I’m not a huge fan of these types of fights because boxers don’t fight enough to warrant it. If fighters fought 4-5 times a year, I have no problem with these types of fights thrown in there. Spence has multiple good fights to be made at welterweight. If he can’t make the weight anymore, he can fight at 154 and there are some good fights for him there.
I get that it’s all about money so I can’t fault him for that, but it’s just unfortunate. If they were the same size, I would favor Spence, but Canelo is so much bigger and Spence’s style wouldn’t do well against a big fighter like Canelo.
