Comments Thread For: Spence Laughs at Thurman's 2020 Fight Proposal, Expects Injury

What is Spence`s and Crawford`s excuse for not fighting each other?

Different promoters, they fight on different networks. The usual BS. This is why I hate that boxing has become more of a “business “. Fighters just need to tell their promoters make the fight happen and do what you gotta do.

Yeah and yall Bumroll nuthuggers aka former flimos went full GGG exposed doe.

And Mikey isn't even a lightweight to begin with. He started at 126.

Bumroll the cripple and midget beater p4p king already.

The spence hate runs deep in this one haha.

So it's spence's fault brook went up to fight GGG and got his eye socket broken in the process? He was brook's IBF mandatory already. And Brook actually had the balls to fight Spence when everyone was saying he should move up. All of that is Spence's fault-gotcha.

Btw whoever said GGG got exposed in that particular fight is a moron. Sure, Brook had his moments but the fight only lasted 5rds. and brook was holding on to the ropes to keep from falling by the end of it.

GGG got exposed when he ducked Ward like the hoe that he is.

I can't believe some are bringing up the Spence is ducking Crawford thing HAHA Nobody is ducking anybody, seriously those two have each other's phone number and both confronted each other. As a matter of fact Spence told Crawford to his face that he'll knock him out because he's too light not once but twice. Both Crawford and Spence know that there are politics behind it otherwise I have no doubt they would have been fought. Crawford is my boy but his best wins are Gamboa, Jeff Horn, Benevidez (injured leg), Indongo (stopped by Programs) and Viktor Postol. And Spence best wins are Peterson, Brook and Algeri so both aren't mind blowing resumes lol

Spence replied, “Let’s see if Tony and Jarrett Hurd fight, I’ll fight the winner of them.”

Man in a perfect world I'd like to see Spence fight the winner of that fight!! well I rather see Spence vs Hurd!! Also it's good that Spence gave Harrison some credit on the didn't against Charlo.

Mikey garcier wins this on descion and he beat a weak champ at 140 he's a lightweight really who's spence trying to kid feeling arrogance creeping in with spence of late he used to come so humble but has only really beat brook of note who was clearly weight drained and washed up after golovkin this is his real test which he will lose

[factsarenice]

Bro! It’s a promotional thing! You no Spence is not making any excuses. Crawford’s promoter BOB ARUM does not like to do buisness with Erol Spence promoter AL HAYMON. A true boxing fan knows this!

Actually that's not true. For legal reasons Bob can NOT directly approach Errol Spence. Bob has in fact reached out to Al Haymon at Crawford's request on multiple occasions but without success.

[factsarenice]

Lol well Golovkin arguably lost every fight after the Brook fight except the Vanes one.

ARGUABLY.

Arguably... Vanes gave Charlo all that he could handle.

Why don't u chase crawford? You know, the fighter who is actually active?

Spence clearly stated in his run in with Crawford that he, Spence, would take an easier path.

Translation....I'm not fighting Crawford.

[JWHardin]

ya wanna good laugh take a look at spents next opponent

You mean if you want a good laugh take a look at Crawford's next opponent. Collazo. If he gets the big fight he wants it will be Amir Khan. That is better at least because Khan beat the piss out of Collazo.

One, in that same meeting you mention Spence also said that he was taking an easier path meaning he does not want to fight Crawford. Spence is fighting Garcia, a guy Crawford beat up in the amateurs.

Frankly, Spence has never fought anyone remotely similar to Crawford. At 154 I might favor Spence over Crawford but at 147, no chance, I'll be the first to go on record stating that Crawford eats him up.

Bottom line, Crawford is just far better technician, a superior boxer.
