    My sense has been that both sides are milking and marinating the fight. Building their brands in the meantime with other opponents.

      When Spence Jr vs Crawford fight...it should be for all the Belts, makes their fight even more appealing

      It is not like he is doing what Fury is doing by fighting Schwartz and Otto Wallin, buying himself time fighting ***** opponents. He is fighting OTHER WORLD CHAMPIONS in the process trying to unify so I don't even know what is the problem here to be honest

      While Spence Jr is hunting down belts one by one, Crawford has the easier path by default he will have no choice but to fight Mean Machine Guy Edigius Kavalalvalaaa whatever, Alexander Bes*****, Amir Imam and guys like that

      To no surprise it is ZERO logic to the Criticism of Spence, it is a REACH actually...


      Hey you don't have sh#t better to do so Have At It! "He Is Ducking Crawford To Fight Other World Champions First" Oh The SHAME!

        Robbie, Bob said he wouldn’t make the fight until it was a ppv. He said this long before Spence said the above. Bob changed only after the Crawford ppv bombed and Spence/Mikey sold more than expected. Did you forget that?

        you saying my post is a defense of pbc is not accurate. You guys have to stop starting the narrative in the middle. Start from the beginning.

        Bob didn’t want to make the fight until he realized he had the smaller draw. Now if Spence doesn’t jump you call it a duck. That is ridiculous.
        This "big draw" Spence couldn't even get people to show up to a free event the other day in LA. This "big draw" Spence has always had mediocre ratings when he was on Showtime. Arum was right to want to marinate the fight for a while because both Spence and Crawford are the two dullest personalities in boxing and it's not like PBC was willing to risk one of their biggest prospects at that time. Now that the fans are starting to actually care about the fight PBC is still unwilling to make it happen.

          I get the feeling that Crawford is content at TR fighting whoever they dig up for him while making good money. I also get the feeling he would fight Spence in a heartbeat if the fight could get made. He's just not gonna jump through hoops for it to happen.

          Spence, knows he has his own stable of guys to fight at 147 before Crawford is an option.

          There's no urgency from either guy at the moment because they both know what's up. If they fight, it won't be until at least late 2020 IMO

            Avoiding the biggest fight to fight weaker fighters. That's ducking. If this was some other fighter you'd be saying the same damn thing. Sick of this ridiculous shit from PBC tards.

              Wrong.

              Spence is trying to collect as many titles as possible and get in as many PPV fights to build his brand against the likes of Mikey, Porter, Pac, etc before going for Crawford. Why? Because he wants to be the A side when the fight happens, not split 50-50.

              Crawford on the other hand has no notable opponent to fight against on ESPN while fulfilling his exclusive to ESPN contract. He wants the fight now because its now or never for him, he has nothing.

              It's called business, leverage, and power moves.

                Did y’all see his last fight?
                Snooze fest. Could KD Mikey.

                PAC will most definitely UD Spence.

                But first let’s see if Spence can get past Porter. I sense an upset there.
                You again, Spence hater. You said the same damn thing yesterday. Do you think if you keep telling the same lie enough it will become true? Spence has never been offered a fight with Crawford because Arum won't do business with Haymon and calls him a cancer. You can't duck a guy who won't pay you. Crawford himself has said often and clearly that Spence is not ducking him so why do you keep saying what Crawford says is not true? Pac could have fought Spence instead of Thurman. Spence wanted that fight and still does. Spence would end Pac's career by brutal KO. Spence did a number on Mikey winning every round and throwing 1100 punches and landing 400 punches to Mikey's 75 punches. So he didn't KO Mikey. He KOed the last ten guys before Mikey.

                Spence fights better welterweights than Crawford does. Brooks was better than Horn, Mikey was better than Khan and Peterson was better than Benavidez. We will see how Spence does against Porter. If Porter beat him then you are right, he is overrated. If Spence KOs Porter as I think he will it shows he is a good level above the Thurman, Danny Garcia type guys. Meanwhile quit with the daily Spence is no good and ducking Crawford BS threads. Spence is fighting back to back world champions but who is Crawford fighting worth a damn?

                  Don’t worry about what’s going on in America clown. Simple solution. Worry about that garbage from Matchroom and Frank Warren

                    It's undeniable. Let's just hope he gets Ruiz-ised.

                      What was the woderful high dollar offer to Spence to fight Crawford? There has never been any offer ever for Spence to fight Crawford so how is he ducking? Crawford himself says Spence is not ducking him so who are you to say Spence is ducking him? Crawford knew Arum would not do business with Haymon but he signed with him again anyway so how bad does he want to fight Spence anyway?You are just a hater of certain boxers like GGG, Wilder and Spence and you just throw logic, fairness and reason out the window.
