I am not nationalistic in any way, but it is the American fans which I feel need some perspective, that is all. I am not stopping anyone rooting for him, but just the expectations and comparisons being made need to be looked at.

I can't see how he will impose himself on the very top guys, unless he has levels and layers which we haven't yet seen.

For me Broner has already been majorly mishandled, but I don't care in his case because I think it is his own fault, getting way ahead of himself. Spence is a more humble kid, so i think they will manoeuvre him in a smarter way.

If Spence fights aggressively he will be just fine, he is an offensive fighter that has a lot of tools offensively with very good athleticism.
If he tries to be a defensive counter puncher he will suck because that isn't really his bag.
He won't look anything like Floyd because he will never be that kind of defensive fighter, but what does that even mean? that doesn't mean he can't have a ton of success.
