Why are Spence and Wilder being attacked on here?

[Sledgeweather17]

Wilder ducking Luis Ortiz, Spence, instead of being active and fight some good competition "Lamont Peterson" Choose to be inactive against Kell Brook, Spence can still be a mandatory even if fighting for others.

First of all, the fact you mention Lamont is already proof that you an irrational Spence hater who just wanted to throw a name there to make Spence look cowardly.

Every Tom, Dick, and Harry knows that Lamont Peterson already ducked Spence. Spence fought Bundu in an eliminator for the mandatory spot, but that was only because Panaronamov, Lamont Petersien, and a host of other fighters who were ranked above Bundu (Bundu was 8th) refused to fight Spence for one reason or another, so the IBF kept going down the list until #8 Bundu agreed to fight Spence.

Secondly, if Spence took an interim fight, you would probably be the first one to come here and use that as an excuse for Brook to further delay the fight, or even to spin said interim bout as Spence trying to get away from fighting Brook or delay fighting Brook.

What Spence did was the right move. Brook has no escape route, and please, if you gonna hate at least come up with a somewhat logical reason to hate.

I agree with you about Wilder he isn't really that hyped anymore but Spence is super hyped by everyone a lot of people have him on their P4P lists already.

Not a lot, but I don't blame them. Did you see this guy go to work? A thing of beauty, ain't it? I'll never forget that left hook (or the one before that) to close the Algieri fight.

Algieri offers no resistance he was no threat to Spence I want to see Spence in with someone who has more to offer than algieri.

They are not p4p fighters and not even heavily hyped on here at all or by boxing media..So why is anyone slamming them at all? Sure we would love to see Wilder fight better competition...And all we ask is for Spence to get his earned title shot..(fighting for a vacant title proves nothing)

Spence is.

Wilder gets attacked because he talks about fighting cats like Wlad, Povetkin, and Fury but fights ticket scalpers and shoe shiners, Spence gets zero hate on here, he gets nothing but love lol, you're trippin like when Manny thought his shoulder excuse would hold up.

Wilder is being slammed because he has fought nobodies and continues to nobodies. Spence dont get no heat, it's Brook for stalling the divison and keeping a more exciting prospect waiting for a title shot whilst he faces over matched opponents and fights against middle weights he and his team know he ain't a hope in hell of winning against.

Cut the shyt you know why Wilder is being slammed.

This.

If Spence signed an interim fight Brook would almost immediately take one, potentially delaying the fight another 7 months !

Why does Larry start threads like this when he has spent most of his time on boxingscene doing the same thing? Or does he not see how it's the same thing?
