Comments Thread For: Spence: Arum's Desperate; He's Mad Because I Hold All the Cards

[Longhaul]

this is why u gotta salute ODLH. he was the only PPV attraction to NEVER marinate a damn thing. Oscar fought em all at their peak!

Tito PRIME
Shane PRIME
Vargas PRIME
Quartey PRIME
Hopkins PRIME
Floyd PRIME
Manny PRIME


Oscar held all the cards throughout his whole career and never made fans beg or wait for anything

There was never a better example .But he had the haters to especially after he beat the hell out of Chavez.

Seemingly regardless of evidence this forum feels compelled to support Bob Arum no matter what, must be a reason for that.

Don’t go there bu$t plug I want to see the best fight the best.

I totally agree. The notion that Spence is scared is dumb and frankly the thoughts of very shallow thinkers. Boxing is an unforgiving sport. These guys on here neglect to see through the lens of a confident professional fighter of the new era. Why go through the hassle and fight Crawford now if clearly he has huge fights that can be made right now.

Spence truly believes he will beat everyone at 147, but his advisors know that if he fights Crawford next, he has no leverage and after he beats him...subsequent fights with Porter, Garcia, and Thurman won’t have the same hype and thus revenue.

If he fights Garcia, Thurman, Pac, and Porter...he will make bank, build his name, gather fans (through exciting fights), and gather BELTS. Then when he goes to fight Crawford, who undoubtedly will not have the level of opposition as the PBC fighters, he will end his WW career with dethroning the P4P.

Why peak too early with a fight against Crawford now? When you have huge paydays right in your face. In the end, Spence will be stacking belts and Crawford will be looking desperately for decent opposition.

In the end, Spence can have and get great experience and money....and then when Arum realizes he’s in a lose lose situation...Spence will be the A side. Ask Canelo what that means in the sport in today’s day and age.

What can’t you get through your thick skull after two or three fights he’s up to 154 Spenceflake has no intention of fighting Crawford.He will not be making 47 in two years .If it walks like one and it quacks like one it’s a DUCK

Spence you dont hold any cards, the guppies you're fighting are not elite. Everyone you have to fight Crawford would beat too. Mikey never touched the canvas. Bud put Khan down in round one. That hurts dont it.😁

Oscar was repeatedly out of his league, being popular didn't make him a great fighter[/QUOTE
If Mosley wasn't too busy shooting up steroids he wouldn't have beaten Oscar. Floyd was like 28 in his prime and he barely beat Oscar who was a 34 year old drug addict at the time. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Floyd was 30, Oscar 33, fight was at 154 not Floyd's weight class, stop trying to sweeten the loss for Oscar

Beating Garcia 12 rounds to zip is better than knocking Amir Khan out. Amir been knocked out 3 times before, Garcia never been beat and is a p4p champ. I'm not saying this to say Spence will win because imo its still a 50 50 fight but your logic doesn't make sense..

Ok give Spence props for going to the UK to take the belt from Brook but come on now, just face Crawford already, boxing politics is ruining the sport.

[OPS]

And Garcia moved up two weight classes. Gamboa moved up undefeated and Crawford got him out of there. Your logic makes no sense.
