Comments Thread For: Spence: Pacquiao Fight Is Up To Him; I Like Ugas, He's A Real Fighter - I Don't Know About Thurman

[NC Uppercut]

Open question: Is Pacquiao AVOIDING Spence or Crawford? Is it time for Pac to step up and fight them? They all hold 147 belts. Pac fought Thurman after Thurman looked terrible in tuneup after coming off 2yr layoff with shoulder injury. Algieri, Horn, Matysee,Vargas,Clotty,Rios were all C listers when Pac fought them.

I would not be surprised if Pac vacated the WBA and rode off into the sunset. Saltwater can only keep you going so long

I wouldnt mind a Ugas vs Spence fight, I think Spence beats and destroys Ugas but thats just opinion we still have to see the fight. Ugas has put himself into the conversation by beating the fighters and looking good doing so and also looking good in controversial defeats.

Waste of time. Spence is on a paper chase. Pac and then Crawford and then Canelo. After that he's retiring.

[Removed Now]

Let Thurman beat Ugas first, or just fight Ugas! Don't give Thurman a shot unless he beats Ugas, Porter, or Crawford! Make him earn it, just like you did beating Brook in the UK!

Thurman already beaten Porter. Let him get a crack at the belts.

Pac said he will only fight with a crowd. Pac is also per-occupied with politics and is old as f*** so I wouldnt be surprised if he never fights again.

Pac's people are talking with PBC about Spence fight. Pac needs the $$ because of his old tax issues and is looking to cash out. That's why after kicking Floyd's back in for fighting Mcgregor,all of a sudden he wants a Mcgregor fight now. Also, for the right $$Pac will fight in bagdad with 2 people watching. Lol.

Thurman should be calling out Ugas. He needs to stop trying to cut in front of the line. He lost his last fight and needs to earn his title shot.

In all honesty the fight most if not all want is Spence-Crawford. When Spence doesn't mention his name and when Crawford jumps on social media claiming he's tired of chasing Spence though he's been chasin Pacquiao for 7 years now, it feels like ducking and its aggravating. But I think October 2021 is the date to watch on this. Its one of the biggest fights in boxing and while I think Haymon and crew are guilty of letting things over marinate and put on events a little too late missing the window to capitalize (see Mayweather-Pacquiao) I think its good business to cut Arum out and keep this fight in house with having Crawford sign with PBC. Also we need a live gate for this one. The only problem I see is Crawford may go to Hearn.

Now I will say I dont want to see another Spence- Porter fight. Thurman is ok but the guy doesnt fight enough and I'd rather see him fight Crawford anyway. Ugas would be ok because he is a good fighter and he's got a belt. Pacquiao also has a strap and is the cash cow for as long as he's there though I'd rather see Pacquiao fight Garcia just because the question of him being smaller and 42 will be used as an excuse for either Errol or Bud. But with fights on the table with Ugas and Pacquiao and even Thurman, Spence is building a resume of taking on the top in the division. Crawford better catch up quick and get that resune at 147 better if he wants to claim A-side or 50/50. Hell just look at the purses for the last opponents and that will tell you who's A and B. Some good opponents for Bud would be: Porter, Thurman, Ortiz Jr, Ennis

Ducks Crawford but calls out a small 42 year old.

Yeah.

Pac has been 147 fighter for damn near 10yrs so how can u say he's smaller? Do u mean shorter?
