Supposing Spence could one day move up to 154, do you think he has the skills to beat Lara? His power might not be enough to close the show, as Lara was able to go 12 rounds with Canelo. Plus Lara has the reach and speed advantage, in addition to being a super crafty cuban fighter.
Spence got one solid semi close til KO win against coming down knockout badly broken socket at 160 brook and he KOs lara and canelo now???? LMAO! We don't even think GGG easily KOs Canela eventhough his power is more proven than spence at each of their own weight class.
im not saying spence doesnt have the potential to beat those guys someday, as he's still young and got plenty of grown and improvement left for his career.
But as of right now lara has got a good chance to beat spence. He has a better footwork, and i dont think he punches as hard as canelo. Styles make fights too.
Canelo can KO brook too even earlier than spence did.
As of right now, 160 canelo beats 147 spence. Canelo's weakness is fighting him off the backfoot, something i wouldnt expect spence to do. He'd be available for canelo's powe punches.
Earl Spencer might pass out from all those vanilla brownies Big G would force down his face haha
Please, lil g will have brownies in his underwear if he was to fight any real contenders. Let him stay there so Errol could met him then we would see what you would say.
Heard Errol Spence already ****ed then up in sparring.
Is there anyone Spence has NOT schooled in sparring?
I heard he beat up GGG and Canelo just for sh1ts and giggles...
On a more serious note; Lara's issue is not a lack of skill or ability, it is a lack of...balls.
Problem is lil g is not going too stay in that division two yrs.

I wouldn't pick Spence right now to win that fight. No need to worry about 154 anyway, there are a ton of high profile fights at 147 and Spence doesn't seem to have trouble making the weight.
soooo.... now spence stops lara?? are the people saying this the same that said that GGG is ducking lara?? :rofl:
Yeah that is a really puzzling line of thought....
GGG is/was avoiding a guy that would get stopped by a welterweight?? ..... some of you need to put index finger to lip and think before you post thoughts.
Spence would beat Lara definitely, be a favourite over Canelo and would be 50/50 against GGG in 2 years. He's a beast.

Errol hits harder than canelo & canelo slowed Lara with them body shots. Do you honestly think Errol can't do the same? I say Errol stops lara. Matter of fact he could stop canelo too.

LOL, what are you smoking. Hits harder the Canelo! I seriously doubt it!
Canelo is by far the better offensive and better punching. Errol would not make it 12 with canelo is what you ment.
Lara is a runner is the only reason he made it 12! I think Lara out boxes Errol.
Errol already said he would move to 154 just for canelo. Now please tell me if you honestly think canelo & his team would take that fight? That will answer your doubt....& Nelo already beat Lara, Lara has no power (unlike brook) so Errol won't hesitate to cut him off & go to work.
Prime, healthy Lara goes 12 hard to score, close rounds with the very best from 154 to 160, anyone less than the best would get beaten. The best at 147 may win 4-5 rounds against him if they bring it.
It remains to be seen if he's prime because he is in his mid 30s afterall and he hasn't fought anyone I can use to gauge if he's still a top guy at the top level. His fight vs Canelo was 3 years ago and he looked prime there but he was 31 and in boxing +3 years in your 30s is creeping closer and closer to that no man's land where fighters reflexes and footspeed drop. He also looked prime against Vanes last year but he has to fight someone like Charlo or Andrade this year and show if he still he got it.
