Comments Thread For: Spence: I'm Like Tim Duncan, Crawford Is Kevin Garnett - I'm More Stronger & Durable With All The Fundamentals

Us people who actually watched the interview know that he was asked about the weight and didn't bring it up out of nowhere.

But keep drenching yourself in that ignorance of yours

Us people who watch boxing know when you cut weight, you don't use it as an excuse beforehand. You save it until after you get your a$$ handed to you.

I always disagree with the concenceus that Spence doesn't do anything spectacular because I think he's an amazing inside fighter. From shot selection to body positioning, Spence excels beyond the fundamentals of inside fighting.

He definitely is not boring lol but it is a good comparison

The grammar police are happy to report back that Spence's actual words "I feel like, just, I'm the stronger fighter. I feel like I am more durable" were grammatically fine.

The grammar police do have to report an infraction from Boxing Scene's professional journalist who then mangled this into a headline saying "I'm more stronger."

Spence already complaining about making 147. That is some BS. He blows up between fights, drinks, etc.

Spence has been complaining about making 147 for years now. Where have you been?

This is about as even as the Nuggets vs. Heat was. Earl is about six weeks from visiting the ER.

He must be six weeks from bringing Crawford some "GET WELL SOON, BUD" flowers and some ointment for his eyes.

Yep. And he needs to either move up or shut it. He is apparently blowing up to 180 between fights. He will probably struggle to make 154. Any weight issues are on him.

I don't hear bluster from Bud. Spence is over acting. One second he is saying Bud is a great fighter, then he is saying Bud hasn't fought anyone. He is saying he is going to dominate Bud, then the weight is hard to make.

He just sounds goofy. I imagine a boring Spence UD and post fight he talks about how he wanted to "prove he could outbox him". In other words, I didn't want to to take no chances.

'Duncan averaged 19.3 points, 11.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2 blocks, and 0.6 steals per game playing against Garnett. Garnett averaged 19.8 points, 10.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.9 blocks, and 1.4 steals per game playing against Duncan.'

Okay, as someone who is ... ummm... "mature" enough to not only remember each of these guys is their prime but remember them being drafted, I am truly shocked that KG had more assists in their head to head match-ups. I would have lost money on that bet.

As for the analogy, I actually feel Spence is more physical like Garnett and Crawford is fundamentally near perfect like Duncan.

Prediction - Spence comes in overweight first attempt. He is older and realtively inactive - meaning >>> even more difficult to make weight.

Will all of you Spence STANs disappear after July 29th or will you take your medicine like men when the time comes? Don't pretend you were never on The Big Fish Bandwagon.
