.....,just like the other one,

[Brian T]

Side Show Mike Tyson advises Errol 'THE TRUTH' Spence to fight again.

Preferably Jake Paul, after Mike fights him, but advises him to avoid Terence 'Bud' Crawford at all costs at any time, and says again why he will not watch a 'Alverez vs. Crawford fight at 168'.

He has made a lot of money retire and save your Brian cells

He's not financially secured. We've heard him railing about sanctioning fees for his belts; he felt he's paying too much for his training which resulted in a lawsuit.

Why would anyone take advice from Mike Tyson? I like him but his life is a train wreck and he's about to get beaten up by a YouTuber because he needs the money

Spence needs to retire before he ends up like Joshua. He was never that good he was just bigger than mostly all the other welters with maybe the exception of Brook who he barely beat and If Brook hadn't just went up to 160lbs to get demolished by GGG then Spence would've lost that fight way back then imho...

Spence simply can't pull that basic come forward straight up and down BS with bigger more skillful boxers at higher weight classes that should be common sense to anyone that knows boxing.

Bingo

That YouTuber is no joke. He’s beaten up and KO some dangerous, dangerous (yet some older, smaller) bad azz fighters. Paul is not a world class boxer, which he readily admits but the kid is very strong, hits very hard, is well trained and in shape and works very hard. Is there a lot of guys who are going to walk through these mma champions like he has.

Well he not a bad boxer but he basically chooses people he will 90% beat but who unthinking people will beat him.

Soon as Alex Pereira was mentioned by Jake as a possible opponent. People started saying "OH Jake is in trouble now". Just as they have with every opponent! Easy money!

Yea Spence, go ahead and take the advice of someone who's clearly not fit to fight...who's about to fight Jake Paul, lol. Yea that advice is coming from a good place.

Before his accident, Errol Spence was a very dangerous man. He was always "basic", as people like to say, but his punch resistance, speed, timing and reflexes were world class. But alcohol, and the accident took something from him in all areas. He was still excellent compared to most, so his slippage wasn't noticeable to many. It took someone of Bud's caliber to close the curtain on Errol. He has made a lot of money, and the hunger may not be there anymore, as well as the speed, reflexes and timing he'll need to compete, especially at a higher weight class. His stamina won't be the same, either. And his punch resistance isn't the same anymore, because he has to have some neurological damage from that accident. Bud added to the damage that was already there. Plus he's had eye surgery. The man has been through a lot. I'll always remember Errol for his prime. He was an amazing fighter indeed

are there any trainers jumping to work with Spence? Not without an ironclad contract, I bet.
