Spence needs to beat other guys beside Algeri Spence is a former 152 pound guy sucking down to 147 Algeri is a 140 weakling with 8 ko's in 30 fights so the right opponent was picked. he needs to fight Thurman, Brook or someone of that caliber. So at this point I'll pick Canelo just on power and size alone
... Actually, Spence fought only six of his 20 fights at or under 147... all the others were above 147...
Canelo easily right now. He's the heavier man with a much more proven defense against better competition & from what I can see quicker hand speed. Spence seems even less mobile than Canelo which would hurt him the most in my opinion. Also judging from Spence's style and overall lack of head movement..he seems like a guy that would fall for Canelo's feints...which is something he would learn to do with after more experience.
Spence VS Crawford
Spence VS Canelo
The guy is campaigning at 147, let's keep these matchups within his current weight class.
So now that Spence has beat a former jr. Welter that has done very bad at welter with the World middleweight champion?
Hes easily a LMW, so really Canelo and him are nearly the same size
Apparently he enters the ring in the 170s and he certainly looks like a huge WW, ripped to the bone
Its a legitament match up and if spence keeps doing what hes doing id probably pick him in the near future
I love Spence but Canelo is not a good fight for him right now. Spence has to work on his jab and get a little better upper body movement. But in Spence defense the most confused I seen Canelo was his fight with Lara who is also a southpaw. A fight between Spence who is from dallas and Canelo at Cowboy Stadium would probably ultimately be a dream fight for Spence. If Spence reaches the point to when that fight is made it means he has been through the welterweight gauntlet.
Haha c'mon, talk about an over reaction. Let the kid fight an actual world champion before you put him in fantasy fights that would get him hurt.
He looked good last night but let's not get carried away.
Who wins and why?
