    Spence has serious health issues.....his team needs to tell him to retire.

    First, cong**** to Crawford on his biggest win, that can't be denied. However, anyone who cares to pay attention can see a host of red flags concerning Spence....here are a few...

    -his balance was way off....footwork terrible and clumsey.
    -his processing was way too slow, he has never been super quick but what I saw was a man with serious issues
    -his speech before and after the fight, again, he has never been great but he looked way off to me.
    -everyone is talking about how great Crawford looked....he has never in his 35 yrs looked so good...because he was fighting a damaged man.
    -Doctors who viewed the fight all say Spence is seriously brain injured and should not have been allowed in the ring.

    There is a reason Spence has not fought in a long time, I'm sure those around him knew there were problems. They cashed him out.

    Of course Crawford has no problem rematching at 154....he knows Spence has no resistance.

    I have been a boxing fan for 50 years and this reminds me of Ali vs Holmes in 1980.

    I hope Spence retires, I know he is after the money but another beating like the last one may ruin him completely...if not kill him. Let's hope those around him truly love him and tell him the truth.

        Damn shame how all these issues arose just before the Crawford fight. Terrible timing

            To be frank I never saw footage of the car crash until yesterday it's worse than I thought.
            He had recovered enough to best Garcia and ugas, he had enough reserves in him. But those fights might have diminished him further, that scans cant see

              Give him time to assess his next move. I don't believe in one loss rules them all, to borrow a movie theme.

                all I can say is he has never looked like a bumbling amateur before.....sure Crawford had a lot to do with it, but it was a cake walk for him, nothing coming back. Crawford had a much harder time in his previous fight that everyone called a sparring match. Yes he made it look easy....because it was easy. I don't want to see Spence in the ring again, he is risking what health he has left.

                    OP isn’t saying anything that hasn’t been posted all over the fckin net for the past 3 days…you didn’t think of this on your own and you’re wasting time trying to sound intelligent.

                    We’re beating a dead horse here.
