Even though we haven't heard any 'official announcement' yet, might be just sometime now as they might have been ironing out few things before going out in public.
And as mentioned, maybe the date and venue is one obstacles that they have to settled. The network will have to come out as the best place for this fight is, and then the date itself.. I think money wise and split, verbally they could have talk it down already. And we are going to be privilege to witnessed another great fight if this happens this year.
I agree with you. I even think this fight is now almost a deal but just a few things are being properly fixed before the official announcement.
In the first place, there's no other boxer that both Terence Crawford and Errol Spence should fight but between the two of them. Even the majority of boxing analysts and known personalities are throwing their respective opinion that the fight should happen no matter what.
This is a fight that has no excuses or reason to delay or what. We will surely see this fight happening this year. There's no doubt about that. Maybe they are not planning to hold it close to the date of one of the biggest fights also this year, the trilogy between Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin.
There's no any near boxers near their league in Welterweight, people and the fans of the respective boxers have anticipated for this and now it's about to happen, just few more weeks and maybe we will see any updates or final announcement about its date and place. I reckon this fight will be the most interesting fight this year, two heavy boxers with clean record will fight to be the undisputed champion.
