Errol Spence Jr vs Diego Chaves

[PivotandRoll]

The rising star vs the dangerous boxer puncher.

Chaves will be a bit outsized as he should really be at 140 but Spence will be in with the biggest puncher of his career and by far the most skilled (imo).

Spence has consistently shown he is there for the right hand of which Chaves has one of the best in the game, while Chaves has shown weakness to the body of which Spence may be able to exploit.

I see it as 50-50.

Good test Spence could use...needs to fight a dirty ass fighter

Okay, you got your jab in. Now any thoughts on how the fight might play out?

That's a decent fight for Spence right now. I don't think his defence looks anything special and he's there to be hit if he has a fighter in front of him who is good enough to land shots, and Chaves seems to have pretty good power.

I think Spence would win but i'd like to see him in with a live opponent who can actually land and can crack.

Feels like a step back. Chaves boxes well Spence runs through him. Chaves gets broken down after 5

Is this fight being planned?

Good fight, Chaves throws very good short, sharp counters, but Spence is too good. I think he breaks Chaves down to the body and stops him late, but it would be fireworks for as long as it lasted.

You think Algieri does as good as Chaves did against Thurman and Bradley?

Yes I feel Spence's bodywork will very important in this fight, but if Chaves can hurt him it would be interesting.
