Comments Thread For: Spence Released From Hospital, Charged With DWI

[Realizniguhnit]

Yes, 300K IS GREAT compared to the pathetic numbers Crawford's does on ppv. 50K for Postal and under 150K for Khan is a joke. Most sites, in fact, are reporting Spence-Porter did 300-350K buys. So in 2 ppv's Spence has done 660-710K and Crawford under 200K. Numbers don't lie. Key point being, Spence's ppv's are profitable unlike the financial bloodbath Grandpa Bob takes every time Crawford is on PPV.

Saying you don't care who's the A-side is just another way of admitting it's not Crawford lol. He needs to swallow his pride and accept his place as the B-side and get in line with all the other welterweights who want a crack at Spence.

Is Spence paying your bills or something dude because you're sounding like a real h0m0 right now going on and on about some ppv numbers..Tell me, exactly how does Spence's PPV buys benefit you? Get Errol jock out your mouth clown. You care more about this A side B side BS than Crawford does... an the only thing I want to see is the best fight the best.

He may have blew money but a lot of rich people blow money. 60% of professional athletes go broke but 1 thing about Floyd he always had the ability to make it back and with his investments he won't have to worry about going broke anymore.

Floyd never wasted time because he was always focused on his craft at the end of the day, Floyd's main problem was women but anyone who has a lot of women are going to have issues at some point.

He won't have to worry now; buying out his Top Rank deal, listening to Haymon, and staying on top of his game basically secured his next three generations.

Still, Floyd was making big money before even that, yet he was still running fight to fight.

I don't know about you but give me 6 Vodka and cranberry and I'm gonna be a little fked up myself.

He shouldn't be legally drunk and driving a car that can get up to about 200 MPH easily. Just a recipe for disaster.

A vodka and cranberry (nice choice; dabble with vodka pineapple on occasion myself) isn't generally one drink; never been a real bartender in life, but it sure looks like they put a hell of a lot more than a shot into the drink.

He wasn't smart to drive, full stop; hopefully he has a driver on call whenever he gets near where folks are drinking, whether he touches anything or not.

No different than Floyd hiring his security detail; cost of being in business

I still want to know why someone who broke no bones and supposedly only had face lacerations had to spend 8 days in the hospital.

More to the body than just bones; brain scan, MRI scans of the lymph nodes, make sure the organs are ok, and check for any ligament/tendon damage.

And some times, the medical staff wants to hold you extra to make sure

Lmao! This mofo got in a accident by himself. Horrible driver wouldn't trust spents with a Corolla no seat belts.

Yeah but I think Floyd always knew deep down he'd keep fighting anyway. Given the competition in his era, it was just too easy to pass up but it's important to remember Floyd is no where near the worst case, I don't think Floyd ever came to the point where he was going to file bankruptcy or anything as we've seen with other entertainers. He just blew money and didn't pay his taxes properly but even then he was smart enough to buy his house in Vegas cash.

Maybe a bit of hyperbole, but the numbers were definitely solid. Not even diehard PBC supporters were in any way portraying a fight with Porter as a "superfight" lol. I agree with you Lomo-Davis could do over 300K with Tank as the A-side.

I think it could do 300k regardless of who's the A-side but Tank's promoters won't allow the fight to happen while Loma is the bigger name. It's a much bigger fight down the road and Loma will be older.

A .15 BAC, for a man 180lbs (Spence is likely well lighter than that, but let's use that as the mark anyway), puts you at under 7 drinks.

7 shots, 7 beers, 7 cups of wine, or a combination of 7 from the three.

Now, I don't drink and drive (admittedly there was a night, years ago, where I did overdo it, ended up going to sleep in the back of my car, woke up still drunk at 4am, and carefully navigated the way back to my bed), but 7 beers putting someone out is quite light, lol.

You don’t know how long after his drinking that they did the the test. He could have sobered up a bit in that time.

Spence walks around at 180 so don’t say he’s way lighter lol.

Because he knew Danny and Angel were outside waiting for him...
