    Don't be NAIVE.

    no they wouldn't, it happens all too often with boxing. more than any other sport.

      Spence has never used latteral movement for defense. There are youtube vids breaking down this, prefight, and plenty have noted Spence always moves in a straight line when he backs up.

      I enjoyed the vid a lot, but its conjecture. This doc hasnt seen, tested, or diagnosed Spence.

      Spence looked like his old dominant self in all the fights post accident. His toughest fight was before the accident in fact. If he was so compromised how did he stop Ugas?

      he got rocked against ugas and he got into car accident after the ugas fight

        No...the accident was in October 2019 and he fought Ugas April 2022.

          Ali literally had trouble touching his nose in the physical. Ultimately, it was his decision but fighters will fight so they need to be saved from themselves sometimes. Spence would've died in that ring on Saturday before quitting.

            If you think about it, Spence was probably Crawford's easiest fight, and that does not make sense. I’m not saying that Crawford wasn't going to win...just not so easily.

                You're absolutely right. After the car accident, he had an interview at a Showtime fight. I said that night on boxingscene he sounded bad. People were trying to say it was his new teeth or that he always sounds like that. We knew better.

                  I know he got rear ended 3 months after the first, but he wasn't hurt.

                    Just add it to the excuse list that wasn't there an hour before the fight, I wonder if Fulton has a list like the growing list for Errol, I bet if his fight was in the US Inoue would be hearing a bunch of excuses as well, sometimes the other guy is that much better, put a racehorse in with a pony and he wins by a mile because his legs are longer this is the mentality of fans, TC been getting everyone outa there its not like Errol is his first stoppage.
                    These aren't excuses as to why he lost, but the circumstances surrounding how badly it all went. If you think none of this was discussed leading up to the fight, then you weren't paying attention.

                    The Ugas fight and how easily he was able to hurt Errol was used constantly by Crawford fans as to why Bud would knock Errol out.

                    Bud beat Errol. Bud is better than Errol. This thread isn't about that. It's about Spence's health.
