Comments Thread For: Spence Says Crawford Needs To Take Lower Purse Split: "I'm The Big Dog At 147"

[Combat Talk Radio]

But Boots did not get the official win is what I mean. He shouldn’t leave the food on his plate unfinished

Like I said fight night, and got attacked for it.

He didn't get the W, I don't care how good he 'looked' if he failed to get the job done against a guy Spence took out in 8, years ago.

Maybe he should stop with the wild 'eye test' fight style and refine his craft instead of trying to appeal to the fan minority with flashy moves.

I wanted Errol Spence to fight the Keith Thurman that beat Ghost Guererro for the WBA WW title! The one that beat Luis Collazo! That "Keef!"

So the vulnerable one. Not the Keef that was sparking guys.

Just curious....


Since when did Alvarez EVER mention a possible fight with Spence? Like... ever?

That is fantasy, and even if it is a remote possibility, it is 2 years away. Using Canelo, whose last few fights have been at 168 or higher, as a bargaining chip for a 147 fight is just a bad look.

Thurman's last stoppage was Soto-Karass in 2013! Spence's pro debut was 2012! You look ****** right now! Stop, and go fix your face!

spence soiled himself again

spence is terrified of crawford and the drugs in texas are fantastic what was he smoking last night...70/30 in his favour hes not worth 20% hes a total coward.........

Spence knows Crawford isn't taking a 60/40 split.
Thats the PBC way of a duck. PBC will not risk
the belts Spence carries. No way. BUt!! Even if Craw
were to sign with PBC,he still would not get a shot at Spence.
The ONLY division they risk their champ is at 154. Otherwise
its one foregone conclusion fight after another. It's a weak way to do business and terrible for boxing.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Childish attacks deleted.

You're making my point.

Thurman was already declining by the time Spence was on the rise.

Fighting him in 2015 would have made no sense.

Wasn't long ago, I was one of those people wanting Spence to fight Keith Thurman! That was back in 2015! I wasn't crazy then, and i'm not crazy now! Boots is ready for Spence! Vergil is ready for Crawford! MAN UP!

When Spence called out Thurman in 2015, neither of them were world champions.

Currently, Spence is a unfied champion and Virgil and Boots haven't even faced a top ten fighter.

There is absolutely no comparison to the Spence/Thurman situation of 2015 and the Virgil/Boots situation with Spence.

Before you claim Thurman was world champion like so many others have here, he wasn't.

Floyd Mayweather was the WBA and WBC champion, Pacquiao the WBO, and Brook the IBF.

Thurman had the regular WBA belt, which is nothing but a mandatory position with a belt just so that the WBA can collect sanctioning fees.

Floyd was the WBA champ.

The funny thing is that Spence would probably be a tough fight for Canelo. I know it may sound crazy but look at who Canelo has struggled against vs who he’s looked good against.

People look at the size difference and assume it’s a mismatch but honestly it’s the smaller guys who have troubled Canelo most because the big guys don’t have the coordination. Alvarez slips and counters easily against big targets but he loses some of those advantages if Spence carries his current attributes to 160

Canelo would hurt Spence. Spence has a very tight jab and he likes to walk his opponents down - that won't work. At all. Versus Canelo.

Canelo has had Golovkin walk him down 24 rounds as well as countless other HOF fighters.

It's easy for Spence to walk someone down when he is taller, longer, and heavier but Canelo always fights under those conditions.

Spence has a great jab but Canelo hurts Errol en route to a decision win. Spence has too much heart to get stopped.

It's just conjecture by Spence though...Spence accused Crawford of using his name to gain publicity...Spence is doing the exact same thing with Canelo lol
