9/28 PBC on FOX PPV: Errol Spence vs Shawn Porter (WBC/IBF Welterweight Title unification)

Man, ain’t nobody trying to see Danny versus Spence . Hopefully, that shyt falls through. I’m not a PBC hater by any stretch, but some of these fights be pure bullshyt. We need Spence versus Pac/Crawford.

Haymon not letting him fight who he wants. He wants Manny, Crawford, and apparently JRock. Can't get his manager to even begin discussions on those because a deal already made.

Spence gonna whoop Garcia

I really don't even want to see it at this point, Danny is flat footed and sits on that left hook too much it's not really an interesting fight besides the fact that I kinda think Spence and Danny low key don't like each other(they always throwing little shots at each other) so it may be a good one cause of the bad blood but not really a fight I'd wanna see. I'd rather see Spence fight Thurman over Garcia.

i dont see crawford being able to get dirty and gritty with porter the same way spence was able to. and since porter is a big enough financial draw to get arum's attention, that fight might happen next

Love Spence. I'm going to review this fight again, but I still have Brook beating Porter the cleanest, and that was an undefeated Porter.Spence probably swayed the judges and everyone else with that KD. Without it more people would be saying draw or Porter win.

Whoever said Porter would be easy work for Spence or anyone is a casual boxing fan. Porter is cut from the old school cloth of pressure/awkward fighters who would give anyone, no matter how talented, a hard fight.(Modern Examples: Darnell Boone,Sakio Bika) Like I mentioned before, I thought Brook beat Porter the cleanest, and I still only scored the fight a 7-5 win for Brook.

Now Spence can rematch Porter or fight Garcia/Thurman. But I rather him fight Pac or Crawford next.(closer to having one unified WW Champ) I'm not here to get into politics or fanboying for certain promoters/advisers. They just need to get the fight done and make boxing consistently great again.

And Goosen with the snarky reply : "you pretty much covered all the possibilities right here" At some point, Thurman goes wild and says "I have Porter 5-0 up til now" and Lewis goes with some "You can't have a winner as they are two fighters here" Like, I understood what he was trying to convey but that sounded so sloppy man.

I'm in a personal war with Lewis as a commentator and I feel like his amateurish takes actually ruins the content I'm watching. Roy, Tarver, Malignaggi are light years ahead of him in this. Not only in terms of accuracy in the analysis but also in delivery. Lennox permanently sounds like he's looking for his words and when he finds them, his takes sound incomplete. And you can tell Goosen is sometimes gritting his teeth at some of the stuff Lennox is saying but he's keeping stuff to himself. When the two first started, Goosen was always trying to correct him but he toned that down heavily as the tension was sometimes palpable. The chemistry is less bad now but this allows Lennox to be unchecked and that's worse. Lennox one of the greats in the ring no doubt but there is no objective reason for him to be commenting. None. And before anything, yes I'm hating

I think Goosen is terrible too

Crawford would shut me up if he could beat Porter. I knew Spence had the strength to not get bullied or roughed up too bad by Porter, Crawford I aint so convinced about, you can look at him and see he isn't physically strong like that and he hasn't ever fought a relentless fighter like Porter. He could make a statement with that fight. Granted and I will keep saying this, I highly doubt Crawford would ever attempt to fight Porter the way Spence did for those very reasons. Bud would stay at length the whole fight and fight off his jab. Which it seemed like Spence at times gave no fukks about even trying to establish a jab last night.

I dont want to seem like I'm some fukking Crawford hater..that's bullshyt. Crawford is great but he needs to FACE some real guys next year. There is just no more justifying it..Spence is facing contenders and champions..top rated ones while a Canelo cherry picks and Crawford is fighting MEAN MACHINE..he's showing animated Twitter emojis last night yet has no good fights even on the horizon? That's crazy.

like I said...its political. even more now than ever before. thats the game. he will be frozen out of any PBC matchups.

Nobody is slandering Bud bro, all nikkas is saying is that Bud is being hyped up to be the best welterweight and he hasn't beaten a single elite welterweight, not one. Arguably he hasn't even beaten an above average welterweight. All we are saying is if he wants to hold the crown we need to see him in action. Spence done beat some good fighters now, we've seen him in a war, we've seen him box, we've seen him in hostile territory and come out on top yet all we keep hearing is Bud this Bud that but his recent accomplishments don't warrant the hype he is getting. He needs to prove himself at 147.

Bud fans are getting to be worse than the Beyhive with they fandom. You can't even call out some obvious shyt or question him or even say he has flaws without people jumping down your damn throat about it.

I am a Bud stan here but I am objective. Spence is #1 WW and I been saying this for quite some damn time. We seen the videos though...we KNOW Bud wants Errol but that shyt just aint happening any time soon. thats the way it is. its the reason why we never got to see prime Kovalev vs Stevenson, which is a damn shame.

We already posted the scorecards...Spence was ahead even without the knockdown. He won like 8 rounds..its just hit alot and they mixed it up but Spence came out better and landed cleaner most of the time.

a Crawford - Porter fight looks much different than Spence. take Broner for instance....its hard to inflict damage on him because of his style and his defense. He doesnt move his hands tho and thats why its easy for most guys to beat him on points. Broner couldve beaten Porter but didnt move his hands enough and he put him on his ass worse than Errol did. Crawford is boxer-puncher with good defense, ala Broner except he is much better especially when moving his hands and making adjustments. if Porter tries to bum rush Crawford he'd get picked apart because Crawford will make him miss and make him pay where as Errol wanted to engage him. Not that one is better than the other, just the style changes the look of the fight.

Man, ain’t nobody trying to see Danny versus Spence . Hopefully, that shyt falls through. I’m not a PBC hater by any stretch, but some of these fights be pure bullshyt. We need Spence versus Pac/Crawford.

Let's stop worrying about the next Spence fight..when is Crawford gonna fight someone legit again?

Breh, you’re on some scorched earth shyt in this thread . You know I’m one of the biggest Spence fans on this whole damn forum, right? I don’t think anyone at 147 can beat him.

Pacquaio versus Spence is about a marketing bonus - Pacquaio versus Mikey Garcia is a nice way for Mikey to prove that he can hang at 147. As technically gifted as he is I don’t think he has a shot against Porter - he would bulrush him, work him against the ropes with pivots and use his style to keep Mikey off balance the whole fight


Crawford versus Spence isn’t in anyone’s best interest right now, and is only suggested by the shortsighted fans who want their fantasy match - in reality, Crawford needs to campaign for that fight so they can build it’s market value

Mayweather/Pacquiao was a 9 figure fight because both men were household names, figures in the sporting world that extended beyond the lexicon of casual boxing fan


Crawford nor Spence are household names - they have no reason to cash out on what will be their biggest fight. Mayweather’s fight with Pacquaio didn’t come after a fight in which he made $2 million. Spence and Porter made $2 million for this fight, there is no justification for making Spence/Crawford now

crawford needs to fight porter. bud is in danger of becoming irrelevant
