Spence: If Crawford wants 50/50 he dont want the fight
Collapse

Spence is the one talking about all the inhouse fights hes making and Crawford is at the back of the queue and then Leonard Ellerbe says pretty much the same thing, listing all the potential fights for Spence and didnt say Bud, when asked about it he even says he isnt required, hes at the back of the queue.
Bud has made it very clear and Bob Arum has made it very clear that they want to face Spence next. So with all that in mind who dont want that fight? Im a Spence fan, im a fan of both fighters but its glaringly obvious who is and who isnt in a rush to make that fight.

Spence would just come out and say I earned $$$ amount of dollars versus your $$ dollars. Instead he is trying to use PPV numbers as leverage. Money talks, and none of these PBC fighters are talking about secret checks they are getting on the side.
No sources other than hearsay. Even if Spence was earning more than reported, it likely brings him about even with Crawford's earnings, which still makes this a 50/50 fight. You cite others for hating on PBC, yet you're hating on TR with your own bias. Crawford vs. Spence is a 50/50 fight in terms of money, skills and ability. These two are in their prime and should fight within the next 12 months. It is becoming more obvious that it is Spence who doesn't want to risk that "0"...he would rather fight smaller opponents like Garcia and Pacquiao, than take on Crawford.
