“I think Pacquiao is willing to unify, he’s fighting Amir Khan and Khan is with Al Haymon,” Spence told BoxingScene.com.

Spence also can see a fight with unified 140 pound champion, Terence Crawford (30-0, 21 KO’s).

“Terence Crawford is a good fighter, great skills,” stated Spence. “I think it’d be a good fight for 147. It won’t happen now but I think down the road that would be a really good fight.”

Love Spence, he is also among my favorites (from ww plenty of fighters are btw) too but Crawford is among my few liked fighters who I separate from the rest. It all depends how Crawford can transition into ww if he won't be too small and he will have the power at least of an average ww I think he could beat Spence.

But this is for the future and highly hypothetical. Who knows if Spence even gonna compete in ww 2 years from now, he is a huge ass welter, I can easily imagine him going to 154 in the next 1-2 years and Crawford doesn't want to go up yet, so...

There has been a lot of speculation on who Bradley will face next. There were rumors of a potential showdown against former four-division champion Miguel Cotto (40-5, 33 KOs) late last year, but an actual fight hasn't came to fruition.

Bradley has remained very patient as he waits for the right fight.

"I am interested in any fight that makes sense. That is a fight that makes sense. A Cotto fight would be big but at the end of the day I say, 'yeah' but it's not up to me," he explained.

Cotto last fought in November 2015 when he lost an unanimous decision to Canelo Alvarez. He was scheduled to return to the ring last month as part of an HBO Pay-Per-View headliner in Texas, but his set opponent James Kirkland pulled out of the fight with an injury which canceled the whole event.

Cotto is looking to return in the coming months, with his team actively searching for a new opponent who is worthy enough for HBO to approve.

Bradley for the record, is still very interested in facing Cotto and has previously stated that he would be willing to meet the Puerto Rican at a catchweight between 147 and 154 pounds.

"I think it would be fun. I think it is a fight the fans wouldn't mind watching. 'Cotto if you are looking for a dance partner, holla baby. Let's go,'" Bradley stated.

Him and Pacquiao both just trying to cash out.....they are now irrelevant in discussions about Welterweights today. I put them in the same category as Cotto and JMM: "Retired but don't know it yet"

Arum isn't letting Pacquiao anywhere near Spence

Khan is looked at as an easy target, so Arum is comfortable with putting Manny in there. The only real threat Arum wants Manny to face is Crawford.

That boy Spence would put a hurt that old man

Only reason you're saying this is cause Spence put a hurting on Buscuits and made him cry in sparring..

Arum dont even want Pac to face Khan.. He wanted to get that EASY money down there in Australia..

Pac just put up a pole for the fans to chose his next fight and Khan won the poll.. So we gonna go handle that..

Why would @King P be mad that the JMW version of Spence put hands on the lightweight version of AB?



He's not a stan of AB at all


Your AB hate is getting out of control breh.....you're gonna need to see a doc about this

Even your edit doesn't make sense, because your original post says:

Arum dont even want Pac to face Khan.. He wanted to get that EASY money down there in Australia..

and in your edit, it says:

...which are 2 totally different thoughts, and led to you hating on AB again regardless instead of addressing P's post directly or going at his fighters




And by the way, Im dapping it because Ima fan of Spence, and Truth DOES beat Pacquiao, just like I've always said Swift would, Thurman would, Brook would, AB would, etc. I don't think any TR WW's playing "cash me out" want it with any of the top PBC Welters currently. I'd even favor Shawn Porter over Pac and Bradley at this point also

That Spence/Crawford fight at 147 is gonna be nice when it happens...I give it 3 years to marinate though.

Errol need to lay off that herb though if he thinks he is going to ever be in a ring with Manny Pacquiao. That shyt is never ever ever gonna happen.

Be "dehydrated" in a weight class where you don't have to make weight brehs

All seriousness...WBC can fuk out my face with this rematch...i hope Wilder's side file's a protest with the WBC and make Stiverne fight Ortiz or Pulev in a eliminator so he can earn this shyt.

One single fight with a journeyman who was unranked by the WBC, in the last two years since he lost the title (which he supposedy looked like shyt in) is enough to secure a #1 mandatory slot?

I still don't understand how the fukk Stiverne ended up dehydrated to the point he had to go to the hospital. What the fukk was he doing in camp? And why was no one monitoring his dumb ass?

And this is the most unnecessary rematch in boxing since Manny/Bradley 3. Stiverne did nothing in that first fight and he aint done shyt since to warrant a shot at the belt unless there was a rematch clause that everybody forgot about until right now.

First off, I didn't know that was you that wrote the recaps on FTESWL breh...good stuff


Secondly, I agree with you and P, Arum aint gonna let Spence, who swings bricks, in the ring with the much smaller Pacquiao...Spence might walk him down and get him out of there within 9.


Pacquiao isn't a "mover", he doesn't move his head except when he's throwing the straight right, he doesn't have the ability to fight off the back foot, so he would always remain in reach of Spence who possesses a half of foot (almost) reach advantage on Pacquiao. Pacquiao will have the speed advantage, but due to his age, his defense being about average, I dont see his chin holding up if we're being honest about a matchup vs Spence


I think if Spence faces Pacquiao, he ends his career that very night for good. Arum will not allow that to happen......unless it's Crawford doing the career ending

Some people say Jermell Charlo might be too much too soon for Lubin but I'm calling it now, if they fight this year Lubin is gonna beat him. I was never really impressed with Jermell, imo he lost to Martirosyan and he struggled big time with John Jackson too before the KO. Lubin feels like a special talent and I think he's gonna beat Jermell even at this age. I know that his competition wasn't as high as some of Charlo's and he doesn't have the advantage in experience but Lubin was just more impressive to me even against low tier opponents than Jermell. We will see this year hopefully.

I think Lubin is ready for the Lesser Charlo too.
