Comments Thread For: Spence: I Feel Like I'm On Borrowed Time Right Now; Can't Just Sit Around, Fight Tune-Up

[champion4ever]

It may sound messed up, but the car accident was a self-made mistake that put a hold on his career so he can't be fighting tune ups since he missed out on a good portion of his prime. He did that to himself...As for the torn retina, obviously that could have happened with or without the accident so that was just bad luck but he missed out on fighting completely in 2021 because of it. Spence has the right mindset of taking tough fights but he also has no choice because of what has taken place since the Porter fight.

I agree. Time is running out on his career. He has lost so much valuable time with those two setbacks; With the car accident and the detached retina. He should be fighting in at least his second weight division of his career by now because i know his goal is to first become the undisputed champion at welterweight and then possibly move on to win titles in multiple weight divisions like all the old time greats had.

I respect that he jumps right back in the ring Tough and is not looking for Soft Touches and Easy Money

Yes, that's the harsh truth. Who knows what career-shortening effects the combination of these incidents will have had? Spence gas gotta do what he can, whilst he can and deserves some respect for having the balls to do it.

Errol has had to recover from two sickening injuries and both times he’s faced Danny Garcia and Now Yordenis Ugas as his first fight back.

If he isn’t the definition of old school mentality, I don’t know who else is!

True. Errol has always wanted to fight the best fighters.

As a long time Errol fan I am slightly concerned. I still have nightmares about some of my car accidents and I’ve never been in one this bad.

He took care of gun shy DSG, but I think we can all agree that wasn’t the finest version of Spence we have seen. Given what he had just gone through, I wouldn’t expect him to be at his best.

My biggest fears are that he starts getting hit a lot and either his face starts busting up or psychological effects from the accident start showing up and altering his demeanor in the ring.

Also, hopefully the retinal treatment doesn’t become an issue.

Hopefully none of these things happen and we can get a great unification between two Champions.

But we've seen with last minute replacements, look at Josh v ruiz off too of my head.
so you saying pac would look even worse v spence that's like triangle theory isn't it?
Pac had big balls to sign fight just annoying what played out. Not saying spence ducked

Well joshua was the huge favorite when he fought ruiz. Pac was the underdog when he was signed to fight Spence.

Not doing triangle theory but pac looked shot in the legs. Anyone could have beaten him that night. Spence could have hurt him.

These delusionals talking abt spence wanting the "tough fights" when he fought a mikey and wouldnt fight crawford and acting like he isnt a broken commodity... *facepalm*

Spence couldav beat him? He couldnt beat sparring partners, yall acting like yall are sure that spence will come at 100% always

[Boricua181]

I agree if they ever do fight I'd pick Bud but I dont believe we get that fight

They're supposed to being fighting next if Spence defeats Ugas, these are two committed fighters.
One's getting up there in age ( Crawford), the other one has gotten all ****** up (Spence).
So it makes all the sense for them to fight the biggest money making fight, which is between them.

Ugas was a late replacement on less than two weeks notice AND yet he beat PAC. But you believe Spence was struggling with sparring partners and wasn’t guaranteed to beat PAC?
Ugas beat PAC but Spence couldn’t?
