So we can say that Spence is the A-sde and could be dictating the terms. But that should be fine with Crawford. What is foremost is that this fight is going to be made without any manager excuses on the side of Crawford. Because that has been the sticking point ever since, Bob Arum doesn't want to deal or wont allow Crawford face a PBC fighter. That is eliminate since he is managing his own career now.
Spence has nothing to lose if Crawford will choose not to make this fight happen, both are still undefeated but based on the number of belts, Spence has an edge and most of his opponents are quality opponents compared to Crawford. He should not be greedy here, be smart and take the chance even if he only gets 40% of the total purse or revenue.
Yes, you are right that mate, they are both undefeated and this fight will happen maybe the best fighter win and claim the belts. But there's no formal announcement yet for this fight maybe it will happen in the last month of this year.
Also I agree with you mate that Spencer must not be too much greedy for this fight cause if. He doo that for sure Crawford will use that as a big advantage wait for the timing and boom spence will loss.
If this fight won't materialized, it will be Crawford's loss as he needs Spence more than the latter needs him. But I certainly believe that this fight won't just remain a hype and eventually we can get some updates soon regarding to its date and place as well as the time, Crawford has been waiting for this and now Spence is answering. A 40% purse cut is already big on his behalf because he is now free agent unlike Spence who have promoter to share with.
