    maybe if james has him actually train to fight a southpaw this time it will be more competitive, he looked confused and was fighting as if he was fighting bud at ortho

      Respect to Spence if he takes a rematch. That was a pretty bad beating.

        The rematch needs to be made ASAP. Not freaking take 1 year long layoff first.

          He can still be relevant at 154 and pick up a belt there.
          I dont think Spence comes back the same. Idk if he was trying to hold back tears but he sounded concussed post fight. He might be able to get a chance at a vacant title against Danny Garcia but after that beating Id favor DSG and Spence should stay far away from Tszyu.

            If anybody around him cared, they would be begging him to stop boxing, period.

              Not at this weight, you looked drained and weak..your punches had no effect because of cutting too much weight, crawford is comfortable at that weight that's why he looked fresh throughout the fight. You basically beat yourself before even entering the ring.

                Spence has never been a great fighter blah..

                Crawford smokes him easily every time.

                    Do you know how many fighters lose and don’t want a rematch regardless of the pay, because they got the sh/t beat out of them?

                    If you have been watching boxing for a while you would know that’s very common. Usually fighters who get beat down like Spence did don’t want to revisit such a match.

                      He did sound pretty bad in the interview. Not surprising right after the beating he took. He could hang it up tomorrow and be in the HOF. If he decides to keep fighting, probably can't change his style up much at this point. Want see him after a full recovery at 154 without the long layoff and weight drain before I can judge how much he has left.
