Spence tweeted, “Fight not going get made on here … it sound good, [but the] only time I hear yo shit is social media…don’t act like a boss now, like he don’t handle yo shit. We told yo handler Bob what it take to make it happen … I don’t choke off smoke dude.”

  • Spence needs a proofreader on social media. This makes him look like a total moron.

    • Skip the proofreader, Spence needs to understand the value in vehicle safety using a seatbelt and learning how to properly drive a car.

    • It’s called slang you moron and the way he worded it is targeted at a person who can understand it perfectly. A Punk azz like you doesn’t have a clue about how some men covey anger, arrogance, dominance, threats and throwing down the gauntlet in this short hand so you turn into a prissy school marm. Hilarious!

    • It probably wouldn’t have the same nastiness to it if it was written in perfect grammar. They are talking trash not writing a paper for English class.

  • These two are both ghetto and by acting that way they both think they are the boss. It should be embarrassing to them.

    • You eat Connor McGregor’s excrements and excretions when he talks his Irish slang and use some of it as a catch phrase “you’ll do fookin nutin!” etc, but black slang between two black fighters makes you pull on your petticoats! Bigoted cowards!

    • Right! They act like fighters or something! I expect more from our elected officials! Wait! My bad, I thought this was Fox News. Carry on.

  • Oh brother, here we go! Cheap smack talking to get the fans going! Give me a break! Cut to the chase and let’s get it on……

  • Crawford had a chance to fight all the top welterweights he showed loyalty to the wrong team Top Rank dead end, make a uturn buy your contract out and make a move like Manny.

    • Who has made more money? Spence? or Crawford? Hmm..
      Who did you say signed with the wrong team?

  • Omg. I jus commented on Crawford being hood. And the hood jus came out of Spence. Wow. Deception. Spence appears to be mannered up and well above this.. guess not. Let them both fight so we can all get passed this thug crap.

    • “Hood?” Soooo you would rather pay to see a couple of stiff (pause!) country club chaps fighting? No one has ever won a single round on “manners.”

  • I think Spence beats Crawford cause Crawford was knock down by a unknown Lithuanian from his last fight imagine what Spence could do? Crawford is in big trouble he better not fight Spence!!

  • Crawford is the man at welterweight. Spence is still hiding behind Al Haymon for a reason.

  • Sounds like team Spence has/will price(d) themselves out or made it near impossible with
    reaching demands

  • Spence maybe you shouldn’t act like a boss. You are overrated. How you are a top P4P best when your split win over Porter was contested and you couldn’t knock out a much smaller Garcia. You won’t rematch Porter, and you won’t fight Crawford because your obviously pricing yourself out.

    • It don’t matter; they have the money and in this time and day, money is everything.At least I mean for about 95% of people. It buys love, trouble and mostly anything you can think of. So, reading and/or writing don’t even matter with the kind of money they make/have.

  • I used to have doubts about Crawford but his last fight really showed me what he was capable of. In the early rounds his opponent was doing fine at the pace Crawford was going. Crawford must have said to himself ” the hell with this” and stepped up the pace and aggression . His opponent couldn’t keep up and was stopped.

  • My feeling is that Spence makes a mistake by going straight into a Crawford fight. That accident was serious and he was incredibly lucky. Take a relatively easy tune-up fight in May/June and then look for Crawford later in the year. Crawford can battle Porter in the meantime.

  • Bunch of guys who’ve only seen “the hood” on television talking about who’s acting “hood.” Funny shit

  • What ever is said or not said, this is a fight that needs to happen.This is what real boxing is about, not guys fighting once a year, or promoters not even mentioning the fighters from other promoters. Facts are, at this point in time, there are 3 welters that have a right to fight for an undisputed title. They are Crawford, Pacman. Spence, There are others that deserve a shot, but these 3 are really at the top of that division. And Spence at this point is an unknown, because only Spence knows how he really is after the accident. I think he needs a couple of C or B class fighters to see if he is completely healed and can handle them.
