特伦斯·克劳福德重申:与小埃罗尔·斯宾塞的战斗不会发生

特伦斯·克劳福德在与同为次中量级拳王的小埃罗尔·斯宾塞的一场可能的联合比赛中加倍努力。

这位世界拳击组织次中量级冠军在周六的维吉尔·奥尔蒂斯和莫里斯·胡克的比赛中明确表示，不败的拳击手之间潜在的对决是不会发生的。

“我甚至再也不担心埃罗尔·斯宾塞了，”克劳福德在德州沃斯堡迪基斯体育馆举行的奥蒂兹-胡克拳赛之前对DAZN的克里斯·曼尼克斯说。“我已经告诉所有人，对我来说，战争已经成为历史。我不再担心埃罗尔·斯宾思了。

“这场战斗已经过去了。”

在同一场采访中，克劳福德(37胜0负，28次击倒对手)似乎也否认了下一轮对阵奥尔蒂斯(17胜0负，17次击倒对手)的可能性。

“我只是一笑了之，”克劳福德说。“现在，我在做更大更好的事情。谁知道未来会怎样?如果维吉尔赢了，也许我能和他好好玩玩。”

好吧，不仅在星期六晚上赢了，他在他年轻职业生涯中最严峻的考验中也赢了。随着信心的增强，奥尔蒂斯利用这个机会表达了他想要夺取克劳福德王冠的愿望。

“我希望有这样的机会，”奥提兹在胜利后说。“克劳福德可能是世界上体重排名第一的拳击手，绝对是前两名，所以如果他们给我这个机会……我看着你，伙计，我看着你。”如果你想让这事发生，我非常愿意。

“我不在乎我是否准备好了，”他补充说，“我想要这场比赛。”

除了克劳福德，斯宾塞也出席了迪基体育场。

Terence Crawford doubled down on moving on from a potential unification bout with fellow welterweight titleholder Errol Spence Jr.

The WBO welterweight champ made it clear at the Vergil Ortiz-Maurice Hooker fight Saturday that the potential showdown between the undefeated pound-for-pound fighters isn’t going to happen.

“I’m not even worried about Errol Spence anymore,” Crawford told DAZN’s Chris Mannix before the Ortiz-Hooker fight at the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. “I already told everybody that fight is history for me. I’m not thinking or worried about Errol Spence anymore.

“That fight is behind me.”

During the same interview, Crawford (37-0, 28 KOs) also seemed to dismiss the possibility of facing Ortiz (17-0, 17 KOs) next.

“I just laugh at it,” Crawford said. “Right now, I’m on bigger and better things. Who knows what the future may hold? Maybe me and Vergil may get it on … if he wins.”

Well, not only did Ortiz win Saturday night, he won emphatically in the stiffest test of his young pro career. With growing confidence, Ortiz used the moment to express his desire for a crack at Crawford’s crown.

“I would love that opportunity,” Ortiz said after his victory. “Crawford is possibly the No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer in the world, definitely top two, so if they give me that opportunity … I’m looking at you, Bud, I’m looking at you. If you want to make this happen, I’m more than willing to do it.

“I don’t care if I’m ready or not,” he added, “I want that fight.”

Oscar De La Hoya backed his young charge with the following tweet.
