Comments Thread For: Spence-Algieri, Glowacki-Cunningham Eyed For 4/16 PBC Card

[Sweet Jones]

Spence is 26 and just now fighting the first decent fighter of his career who is coming off 2 loses to Manny and Khan and a tomato can win. Good step up but let's not act like he is being pushed fast because he's fighting Algeri who is really a 140lb fighter who doesn't have a single significant win at 147. Algeri is not top 10 ranked at welterweight in RING, ESPN or any credible rankings. And not sure why you lumping Spence in with Mayweather promotions when he has nothing to do with them. This fight will be promoted by Lou Dibella not Mayweather promotions. Spence's last 2 fights were promoter by GYM, TGB. And this is now Dibella. He's a Haymon fighter not Mayweather fighter. I don't think Mayweather has a say in any of the fights he gets.

You mad?

Countdown to irrelevant anti-PBC rant in 5...4....3..........

Whoa...Spence stepping up. Algieri has improved with JDJ. That will be an interesting fight. It could be one of those fights that happens to every good up and comer, where they show a lot of flaws, and fans don't believe in them anymore. I'll be looking forward to this one. I don't know why, but I kinda hope Algieri wins, I kinda feel like he's due for another win, and Spence is just starting out, it won't hurt him as much as it will hurt Algieri to lose. They'll chalk it up to a learning experience.

How old is GGG again?

I think Spence will win impressively however I do think this fight is necessary and a step up from the competition he has previously faced. This fight will put him in position not only for a title shot but also some big fights to come.

Good fights. Spence will kill Algieri

[Teetotaler]

i was expecting algeri to fight guerrero or berto next. As for spence i was hoping he got Vasquez jr or maybe even alexander. It's an ok fight considering spence is still unproven at the top level and Algeri looking good under JDJ

[Fetta]

Algeri, Chavez, and berto for 2016. Then next year a "belt" fight.

Spence being brought up nicely

[therealpugilist]

Algieri is getting stopped in this fight...kid has a lot of heart but he is a little more aggressive fighting at 147...i like Algieri....he doesnt make his opponents respect him enough and stand his ground.

It will be a late stoppage, Algeiri will have some success considering Spence will have to find his range and that takes time.

I dont see this going down well for Chris

[Teetotaler]

Mickey Bey, Badoa Jack, and now Spence. Say what you want about Mayweather Promotions but they take the kid gloves off, if you can fight.

lmao mickey bey is a bum. KO'd by molina and a gift over vazquez after vasquez schooled him and then vacated the gift title to avoid the russian. How the hell did you even come up with mickey bey? I think froid thought of him irrelevant a while ago

forgot about those back2back losses. Also he is feather fisted too. Pretty much just a name for Spence at this point
