It's really time to make @ErrolSpenceJr- @terencecrawford. Neither has a due mandatory (often an excuse to not make a big fight) & both coming off wins weeks apart. Spence turns 31 in Jan. Crawford is 33. Perspective: Ray Leonard was 25, Tommy Hearns was 22 when they met to unify.
I'm unemotional about it because I've been down this road a million times with big fights that either didn't get (Kovalev-Stevenson) or got made past their sell-by date (Floyd-Manny). If @terencecrawford- @ErrolSpenceJr happens I'll be thrilled. If it doesn't life goes on. #boxing
I believe @terencecrawford & @ErrolSpenceJr want to fight each other but if so they need to tell their people make the fight & don't come to me with anything else. They also have to agree to a fair split. To me, you do it 45-45 & the winner gets the other 10%. REAL prizefighting.
Recent quote from @ErrolSpenceJr to me about @terencecrawford: “I don’t want to leave the division without fighting him because I don’t want that on my legacy -- people saying that’s the fight that never happened. Crawford is the most intriguing fight. That’s the legacy fight."
