He said, “Line ‘em up. Line ‘em up. Y’all already know who to talk to. The one-person y’all got to talk to is Al Haymon. You have one person to talk to and we get this fight on the road. So, they already know; after I put on this great show come December fifth, whoever else [is] in my way, let’s get it.”

This comes after there have been several rumors of the potential Crawford-Spence fight. ‘Bud’ has already had his say about the fight, and now Spence has followed suit. However, Spence’s response is clearly more positive than Crawford’s.
