Will Spence be a champion in three or more weight classes?

I would love to see Spence vs Hurd... Thats a fight of the year written all over it.

But Spence been mentioned moving up years ago. Just let him finish what he started at 147. He 29, and close to unifying.

My question is...... Will dudes find another excuse to hate when he does.

Yeah the excuse is he didnt fight the best titlest other than himself.

He can't leave 147 without fighting Crawford

He has no business at 160 and would be ****** to fight there. Why make things more difficult for yourself by fighting guys naturally heavier than you are. He is 29 and was done growing years ago. He will never be a middleweight and is smaller than Jr middleweights like Lara and Jermell who are 6 ft. tall with big shoulders compared to Spence who is 5 ft 9 inches. I hope he stays at 147 and beats the best welterweights for many years. There is nothing wrong with a boxer staying at his best weight. That's what smart boxers do.

I don't want him to go up to 154 until he fights Pacquiao/Crawford if he beats Porter. Once he does that, then he could move up. But Spence himself said he sees himself moving up soon. Right now he makes weight fine, but it probably is getting harder and harder.

Maybe he is following the GGG blueprint

Truely ruling one weight class is more impressive than moving up in weight to try to beat the weakest possible champion like Canelo does. I'd pick Spence to beat anyone at 147 including Crawford. Spence has never failed to comfortably make 147 and he is 29 years old and all done growing. He can stay at 147 or probably beat anyone at 154. He is much too small for middleweight and should stay out of that weight class. Middleweight has some bad MFers like Jermall, GGG and Canelo and he can't beat those guys in my opinion. Fighting much over your best fighting weight is foolish and has hurt lots of boxers like Mikey, Donaire, Rigo, Brook and Gonzalez and many others. Chase greatness but chase it with boxers your own size.

Dudes get done growing by 26 - 28 or so, but you'll more often than not see 'em move up again at around 30 when the weight cut reputedly gets much harder. They ain't coming to the ring significantly bigger but they just cut less out of necessity. In fact Spence is unusual in not having moved up already - kid's been at WW since his pro debut at age 22 or so, but I'd be very surprised if he doesn't move up to 154 within the next year or so.

I think he can still do well at 154, but agree that 160 will probably be a step too far, though I'm sure he'd give a good account of himself.

The guy is only fighting his second welterweight with a pulse. Let's give him some time before were start talking about moving up in weight. He'd lose his biggest asset moving up, his size.

[Green Trees]

Hes going to hang tough as 154 after the porter fight no matter what happens. Anything to avoid Crawford and Canelo.

I think he'll be a 4 division champion.
