Will Errol Spence’s inactivity (15 months) affect him like it did Josh Taylor?

    Bud's not so fresh himself. He's 36 years old and has only been fighting once a year since 2019.

      He's been inactive before and it didn't affect him against Garcia or Ugas. He said himself that he doesn't need tune ups and he stays active in the gym. Non factor I think.

        All I see are excuses lmfao and the first page reinforces that.

        Spencer isn't a great fighter and will benefit from a gift decision. Enjoying all the excuses though lmao

          Spence isn’t worried about it so I’m not going to worry about it either.

            If Spence has been giving into the alcohol, it will be a short night. I think Spence has stayed pretty sober since the drunken car crash, though. I think it will be a competitive fight.

              This man got thrown 30ft in the air and smashed his body against concrete. Came back and was determined to keep his word and fight Garcia, a dangerous counterpuncher known for his strength.

              I admit he won’t be as sharp…but he’s a real dog with very little talking unlike Taylor. Means he’s about his business. Taylor took this fight because he thought he could rag doll Teo, small 135lber. Two different people.

                He has done it before, but as you get older you get away with less, physically.

                  Spence will be ready. Word through the boxing g****vine is he puts in a crazy amount of rounds sparring in that texas heat

                    if so then both have a rematch clause so they get the opportunity to redeem themselves if they lose which I think is a great thing to put in place

                    both will be ready, never seen either look bad on the scale, both always shredded and on weight at weight ins
