Re: Who will be the next opponent for Spence ?
Although Spence is a very risky fight for Pac it makes the most cent$ for Errol to build himself into more of a household name with a win over legendary Pac. Even in his early 40s, Pacquiao has enough of a name to boost PPV buys over 500,000!

I wonder if he could do more buys and household name-ism by fighting Jake PaulBest Coast wrote: ↑11 Dec 2020, 18:11 Although Spence is a very risky fight for Pac it makes the most cent$ for Errol to build himself into more of a household name with a win over legendary Pac.

Crawford ,and spence beats him
Re: Who will be the next opponent for Spence ?
Spence Winning is a Formality but doesn't Spence have to fight Kudratillo Abdukakhrov Next as ordered by the agreement?
The Exception is if he is in a Unification fight against Crawford or Pacquiao?
My understanding if it is not a Unification he has to fight Abdukakhrov or he will have to vacate his title, but Abdukakhrov is not good enough to be ducked so Spence won't vacate his title for what is a stay busy/pad the record type opponent who somehow became Mandatory by beating Collazo who is long past his prime.

Whoevere it is, they gonna get a whooping!
Re: Who will be the next opponent for Spence ?
I don’t see Crawford happening with Crawford at TR. So assuming that Spence fights one more at 147 it would probably be a Shawn Porter rematch since his the mandatory. That fight has attraction but nothing terribly exciting.
He might move up to 154. He cuts a lot to be at 147. Jermell Charlo would be his only big PPV seller. Would a PPV with Liam Smith sell? I’d buy it. Julian Williams is a PPV.
If he moves up, in my opinion, Spence will take an easy first fight at 154. And can we really blame him? Dude has been through a lot.
Of the PBC stable of 154 pounders, based on their website, in my opinion these are the most likely for his first fight at 154 (and would be awesome on Fox or Showtime):
1. Kyrone “Shut it Down” Davis
2. Domonique Dolton
3. Austin Trout
Less likely but also possible:
4. Tony Harrison
5. Jarret Hurd
6. Erickson Lubin
