Comments Thread For: Can Errol Spence Jr. still fight at his fearless, aggressive best?

[BrankoB]

Erroll thought he was the best. He thought he could beat anyone.

Now he knows he's not even close.

He'll never be the same unfortunately.

Agree, but he probably has enough to be competitive against guys like Fundora. Forget about trying to rematch Bud. That is a suicide.

Sometimes you just lose the hunger when you become ultra rich. I believe that's what's happened to Spense!

That happens to most fighters. Very, very few can continue to live in the gym when they become rich. That is why Floyd was so successful for such a long time. He was a gym rat and stayed in shape.

That said, if Errol Spence comes back I would like to see him with a coach like Stephen Edwards or Vigil Hunter because win or lose, both consistently get fighters to perform at the best their guy has to offer.

That's my opinion... and I'm sticking to it.

I'm pretty impressed with Andy Lee's work lately too. I wonder if he might be able to help Spence.

He is fearless in the sense he continues to want to box knowing his vision is diminished in his left eye.

I think he knew he was about to take that beating and he still went in there. He is fearless but it won't make him any better in the ring - I would expect him to take another similar beating against most good fighters.

Had he went through with the PAc fight without saying anything about his eye he might have been beaten then as well. I don't think it has sunk in that the reason he didn't fight Pac was because he could not see. I don't get why people say "good thing it wasn't Spence in there against Pac, Pac would have died" - but the whole reason Spence couldn't fight Pac was because he couldn't see. So had that been Spence instead of Ugas, Pac would have been fighting a one-eyed fighter basically.

Maybe if he fights someone who is low volume and doesn't have great speed, orthodox. No southpaws. He gets by Ugas, but did not look good at all early on;he gets rocked anf frozen up in a way we've never seen him. Ugas stops throwing punches and so there isn't a lot coming back from a certain point. Spence ends up re-arranging Ugas' face, but stuff was off imo.

He couldn't see prior to Pac, he couldn't see against TC. He will show up in the ring walks with puffy eye again looking like David Reid did before his fights. Very painful to say that I think It's over.

Spence screwed his last trainer. Who wants to be next?

[TonyRespectful]

Has he even been seen training ?

[Slip jab]

Should’ve fed him to boots. Upside

[Brian T]

Sure he can.

Just as long as he goes back to fighting ONLY PBC fighters....which Sebastian Fundora is on of them.

They are both on the "same side of the street."

Easy peasy.

[Phase III]

Absolutely not. Very damaged as a fighter. Also, he’s on the verge of becoming an alcoholic.

With still no fight scheduled, what exactly is he waiting for?
