    In that time, do you think Crawford will have any better wins at welterweight?

      Thurman, Porter, and Garcia all fought each other at 147..

      Porter have the best resume he fought Brook, Thurman, Danny, and Broner

        ZERO Problem waiting but if you're going to keep me waiting fight the other Champion in your Division is all I ask

        Spence Jr vs Porter need to happen within the next 6 months, I don't care about your Double Mandatory's WBC, unification is suppose to take precedence over the mandatory's NO EXCUSES! I know the IBF supports this, not sure if the WBC supports this as well, it doesn't sound like it

        With 2 TV Deals now, it is no more excuses on the PBC side of things starting in December and there on out. Guys should fight Minimum 2-3 Times a Year now with 2 Networks and the Resource

        The wait will be well worth in if Spence Jr vs Crawford when they do fight can do it at Cowboys Stadium and I think that is what they're building towards just don't drag it out too long. Also that showdown should be for all the Belts at 147, it shouldn't be another Champion running around with a Belt after they Collide

          I like both Crawford and Spence and think they are the two best welterweights in the world with Spence being the best. They can only take the fights that are offered to them. Do you know of any good offer to fight a top welterweight that Spence is turning down? If you do then tell us all about it. MAN DOWN!

            Brook is not a top guy.

            No way in hell.

            And less after the fight against GGG.

              Do we now live in a world where we feel it's ok for them not to fight each other? Neither guy is really pushing for the fight and both are content not fighting each other. WTF?

                Massive fan of Spence, but have been terribly disappointed with the way they have mapped out his career since the Brook win, am sure they would get there with Spence in the end doe, but it would be later on rather than now. It seems they have a blueprint which means their fighters come on later on in their careers.

                  I fail to see how anyone can claim Spence "tip toes around the landmines." Spence has been calling out Thurman for literally years and years. He has tried to fight both Porter and Danny. Both refused, because they both wanted to wait and wait for Thurman to come back and give them their rematches the WBC ordered. That is why neither fought Spence. And why they fought each other. Thurman, Danny, and Porter are all great fighters, but they have all fought each other so they could avoid Spence.

                  Thurman created this dull in ww action. He retired with Danny and Porter both having mandated rematches with Thurman. They waited on him, until the WBC finally ordered Porter-Danny for Thurman's title.

                  Now that Thurman's title was vacated, and Porter has it, he is expected to face Spence next.

                  By your logic, Paul Williams "tip toed around the landmines" that were Oscar, Mosley, Floyd, Cotto, Trinidad and B-Hop.

                    Just wish they would stop with all the b.s and just start fighting each other.
                    At least Horn took on the best asoon as he could.
