Comments Thread For: Spence's Options For Next Fight Probably Down To Porter, Garcia

[Eff Pandas]

Absolutely, but I think the PBC fighters realize now that they if they want their biggest payday, it has to go through Spence.

Yea idk about that one. I'm not even sure that's 100% right although I see the argument for it since PBC put Spence on PPV first of the PBC WWs. Even if it is right idk that the opponents of Spence will feel that way emough to make a fight with him just yet.

And the fact that apparently Danny is on the shortlist for next suggests its not true.

Every time Spence wins a fight it seems like his next opponent option is just a quarter step up from where it was before his previous fight lol.

Spence vs Porter
Thurman vs Pacquiao

Its definitely looking like these are the best case next round of fights for these guys.

Randomly what would you put the % chance at today for Spence fighting Thurman, Manny or Bud within his next 2 fights?

I'm not sure its great for any of them.

Bud is maybe 15% if we give some value to maybe Arum being serious about making a fight w/o wanting a 3 fight deal on Spence if Spence wins.

Manny is maybe 25%. I kinda think if Manny fights Thurman & wins, which I think he could, then it'll be 0% cuz Manny is still around first & foremost for Floyd. So as long as Floyd is still breathing & he keeps winning keeping it viable I don't think Manny wants Spence based on recent sh^t. If Manny loses to Thurman however I think its much more likely he'd fight Spence. Although an L would make Manny less appealing too, but I think with Spence's luck getting big fights its a solid bet that if Manny is willing to fight Spence then he'd be the best option for Spence recent L or not.

And I'd probably put Thurman at 40% max. I think Thurman could lose to Manny or even if he wins I think he could struggle again like last time out which will have him wanting a warm up fight or some such bs instead of Spence.

How does Danny being on the shortlist not make it true? Spence is now the biggest star in that division in the PBC side minus Manny. His fights likely will be on PPV for majority of his career. You're not getting more money facing Thurman on FOX than you will facing Spence on PPV.

I mean I think he fights Porter next. So you're saying the percentage I think he fights Thurman/Pac/Bud after that? I'd say he's probably up for a mandatory after that for one of the belts. After that though? I put the chances pretty high.

If Manny beats Thurman, then he will be fed to Spence soon enough. Haymon didn't do all that for him, pay his tax bill and give him such high guarantees to get nothing in return from this investment.

Danny ain't beat a legit top ten guy since 2015. Thats not a big fight. And thats the 2nd best option for next.

Yea see. Wtf man. So Spence isn't fighting anyone I or I imagine most of us care about til early to mid 2020.

If Manny beats Thurman, then he will be fed to Spence soon enough. Haymon didn't do all that for him, pay his tax bill and give him such high guarantees to get nothing in return from this investment.

Again idk if I buy this either lol. For all the things that I dig with Haymon taking care of his fighters I don't think he gives much of a f#ck for what fans want. I think he lets fighters control their own destiny for better or worse of his own PBC brand. And with him being a manager not a promoter like most of the power brokers in boxing its sorta his job to put his fighters goals before his own PBC goals. At times I wish Haymon was a promoter like so many dummies here used to claim cuz then he could exert more control with making the big fights people wanna see more often.

300k people felt Spencer was a good scrap with the Lightweight 135 pounder.


Embarrassing

Nobody knew Garcia would put up such a pathetic fight and not try to win. Garcia was a 140 champ with a win over top 10 welterweight Broner and he was rated a top 10 pfp boxer. Fans had a right to expect a decent fight and a 100% effort by big talking Mikey. Mikey was the dare to be great hero and lots of people on here picked Mikey to beat Spence. Get your facts right. It wasn't a good scrap because Spence was way to damn good for Mikey and would have beat Mikey if Mikey was a big middleweight. He boxed Mikey's ears off and showed he was by far the more skillful and better pfp fighter. Mikey never had a chance but that's not Spence's fault. He just did his job.

[Bronx2245]

The why is because Thurman looked like crap and Spence looked great, Manny dont want no part of Spence.

I'm just sayin', Thurman was out of the ring for a while, so he'll look better next time! But you're right, he'll get a pass for fighting Pacquiao, but if Spence beat up Pacquiao, it would be "unfair?" I just hope Thurman looks good, because I've been wanting Thurman vs. Spence for a LONG time!

But lets not bs Arum has shown he's not able to make big fights that aren't in house very often. He wants to always be in control. And he also doesn't wanna pay you your value unless you sign a multifight deal. So Arum is the ducker here if you need to have a ducker cuz I think Spence & Bud both would fight anyone at 147 including each other.

Arum is the ducker, but Al Haymon isn't making an non In-House fights either

Hell Al Haymon isn't even making in-house fights as his guys fight once/year...versus retired journeymen, kickboxers, guys 2 divisions below you, Adrian Granados/Ghost Guerrero/Andre Berto/Louis Collazo/and now the Marcos Maidana of the world...

Interesting.

Fix your mind BOY

[boliodogs]

Both good fights for Spence. Porter is a champion and that is the fight Spence wants. If he can't get Porter and fights Garcia instead he is still fighting a top 5 contender so it's still a good title defense. Anybody crying about Spence fighting either guy is just a Spence hater.

Mikey Garcia did try to win. He couldn't get inside or neutralize the distance. Spencer was too tall, too long, and too fast. Had they been the same size we would've had a fight, but Spencer had too many physical advantages for Mikey to do much.

And I love how you CUCKS blame the 135 pound fighter for not making it a fight. Why didn't the significantly LARGER man FORCE the fight. Erralda couldn't even legitimately hurt a 135 pound Lightweight

#BoratLogic

And don't think I give you a pass, BOY. You rode with GGG for Y E A R S and now because you're quiet on him and jumpin on Errald weewee I ain't gonna give you a pass.

You the same dumb shit, BOY

Mikey was Top 10 PFP based on performances at..LIGHTWEIGHT LMFAO...

and that win over Broner was at 140, not 147. You stay trying to twist things just like when Mr. Middleweight aka New Money aka Mr. Pound for Pound Ca$hnelo WHOOPED lil BORAT

[lightsoutrome]

Spence-Porter
Thurman-Pacquiao
Crawford-kavilauskas
Garcia-Lipinets

That would be dope I nice tournament style line up fights and hopefully we can get the winners to face each other

[nacho daddy]

That Puerto Rican p*ssy would NEVER step in the ring with Spence or Crawford, you can tell by his mannerisms & body language whenever their names are brought up to him that he doesn't want to fight them.

no Crawford and spence are the puss ies. they will never fight each other. if I had the power I would strip their ranking put them on the bottom force them to fight their way back up if they don't fight each other before 6 months
