Comments Thread For: Roach: Thurman Is Actually Better Than Spence; Throws More Combinations, A Little Stronger

[FasTHarD]

People should understand on why Roach and Pacman signed the fight against Spence. They know something that we don’t and Only idiot thinks Spence is stronger than Thurman.

[Jab jab boom]

Wishful thinking by Roach. While there are certain things that Thurman does better, Spence is much more durable and mentally tougher than Thurman. Not to mention he’s much sharper and has better stamina than Thurman. Pac is getting hurt and it will be the end of an era.

For all the talk of how Thurman hits harder than Errol, when's the last time he stopped anybody? When's the last time he even had a knockdown?

But I love the talk. No excuses come August 22.

Both Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter said Thurman hits harder. So...

What are you saying? Errol hasn’t stopped anyone lately..

This is the first time Roach made sense, Thruman is a better boxer he was actually the top guy before his year and half sabbatical due to injury and then spence took over as top dog. Spence on tape is one dimensional and robotic, but he makes up for it by being so much longer than his opponents, he is able to keep distance so they cant rush on him.

also what this shows me for the first time roach is actually watching tape again, this means they are taking the fight serious.

but pacquiaos age will show, there is no way he will get stamina again, he is now a five round fighter after that he tries to cruise, and spence will take over and brutally beat pacman down and walk him down like he did kell brook when he gassed. Brook had an impressive first three or four rounds and tired and spence took over and walked him down with punches later on.

Thurman probably IS the better/more talented fighter. But talent will only take you so far. Keith's work ethic is what has always been problematic.

spence had his chin checked by the dashboard on his ferrari and he regained memory 1 month later, he may be vulnerable

Lol, Thurman is not better than Spence, or as good. Freddie trying some psychology.

LMAO not a chance. first of all thurman doesn't have a jab. spence has a great long jab.

spence also has a tight guard, thurman gets hurt and wacked every fight.

the jab, and errols ability to control range, and his body and aggresive style are going to be a huge problem for manny.

I see errol playing defensive and utilizing the jab for the first 4 rounds. jabbing and moving back when manny attacks. then I see him upping the pressure and body work for a second half stoppage. i can definetely see errol hurting him or a corner stoppage.

This will be Garcia/Spence all over again when Spence finds his range against Pac. All that leaping in stuff will be Pac's downfall if he tries it. Spence will be the first technical fighter Pac faced since Marquez and Mayweather. I never rated Thurman, because his boxing IQ is overrated and he doesn't throw a proper jab. He uses his weak Jab to telegraph his right hand.
