What is the hold up on Porter vs Spence?

[turnedup]

He might be waiting out to see if Thurman gets injured and gets called as a fill in...just saying..it's Thurman after all.

Spence was asking for the Porters and Thurmans of the world and finally has Porter and has gone silent. I don't know what the heck this dude is doing, but if it is a hold up on his side (Which is what Kenny Porter has said) then it isn't a good look at all

I've been hearing more & more cats suggest he gots a drinking problem. Idk if thats just rumor bs or legit, but there has gotta be something up with Spence fights & maybe it is Spence idfk.

Do you think Pacquiao would accept Spence as the opponent if Thurman got injured? I don't after the dodged him post-Mikey cuz that seemed like the fight to make for about 5 seconds, but it seems like Pac was only around for Mikey if he won.

I suspect Porter should stay ready cuz he's more likely to get okay'd by Team Pacquiao than Spence I kinda feel like.

Spence gonna fight Canelo in September

Honestly hopefully thats whats up in the air cuz that'd be a move I could get behind. Spence is older than Canelo ffs. And he's not 1/10th of Canelo's popularity & idk that he could be on Canelo's level if he got all the fights he wanted or not, but he shouldn't be so far behind thats for sure. A good way to leapfrog Canelo would be to beat Canelo.

Idk if thats a great move for him doe, but if he's cutting weight like rumored its possible we are seeing a less than 100% version of Spence now & he gets better with a move up to a more natural weight idk.

He fought garcia basically clean, with the testing starting while he was out of shape, he wasnt hitting as hard and got tired and got slappy later in that fight. He cant make the same mistake of fighting a guy like porter clean. Guarantee this fight gets signed and spence will already have his eight pack before the official camp.

Would Manny take Spence without giving him a full camp? Ehh..I don't know man...maybe. To be honest, IMHO I think he might, given the right circumstances and a short window for Spence to drop that weight fast..maybe..but with boxing, these days guessing what will happen is like throwing a hundred darts at a wall and praying one hits the bullseye. Could be porter, could be someone else. Won't be Garcia though.

Negotiating with Crawford?

Considering the Canelo fight?

Once again Silence is a good thing in boxing, notice that Bob Arum is not running around bashing Al Haymon anymore also all indications that Wilder vs Fury II is indeed happening in 2020


So all indications is that Spence Jr vs Crawford could indeed be in strong negotiations behind the scenes...HOPEFULLY!

if not then Spence Jr will likely sign soon

With modern testing techniques it can take a long time to cycle off.

Idk man. I think he coulda had Spence. I think PBC wanted Spence vs Pacquiao. Thurman f#cking around more than PBC is f#cking around with Spence's trajectory.

I think Porter would be the most likely name guy if Thurman got hurt. I think they probably would just postpone it/cancel the date doe.

ANd lol yea think Garcia is out now. But I know we'd be seeing Pacquiao vs Mikey if Mikey woulda beat Spence.

I've heard that Spence and Crawford are negotiating.
