    Spence beat Danny Garcia coming off an horrific car accident. Terrence beat a reduced Kell Brook after fighting a barely notable mean machine.

    Look idiots PBC has the leverage of investing in welterweight and creating a star through tough matchups. I know it’s fair and just to say Terence needs to switch sides, do some heavy lifting or convince Arum to let go of his ridiculous concessions.

    Terrence doesn’t get paid am excessive percentage to potentially and supposedly be a PBC spoiler and still stay at Top Rank.

    If ESPN wants to convince us this is not smart business then ESPN is going to need a lot more people and budget than Tim Bradley, Max Kellerman and Stephen A. Smith. ESPN should focus on controlling what it can and getting Teophemo in with some top names. Nobody cares about the Australia fight.

      Nope. Never.

      I said he doesn't DESERVE to fight Manny, and I said he's (and so are his fans) a hypocrite for blindly nodding in approval when his promoter tries to get Crawford to do a Spence call-out and he instead just wants Pacquiao.

        But still fresh off a loss.

        Spence fought Porter fresh off a win, fought Swift fresh off a win. That's the momentum he sounds like he wants to keep, thus why he says no Keef, and I agree with that strategy for greatness.

        Remember, one of the main criticisms against Manny before he fought Horn was how often he would fight guys coming off a loss.

          Then let Ugas get a crack at Crawford then.

            Manny still going to the hall of fame based on the fact he fought big names. Years from now people will forget about the catch weights and fighters coming off a lost. Fighters would fight coming off a lost all the time back in the 70s & 80s. This new era is so weird with these get busy fights. Just have the best fight the best. Anybody can have a bad night.

              Yes Ugas is very good and deserves a title shot for clearly beating Porter. Still can't believe the ref called that a slip when it was clearly a KD in the 12th round.

                No, they won't. Not unless you get rid of social media.

                  Ugas should get a shot at Spence, if Thurman is scared all of a sudden!

                    This is not about who is better at scheming and chess vs checkers. I thought boxing fans wanted to see the best fight the best and keep it moving. Canelo, Pacquiao, Mayweather and Anthony Joshua became big time draws because they took on all of the opponents. They didn’t play chess. They boxed.
