    That is not true. Money talks in a corrupt sport and we have seen countless examples of damaged fighters still fighting for years.

          doing a car flip without seat belt, and needing reconstruction facial surgery. Would be surprised if he came out of that without any long term effects. **** him, idiot was a driving drunk, thankfully he didn't kill anyone.

            Spence went life and death with porter pre accident so no the accident did not play a role.

              People have known that Spence has been riding his health just as hard with partying and drinking as he has with boxing. The car crash screwed him up... physically, but I am not sure it screwed him up mentally. Mentally he seems fine.... physically, yeah, after the physical trauma he is not the same.

                But underlying conditions progress with time, he didn't seem the same as he was prior to the fight as he was prior to the Porter fight. Something was off about him, and even the ring Dr saw it and stepped into the ring to look at him.

                  He still talked much faster in 2018, and overall more lucid despite the texas drawl. Just go and look. He sounds like a stoner now.

                    yall seriously couldn't tell he sounded punch drunk in his first appearance after the crash? most of you said he always sounds like that and then they said it was his teeth. I knew what the *** I was hearing.

                      Agree. Just look at Ali-Holmes for the cruelest example. This was a huge fight with a lot of money on the table, they would easily cover up any health issues for the show to go on and everyone to get their piece of this huge pie.
