Agree

He looks supremely confident, I think it's just showboating, I'm sure there are some bad intentions behind those smiles lol. I bet most peoples money is on Crawford, he is superb that's for sure!

Never been a big Spence fan but I have to say he is a solid boxer with one of the best left hands in the business, times it beautifully too, one of those could put Terrance away so it could lead to a very interesting fight for me

Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence one of the biggest fights in the last 20 years
This undisputed welterweight title clash will take place on Saturday, July 29. It is being held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The undercard will get underway from 1am BST, with the main event ring walks expected around 4am on Sunday morning UK time.

This truly is a super fight and everything that is right about this sport. Two unbeaten champions, both at their peak and both unbeaten, they know how to win and that's what makes them very special and this fight special, they don't come around too often fights like these

Makes a mockery out of those heavyweight bums and the politics and rightly so

The heavyweight division is a joke,Dubois get his eye socket smashed in by Joyce and now is fighting Usyk for the belts.AJ is fighting Whyte then wants Wilder if AJ gets caught its over within a round,I can't wait for this Spence vs Crawford fight

Well the Spence vs Crawford was a cracking fight,he was just too clever for Spence and his jab did the job.The angles that Crawford throws from and the power he can generate is quite scary,it doesn't even look like he has to throw big haymakers to ko you

Great performance from TC, superb

Spence was exposed by the champ but respect, he gave it his all until the stoppage. Thought the double jab was working well for him, unsettling Crawfords footwork but he stopped throwing it. Should have thrown the liver shot more often but Crawford was superb with the elbow blocks and counter too.

This game is about levels and Crawford showed he is one up against the rest, what a fighter ✊

JOSHUA FIGHT CANCELLED !!!!!!!!!
Dillian Whyte's fight against Anthony Joshua has been cancelled, after a random anti-doping test on Whyte returned "adverse analytical findings".
Nobody wanted to see it anyway

I have always been a fan of tyson fury right
from his early days when he was trying to do the Cassius Clay bit and get noticed and famous I thought he was a boxer with a boxing brain could fight with either hand and switch so easily but now !
I think he should be stripped as he is the one that through sheer greed has avoided the fights he should of made
and my biggest hope would be if this Francis Ngannou nobody lands a big bomb and sparks him

The gypsy king is out for the $. Can't blame him really. FN is going to get his ears boxed off

I agree though, the best should fight the best and the belts should make that happen. The sad side, boxing politics rules

He will fight Usyk

As for Usyk vs. Dubious, talking about farces. Still if DD lands he could easily spark Usyk, he needs to go in there, walk him straight down, put it on him, put that son of a bitch out, lol, out of there in 4 otherwise it's a one way contest, not that I care much anyway

For DD iits probably a chance he would never have otherwise

It's a bit unfair to call Francis nganou a nobody Gerry, he's right at the top of the MMA game. Yeah he's not a boxer, but he's not a nobody either. He has as much chance as any of the big lads ,he can bang with the best of them and it only takes one.. no, I don't think he will land it, but I didn't think wilder would land on fury either and he did a few times. Talk of fury being stripped is a bit daft when he doesn't actually have a mandatory at the moment.

He IS a nobody in the sport of boxing

if he wasnt about to fight fury no boxing fan would ever hear his name ! and yes Fury hasnt got a mandatory at the moment but he is sticking 2 fingers up to all the fight fans that want to see him make the fights that they want to see
Mauricio Sulaiman has stated the WBC may give him one soon but Im not holding my breath

just my personal opinion but I would love there to be rules about purse splits so stop all the greed

of course it would never happen BUT
60/40 to the winner ( they are both putting their lives on the line regardless ) would in my eyes be the best/fairest and if it was set in stone just think how much easier matches could be made
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
