die one day. I ain't got time for this bs.

        But Porter can't fight Collazo anyway I don't think. He's gonna need to unify or fight a WBC mandatory, which Ugas may or may not be that guy. I've been bored with these bs elimination fights for mandatory slots forever, but I think Ugas won one last night so he might be the guy now.

            I don't see why not. I especially don't see the justification of spending resources and wasting time on less significant fights when they both seem to want it, there's no mandatories in the way, it's a bigger money fight for everyone involved, and they're both already established elite fighters in the welterweight division (no need to marinate).

              i'm not trying to have these "buildup" scenarios, i'm just being real. do you honestly think spence and porter can make it happen in dec? if not dec and next year, then why not have these stay busy fights. i'd rather watch those than having them sit out the rest of the year. spence himself said "next year" so I don't get the surprise?

                I hope you're right then, but when the guy himself says "next year", it's kind of hard to see it happening when we want it to

                again ain't beating around the bush, i want to see it just like you, i'm just trying to remember the last fight that happened when we wanted it to happen

                  Yes they honestly have no reason why they cant make that fight for early next year. Same network? same manager? same promoter? Everything is perfect. Make the fight ***** this let it marinate *****.

                  A better scenario would be Danny vs Collazo on the undercard of Porter vs Spence

                    He want to give Spence more time , you know a fight with Porter have to have VADA, Pac and Spence are like the only top 147 guys that are not using Vada..
