These dudes have the personality of a kitchen cabinet…. They need to learn from Floyd and them on how to sell a fight

Fight sells itself.

For those who have gone to a big fight weigh in before, how do you usually get those? Sold on Ticketmaster or something equivalent at some point before the fight?

They’re usually free. At least they were for the Spence fights I’ve gone to previously.

Don’t say that or you’d be viewed as a hater.

I mean I like both of these boxers but when I talk to non boxing fans they dont know neither of these guys name or would be interested in seeing them fight… thats the reality of the matter

You and I are in agreement but these ‘hardcore’ fans don’t want to accept that it’s not the super event we imagined it’d be. I’m happy because I want EJ to shut Bud’s fans up.

I'm press so I normally just walk straight in with my pass/wristband but I went to a few weigh ins where they just let everyone in free, you just have to find out the promotional agenda.

I think had Spence fought and beat Manny Pacquiao like he was supposed to this would be a far bigger fight in the general public's eye. He needed that passing of the torch moment to become a cross over star, but the detached retina ruined that.

Yeah you can see Spence was the “choosen” one to be Americas golden boy for the Post Floyd era.

Olympian
BFFs with Jerry Jones
Have Manny on his record
Beat all the top Welters of his Gen
Undisputed
“fantasy match” with Canelo

I can't think of a fighter with worse luck than him, honestly.

Yeah the trajctory for him was a gaurenteed HOF career, at this rate he is still solid if he can
1.undispute 147 by beating.Bud (he would have then legit cleared out his entire generation)
2. Unify 154
3. Get 1 belt at 160
4.Canelo fight

He does that then he still is HOF worthy imo

 

[UpAndComing]

Spence definitely seen this tweet from a year ago

Very odd comment

Crawford has better fundamentals
