Comments Thread For: Spence: I'm On Verge Of Cleaning Out 147, I've Fought Better Foes Than Crawford

[Gary Coleman]

This fight WILL NOT happen before a full crowd is allowed at the venue and bars are allowed full capacity.

Why folks cannot grasp this is beyond me.

[_original_]

Crawford
Pacquiao
Thurman

He hasn’t defeated those guys so that’s far from cleaning out the division. I like Spence and rank #1 but his best wins were already beaten by Thurman and GGG.

[Oregonian]

Just one more thing...

Pacquiao shouldnt have to box Spence or Crawford at this point. He hasnt fought in a year and a half now and at his age thats going to affect him more. Hes not a top welterweight anymore. He has the right to cherry pick and hopefully retire for his sake. Manny has nothing to prove and im not the biggest fan but i dont want to see him get badly beaten by Spence or Crawford

———-

He’s been cherry picking since 2012 so he could rematch Rios or Broner or Mathysse or Vargas or Algieri or even Clottey.

To clean out the division he needs to beat Thurman and Crawford.

Both fights he has expressed disinterest in.

[Curtis2]

Lets say that Spence has no plans in fighting Crawford.

Does this means that Crawford should continue to fight subpar competition until he gets the fight that he wants or does he steps it up to prove he is the man to beat?

Spence is so obvious.... he's in full scared rabbit RUN from the P4P #1 TCrawford!!! Just a sad PBC hype WW...

[VashDBasher]

He indeed has the better resume, but that fight needs to happens soon. Pac doesn’t need to fight against Spence or Crawford. He’s earned his right to just coast to some easy paydays.

Bud won 6 titles in 3 weight class, including one of them where he was undisputed. Spence won 2 belt in 1 division. So Crawford accomplished much more in all than Errol...

Terence is recognized the best P4P by ESPN and arguably the second best P4P by the Ring Magazine(the bible of boxing). So he is the best no matter what the division you are.

Spence doesnt seems want to be the best because he not want to fight the best. Remember for to be the best you have to beat the best.

Spence should run after Crawford instead of leaving him to wait and grow old. If Spence respect the sport, he should give the fight that everyone wants to see. Otherwise history will be remembered for its eternal hollow and embarrassing refusal to confront Bud.

Errol Spence Jr.'s welterweight hit list grew with a decisive unanimous points victory over Danny Garcia. The 30-year-old Spence Jr. (27-0, 21 KOs) said he's not long for the 147-pound weight limit after defending his WBC and IBF championships during his third consecutive FOX pay per view event.

I like Spence and Crawford but it’s disappointing to see them continually dismiss each other. They could give us this generation’s Leonard-Hearns or at least De La Hoya-Trinidad but right now they are on pace to be the welterweight Bowe-Lewis, as in another “what if” matchup that never happens

[Joeboxeo]

You idiots didn't even read the article did you?

Yes little man i did it. You?

[Combat Talk Radio]

If Crawford doesn't fight Ortiz next he has no excuse for ducking Porter,Ortiz said hes the easiest fight to make for Crawford & won't price himself out from the fight either.

I say thats a 55-45 fight for Crawford.

This is the correct answer.


But it's like I told people on NSB and nobody listens:

All Crawford had to do, was follow the DAMN TRAIN (CJ) and fight Keef. Or Shawn. Prove himself.

People need to understand the BUSINESS of boxing.

Virgil Ortiz has a belt. Beat him and take it. Now you're unified like Spence. Then Spence can't say you haven't beaten anyone.

Right now, he's not wrong and everyone knows he's not wrong.
