He is kind of like a robot as basic as they come. He just throws txtbook punches without creating opportunities.
Borrrrring. Dont make me laugh with this boogeyman bullsht. Is this what we call special fighter in 2019?
Sorry but Spence is not special but he is very good still.
I think loma will have an easy time getting in and out and landing to a comfortable UD. Mikey is slow footed and loma is a freak with his legs.
Mikey has never really shocked me with his power. I wonder if mikey will have a hard time cutting weight now. He's pretty stocky.
I don't think it's gonna happen. Not worth for Mikey to trim down to 135. Expect Mikey to campaign at 140.
Loma's legs and pitty pats won't work on Mikey.
Loma won't do shit honestly. Mikey would decapitate him. If Linares and Pedraza were considered big, Mikey will be a huge lightweight. He's also skilled and stronger than those pretenders. Loma won't mention Mikey.

Lets be real here he dominated because of a big size advantage not because of his basics. Lets see if he can bully a big strong welter like thurman or porter with the "basics"
He wasn’t fighting like a face first brawler. His size wasn’t the biggest factor. Spence will 100% bully porter
Remember you kept saying how trash ugas was, and he should have got the decision
Mikey looked like a lost 1 trick pony.
Loma does the same without hurting him so much

The moment spence landed a jab garcia shelled right up and wouldnt let his hands go in fear of spences return fire. Spences jab is probably more powerful than anything garcia has ever felt in his career.
Everything spence throws hurts people. It's weird. And i mean everything, he chopps ****ers down
I wonder if it will carry when he fights bigger guys or fights at 154
Spence impressed me in the sense that I didn’t think he could box for 12 rounds or majority of a fight!
He could’ve easily mauled Garcia in there whenever he wanted but wanted to show the doubters that he can box and bang as well!
Him vs Crawford just got a lot more interesting, that fight needs to happen later this year or early next year but it can’t be after 2020!
I think Bud will absolutely have his hands full but if there’s anyone in that division with the precision, footwork, skills, IQ and speed to beat Spence, it’s Crawford!
How I see it. I'm big on Crawford too. Spoken like a good fan. I like both fighters. Green K.
No he outboxed Garcia by controlling him with his footwork and jab. He didn't start to bully him until the 9th round
This is coming from someone who wanted Garcia to win and wants Thurman to one time him :lol1:

Exactly, Spence has alot more to prove before being hailed as the next big thing. If he is a killer like everybody says he is, he should have set some traps on the smaller opponent, created some openings to really put the hurt on. Despite all the punches he landed, garcia was never in any real danger.
Spence vs. Crawford is the next big match up. I don't mind it marinating longer until end of next year or in 2 years even. Clearly both have talent and skill set that sets them apart from other 147ers. Imagine a Ward vs Roy Jones or a Money May vs. Sugar Ray type of match up. Both fighters have great arguments on how and who beats who.
Spence didn't come to brawl, he came to box. Throughout the promotion he and his trainer kept telling everyone that skills will win the fight, not size and power, and they did just that.
Doing what you said you would do, and doing it so perfectly (winning every round) is just incredible to me.
If spence had just come in and imposed his size and will on Mikey, people would be giving Mikey props for trying.
But he chose to impose his skills on Mikey instead. In the process, he showed the world that its Mikey who is the basic fighter.
This isn't going to go down and Mikey daring to be great, its going to go down as him daring to be stupid.

Kell Brook was a big strong welter that Thurman avoided and Porter lost to.
That question has already been answered.
Just keeping it real.
Spence has every fuking thing. Speed, power, stamina, defense, body attack, great jab, extremely high punch output, accuracy, variety of hard power punches, high ring IQ, gameness and heart and CREATIVITY. That's why he is my pfp number one and no welterweight on earth can beat him in my opinion. He is a tall slim natural welterweight and not a so called weight bully what ever the fuc that is. He will stay at welterweight for years and beat all welterweights who will fight him. Get used to it or try to find a welterweight who can beat him, Good luck with that.
Mikey would still beat the hell out of Porter. Thurman would go a little different. I'd give Mikey a chance. Porter confirmed he's nothing special in his last fight. That was an awful fight.

I honestly saw a different Spence last night. Sublime skills and movement. I'm in awe with Spence's boxing skills. It's still sinking in. He didn't look too powerful. Maybe because he's sucking down to 147. Last night, his boxing skills were on display. It was a marvel to watch. Thank you.

"simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
a smart fighter doesn't make things needlessly complex when he can dominate, and i mean dominate, with the basics.
just because he didn't show you more of his arsenal doesn't mean it isn't there. spence is wise beyond his years and the garcia fight was yet further evidence of that.
perhaps it is boring to you, i can't argue with a subjective opinion. to me dominating someone like that with the basics shows true mastery of his craft, and there is a degree of artistry in that which is simply beautiful.
spence vs crawford will be one of the all time best WW matchups.
