    Can Errol spence be like rigo???

    I know Errol has been fighting some cans but do y'all thing he can be champ as quick or close to as fast as rigo did????

    The only reason Rigo shot up so quick is because he had the experience as a Boxer even tho not as a pro and has pretty much seen it all in a Ring, i'm not familiar enough with Spence to comment but i should say prospects shouldn't be rushed it's bad I've seen quiet a few ruined in the past couple of years guy should only be thrown in the fire when you know they can handle it and if age is on his side why rush it.

      Hell no. Rigo had over 400 amateur fights so he had seen every style and was pretty damn polished when he started. Errol is a work in progress.

        He had some good experience prior to turning pro and a Olympic fighter no he ain't got rigo credentials but he's had enough. I don't know man I hate seeing guys like him fight super duper cans....like the guy he fought last week looked worst out of shape then me if he's going n getting good work with Floyd n broner I'm sure he can be ready for a step up in comp.

          But the guy is 23 what's the rush ? This is the time to be fighting mediocre guys and gradually step up competition is not that he would do badly but the guy hasn't even gone 12 rounds yet he should be allowed to develop a bit i seen 2 very promising prospects i liked of the top of my head that got broken down because they got thrown into the fire too quickly.

            I feel like a lot of the Cubans have been rushed and will not reach their potential But it's different since they won't get the guaranteed opportunities Spence will get, so they gotta move fast.

            The strange one for me is Andrade, a big time talent and amateur star, still with small time promoter

              No rush. Let him fully hone his skills, go for a belt, win the belt, and be ready for any style that comes his way to challenge him. That's usually how it works.

                I'm not saying to do it.... I guess I wrote it wrong more so asking if u think he can beat some of the champs or contenders at his weight class.

                  The Cubans have been rushed cause they turned pro so late and they all have come thru. Rigo, Lara and Gamboa. Unless you're talking about someone else...
