Spence v Crawford
This seems to have slipped under the radar.
the two current best undefeated welterweights about to kick-off for all the titles. Two fighters at the top of their game put in the same ring. Boxing might be onto something here . ,...

I disengage, I turn the page.

What a really good fight. Not a great fight, by any stretch. But a Good fight that I'd almost forgotten that boxing could produce.

I disengage, I turn the page.

It's really just a question of being dumb enough to get caught these days.
It was a totally pointless fight anyway.

Why don't the big boys just agree to fight each other at least two times each and then they can all retire.
We have already done Fury v Wilder 1, 2 and 3 and Joshua v Usyk 1 and 2, so let's get it on with Joshua v Fury and Joshua v Wilder, Fury v Usyk and Usyk v Wilder.

Loads of money, everybody happy.

Usyk V Dubois. Does anyone even care about the heavyweight division any more ? Another bore-fest, zzzzzzzzzz

Didn't see it but reports said Smith had hurt his ankle, or leg, or something?
Being cynical it sets up a decider and another payday for all involved.

I think he kind of did in the after fight conference.

However, I do think it's actually true.

He spoke about cutting three stone as well affecting his energy levels....but I have less sympathy for that. It's his job to make weight and if he's ever more than a stone and a half overweight from his fighting weight then that's totally his fault.....they are called professionals for a reason.
