Learning experience....
Good fight for spence to learn from
Jleon love was a fighter that never learned from these types of fights.. hopefully spence will learn
I said this in the opening post,
"No I don't hate him, yes he's a great addition to the sport and yes I do enjoy watching him. So kill all the bitching"
but it wasn't enough.
Fighters get hit..that's boxing stuff.
That's what I mean by so what.
Just like running backs get tackled...it's part of the sport.
Don't get all menstrual.
Wow fighters get hit? And do boxing fans talk about fights too? Amazing!
This is the problem, the people who think mentioning flaws means we're "tearing him down."
Get the f*ck over your ridiculous victim complex.
It's like if it isn't fanboy banter then people don't know how to act :lol1:
So what??
I can't name too many guys that never got rocked.
Floyd is considered a defensive genius and he was rocked,hurt and wobbled by Chop Chop Corley.
What do you mean so what? So we're talking about it. We're talking about flaws and things that we saw in fights. You know, boxing stuff. No one is saying he's a bum or overrated. The f*ck you mean so what? So then don't talk about it if it makes you so damn defensive.
so everytime a fighter starts winning, and people get excited about their future in boxing... its time to tear him down....

Man, all the black supremacist fans around here are like the Trump voters of the Floyd Mayweather base. They're trying to drive away all the sensible, intelligent Mayweather fans. They split the party in half.
Spence's offense is his defense so far and somewhere down the line that could be his fatal flaw. We saw the same thing with Tommy Hearns. I don't think there is anybody around though that can give Spence problems.

GOD help you
Really? Didn't know that.
I'll have to go back and watch his earlier fights.
I've only seen Phil Lo Greco onward.
It was the second to last round of the fight. And occurred in the final seconds of the round. I wanna say it was the seventh.
Thurman got him plenty by non top guys.
Garcia is a punching bag compared to Spence.
Porter can't spell defence...nor can lil Timmeh.
Getting tagged by Lartey....so what?
It's not like Lartey is some bum they pulled out the stands.He's a damn good fighter.
He got tagged and he was hurt--wobbled. Could mean nothing but could mean something. It's why we discuss boxing on these boards.
He was rocked bad by Emmanuel Lartey. Not sure if it was mentioned. But his chin and defense are problematic IMO.

Who has better D at 147 than Spence????
Hard to compare because he hasn't quite faced the level of opposition most top welters have. So we'll see when he really steps up. But I've always had issues with his head movement (or lack thereof) and I thought the way he left himself open and the way he reacted after getting tagged by Lartey was telling. Happened at the end of the round or things would've got interesting. But to his credit he showed fire in the next round. But I still see that lack of head movement.
