I Don't See How Any Real Boxing Fan Can Not Like Spence

Its not that I dont like him, its that the excuses for NOT fighting Crawford were bullsh.it....
"He needs a belt 1st"
"Hes across the street"
"80/20 or 70/30"
He shouldve just kept it 100 with the "clean up his side" and Bud after, w/o saying anything else.Comment

Yeah this is one! I thought it was on tomorrow night.
I always ask people’s thoughts on fight cards, there are people far more knowledgeable than me on here.
What fights are you looking forward to?Comment

Fury-Whyte, Canelo-BIvol, Kambosos-Haney, Charlo-Castano all come to mind. AJ-Usyk if it happensComment

I always rooted for him because of the body punching, he is one of the few bringing that high caliber body work of old. And since he was one of the "chosen" guys I wanted him to succeed because he would have more entertaining top level fights than what Floyd was leaving us with at the tail end.
I went to most Floyd fight weekend; and a lot of the time on the trip back we would talk about all types of things: how much money we spent, how drunk we got, how fun the parties were, the women...everything except for the damn fight we just watched. Not a dig at Floyd just to say that when I was projecting out Spence's career, I was thinking that would be a nice change to have his style fighting in marquee fights. I hoped the casual people would also get to see those fights that build to a crescendo and that's what Spence's style can bring. He came around at the right time I thought - there was too much credence to the "hit and not get hit" mentality and that's only one philosophy of many
BUT...gooood damn it has taken a long time. Way longer than I would have expected and he's nearly blew it all after being handed to him. All handed to him and he almost fumbled big time, really not sure what to think about that. There's some entitlement that has revealed itself imo
But I still like him - and after the Ugas fight it's looks like he's really "back" (even though I'm questioning his durability)...but he's strong enough to make those fights we want. Really glad he is still around. Pretty sure we've all had a favorite fighter have to retire or die suddenly - it's impossible to fill those void so I'm glad boxing still has hiim
I root for him, but not against TC. He's getting thrashed in that fightLast edited by LA_2_Vegas; 04-22-2022, 06:09 PM.Comment

What BS did he say, I remember he said he wanted to unify WW and has systematically ticked everyone off the list the last one is TC and he is pursuing him next, there was no chance the fight could happen while Arum was pulling the strings, from what I can see he has done what he said he would do.Comment
