    Spence's Biggest Flaw As a Fighter

    what is it?

    Nearly every fighter, even the great ones, had an area that is sub par.

    Amir got no chin

    manny can't cut off a ring

    Floyd had glass hands

    etc

    Seems to have fixed his footwork issues that was his flaw years back, he gets hit with unnecessary punches at times, ive saw him live... id say his defense would be his biggest flaw, but it isn't that bad

      He doesn't move that well, and I've seen him look slow. Algieri didn't highlight those flaws but one presumes he'll face better fighters than Algieri.

        He's only faced one decent fighter thus far, and it was a soft punching opponent who, stylistically, was a cake walk for him. We won't know his flaws until he's in there with better comp.

          We will have to wait until he rises to the next level..he passed this test with flying colors..would like to see him fight the winner of Ortiz-Berto, then move on to the Thurmans, Porters,Brook of the division

                  He gets hit with some very clean shots. Cant remember his name but one of his recent opponents was walking him into some pretty big right hands as Spence tried to close the gap. Vs bigger punchers that could be an issue for sure.

                    tim bradley contemplated suicide because of a few death threats from manny fans. Sugar Ray Leonard tried to please fans by fighting Duran's fight.

                    If your not mentally strong when you reach a certain level in sports you will not maintain your competitive edge. Example tiger woods.

                    Navigating the politics of boxing is just as if not more important the beating your opponent in the ring.
