And even then, we've watched this brotha carry his power thru every weight class he's been in. Who's to say it wouldn't be worse?

Superstar
Shakur plays the villain role well...cause he easy to hate and runs his mouth...him and teo should be bigger then they are but nobody expects their promotional company to actually promote them.
They trying to pull the same corny narrative they did with bud with him...."oh PBC blackballing him" when all them 135 belts were at top rank at one point Tank ain't complain about being blackballed he went his way and made himself a superstar....if you don't like your status then put the work in instead of crying about it.
Shakur ain't even well known like he think he is....they put his cancelled fight with frank martin on a damn thursday and hoped F1 fans would also buy tickets for that fight....but he think he can demand 75/25

I've been a Spence fan since day 1. One of the things I've always said about him is that he fights with "effective aggressiveness" better then most fighters.
But I've also said that his style is the equivalent of a straight line and that he'd always have issues with a counterpunching with power.

The results may very well be the same but I won’t be staring at a drained, ghoulish looking figure in the ring. Bud may be concerned if he’s looking to keep the rematch at 147.
If he wants to jump up and cash out at 168, then he should just say that
if not, PBC volunteers like myself will assume he’s uneasy about giving Spence a shot at 154

I really don’t understand these new boxers today, man. Shakur wouldn’t take 25% for all the fukking belts, but he wants Frank to take 25% for a vacant title. If Frank was SUPPOSED to take to 25% then you were SUPPOSED to take 25% to fight Haney, but you didn’t.
On another note, Spence gotta feel played. Breh gave up every concession to make the fight happen, gets beat down, activates the rematch clause, and I imagine he hoped Crawford would be like yeah, we can do it at 154. Hell, you’re the reason the first fight happened….
“147.”
Bud knows at 154 Spence is an issue which is why he won’t do it.
He knows at 168 he has no expectation to win and he can SNAC his way to a competitive cash out against Canelo, probably with limited testing which Canelo prefers. He can’t lose even if he loses. “I took the challenge to do something no else has done, hats off to Canelo” etc.
All he has to do is make the fight at 154 to prove me wrong
Why do y'all Spence fans want the rematch so badly knowing that it would only be 4 months after the worst beating of his career where he has no time to physically or mentally heal?
Y'all don't love him?
Danny Garcia fight with Spence is looking funny in the light. Someone review his bank accounts for suspicious payments
Might be something more to it when Crawford says you PBC fighters can go back to fighting yourselves

The whole fight Danny looks like he is sparring someone he is not suppose to go too hard on
Bud is PBC. Al gave him the biggest payday he’s ever had, and he’s trying to cash out two other PBC fighters—Canelo and Charlo
Thank you, Al Haymon
If he makes the leap and beats Canelo he’d be in my top 15 … but beating the most hyped guy of the era doesn’t make you GOATBud is PBC. Al gave him the biggest payday he’s ever had, and he’s trying to cash out two other PBC fighters—Canelo and Charlo
Thank you, Al Haymon
We saw Mayweather take him to school, all the sudden he was too young then but then they’re going to say he’s too old and past his prime to fight the young guys
We gotta learn to just watch the fights, appreciate the sport and drop the narratives

By spence making every concession you mean he finally gave bud a fair deal?....you acting like he took the lower split or something. It was 50-50 like it always should have been. If anything bud walking away the first time got Errol a better deal. He was about to get no guarantee. But bud stood firm and got them both 10 million guarantees.I really don’t understand these new boxers today, man. Shakur wouldn’t take 25% for all the fukking belts, but he wants Frank to take 25% for a vacant title. If Frank was SUPPOSED to take to 25% then you were SUPPOSED to take 25% to fight Haney, but you didn’t.

“147
When bud said without you this fight wouldn't have happened. He meant about Errol finally calling Al and forcing him to make the fight. Something he should've done 4 years ago. Bud called Spence and broke down how PBC was doing him dirty. Then Spence called PBC and told them to make the fight or he's sitting out. That's not a "concession", that's just doing the right thing.
The contract states that the winner will choose the weight of the rematch. You can't agree to something then demand something else. Especially after you get absolutely annihilated. Most of the time when guys get dominated like that they're not even allowed a rematch because it's so laughable. Bud can really just walk away altogether if he wants. What's gonna happen?....he loses his belts?....he pays a fine?....anything he pays will be chump change compared to what he'd get facing canelo. Bud really doesn't owe Errol anything except a thank you. And he already gave him that.

Exactly, don't p*ssyfoot around the shyt, just say what's on your mind, clearer path to understanding.

did Spence have plot armor when he gave in to all of Crawfords demands to make the fight? Don't even try to go down that route breh.
