Guarantee Spong is making more than he ever has for a boxing match here and his upside is tremendous if he pulled off the upset. It would instantly put him on the map.
honestly I don’t think so, Usyk is not a big name and way too dangerous. This could very well be spong’s last credible fight in his career. If he were to beat usyk you can guarantee the “see he wasn’t that good to begin with” comments to start flying around.
the only good thing is he is getting paid well and will never be paid like this again so it’s probably a cashing out for him.
