Comments Thread For: Spence Says If Crawford Fight Doesn't Happen Now, It Never Will Happen

[Combat Talk Radio]

How could this fight still be in the "if" stage? If fans are willing to pay, why the holdup?

Remember - one of these guys is on record as saying, "60-40 to me or NO FIGHT!!!"

I would love to see Stanionis vs. Thurman! Would be great as a co-main event!

Stanionis vs Boots is cool for me.

[The Old LefHook]

I no longer care whether those cherry picking halfwits fight or not.

Stanionis vs Boots is cool for me.

Boots' next fight will be for a title! I think both Spence & Crawford move up! I want to see Thurman fight a live dog! Stanionis or Boots! MAN UP!

I'm not a big Crawford fan, but he would beat boots, he isn't ready for the top dog just yet.

Red - The trinket that Stanionis has?

What are you talking about? Alot of people are looking for this fight because it’s two undefeated champions fighting to be undisputed in the welterweight division. Something that has not happened in a long time. The fight that people don’t mind but don’t really care about is canelo vs ggg 3.

Speak for yourself, I care about Alvarez vs. Golovkin as well as Spence vs. Crawford.

Who cares!!!!

these fools acting like this is the fight of the century, some earth breaking news..

Folks genuinely are not checking for this fight nor demanding it..

if the fight happens, ok cool, no big deal.

I find this perspective very bizarre for a boxing forum. Every time I pick up my phone I am hoping for the news. I just need the announcement, Vegas October 22nd, and I will be booked within the hour.

The problem with these 2, is they think this match up is on the PAC vs Mayweather type of magnitude and want to get paid like that, when it's nowhere near that. Especially on the Crawford side, he's never sold more than 150k in ppv, this fight still sells, but realistically it does somewhere between 500-700k. 12-15 million purse for Spence, and 10-12 million for Crawford is what they should be getting and expecting, anything more should be tied to ppv sales percentage. And showtime and other media needs to stop calling this the biggest fight in boxing, it's not, it's the best match up in boxing, not the biggest fight, Canelo vs pretty much anyone is the biggest fight in boxing, especially when you start talking about Canelo vs Charlo or Benavides those fights would do much more business, believe it or not, GGG vs Canelo will do more money than Crawford vs Spence.

700k is a stretch Wilder and Fury didn't even do that much and Wilder is a superstar in the states.
