      Exactly. I don't see why lacedup is having such a hard time understanding the correlation. You think Algieri will win, and began to explain why.

      I don't agree with you, BUT I respect the fact that you can come up with reasons why you feel Algieri can win, that consist of more than "Others said this guy will be the future."

      I think Errol Spence will win. However, my reasons are based off my own observations and my awareness of Spence's current opposition and what they brought to the table. Not "People say he will be the next best thing so we'll see..."

      People also said Broner would be the next big thing. Those with our own eyes new different...

        It will be competitive early but the gap will grow wider as the rounds go on and Spence's body shots take their toll. If CA comes out on the front foot and try to outwork Spence by being the aggressor like he did against Khan I think he gets stopped late, if he boxes he has the survival skills to last the full 12.

          Spence doesn't have the foot speed to land the type of shots you are envisioning. Also Chris in my eyes has shown the better speed and defense. Spence has power. If Algeri was open to being blitzed by speed he would have been cannon fodder for Khan.

            I think he will win and it might resemble how that man in your sig lost! Spence might land some flashy punches, but I expect Chris to establish his Jab and movement and to get off to a big lead early. Spences best hope is a late stoppage but neither Manny nor Ruslan could get Chris out.
            Lol idiotic as I said.

            Yes....Spence is the more advanced puncher, has Nate Diaz really not taught you that's not everything in a fight?

            When has he shown a better Jab? Chin? Heart? Stamina?

            Chris also seems to have the better reflexes.
            Suuuure..

Dropping guys that don't even have sixpacks with bodyshots while getting tagged upstairs?.... Don't watch early Mayweather/Brook fights because with how highly you rate Spence I honestly think your head might blow up from all the skills....

            Oh of course ...We don't know these men. It's not exactly important.
            You were right, Spence was just a bum.

            Just pure knowledge.

            He pretty much did EXACTLY what I said he would do.

              Algeri wasn't throwing a straight right hand against a southpaw and was trying to trade his left hook for a straight left,that was suicide ....And it was an early stoppage...I've already said I was impressed but still think Spence is an unknown quantity, I mean we were basing it off how much we thought Khan still has left which isn't a lot apparently. Now he can fight a guy who's biggest threat isn't taking him to deep waters but drowning him...I'm still not convinced. But guys like you who act like I won't be happy to be proven wrong and see some greatness are fools, I just think Spence is missing something.

              I'm sure you'd have just been as quick to point out all those times you were wrong eh? XD you think I actually care

                Oh and yes you were wrong..He just powered through Algeri showing that he was the much better puncher as I've already said. It was hardly a battle of Jabs was it..
