I'm not saying he's not the real deal. I'm saying we don't know yet. We don't know how he'll react to getting hit by one of the top guys. We have no clue if he'll be able to dig deep when the going gets tough. Would he be able to go 12 hard rounds vs elite opposition?
We won't know the answers until we actually see him do it. So many prospects have been tripped up in the past by some of these.
Apologies for being short with you btw.Comment

I think it's a dilemma and one of those things going on with the sport right now at times.
You got guys that are right on the cusp of being not only world level but legit champions, but as a fan, you have to deal with promoter y dealing promoter z, TV networks, and the sanctioning bodies.
The fighters themselves and their teams.
Money involved in a sport that can actually have fatal consequences.
But you also got to realize that there are levels.
I'm going to be patient with Spence.
But I think he has the goods to be "The Man" at WW, and I'd like to see him get a chance prove it sooner rather than fall of 2019 or some shit.Comment

Lmao....
Before the fight tonight, porter's biggest win at 147 was against an over the hill malinaggi, and Thurman's was against an equally over the hill Guerrero...IDK who you think Spence needs to fight before he is ready for either of these guys....you guys kill me with that "he's not ready" nonsenseComment

I'd like you to point out the part of my post that said he's not ready. You might need to put some comprehension work in.Lmao....

Thurman proved his chin and stamina tonight and that his counters are fast enough to catch a decent fighter. Lot of questions around Spence. I'd take definitely take Thurman until we see something meaningful out of Spence.Comment
