On second thought, if we don't see the fights we want to see it is probably because of him. I have been critical of these guys all seemingly wanting to avoid Spence. You can call out whomever you want but at the end of the day it is the manager/promoter/networks that have to put together fights. Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Keith Thurman, and Errol Spence all have the same manager in Al Haymon. They all fight on Showtime, what is stopping them. Danny Garcia is arguably the biggest draw in the division even without a title. He can make money fighting anybody and Haymon is in no rush to put him back in with any of the other 3. Keith is probably the 2nd biggest draw and is the current champ having defeated everybody except on the list except Spence. Spence is the IBF champ and a headache just waiting to happen for anybody. With Haymon's stable, he can milk it for a minute and save them from each other.

What is in the water in TX? All these aggressive, gun powder eating, to hell with a decision jokers. You have the Charlo brothers, Spence, and now this kid Regis Prograis at 140 looks to be a legitimate problem. I know he is from New Orleans but he started his boxing career and trains out of Houston. These jokers come in the ring simply to lay hands.
