Comments Thread For: Errol Spence: A Fight With Canelo Would Be Awesome at 160-Pounds

[Combat Talk Radio]

Let boxing continue to die then. Y'all have all sorts of excuses for not seeing top undefeated fighters fight. There is nobody more important to Spence future than Bud Crawford. If he don't fight Bud really soon don't tell me about no Spence no more!

The problem is you have it backwards. Let me edit it so it's correct.

Boxing isn't going to die over one welterweight fight between guys that the casual masses don't know or care about. Top Rank, BoMac and Crawford have all sorts of excuses for not fighting top undefeated fighters like Errol Spence. There is nobody more important to Crawford's future than Errol Spence. If he don't fight someone with a pulse really soon don't tell me about no Pacquiao no more!

As edited, this is correct.

Errol Spence AT WELTERWEIGHT is above Crawford on the pick list. Spence wants it, Crawford NEEDS it.

When you NEED a thing, you accept B-Side to get it.

Crawford demanding 60% or even 50% says he doesn't feel he needs it.

Crawford refusing to EARN those splits by beating top guys like Keef, Ugas, Danny, or Porter isn't going to help him. He HASN'T DONE SH^T AT WELTERWEIGHT!!!

Ok, go talk to your guy and set him straight.

AT some point, you and others need to understand and reconcile this. The BUSINESS of boxing.

It's not about what I want to see, it's about what is. Has been for years.

I literally just posted a quote from Floyd saying essentially the same thing.
