    Along with the press conference eruption from the usual nutcase, Angel Garcia.

    Damn tha boy looks shook and depressed not his usual self after Angel went in on him...but once Spence KO's Kell Brook 'Runtime' should be a contender for the IBF having taking a L to Swift...but then again Spence is too much for him...wow no wonder hes looking so gloomy end of the road buddy.

      nobody was mentioning Spence let alone hyping him until Floyd gave him a co-sign.. fact. that shows me Spence was really giving Floyd that work in sparring.

      but Keith is spot on with all he said, he was in Spence's shoes and was ducked by everybody, even Paulie Malignaggi said he was a nobody. time flies. and it's well known Marcos Maidana ducked Thurman for years.

      he also said Floyd never acknowledged Paul Williams, who was also the Errol Spence years back..he's right.

      something tells me Floyd is fighting the winner of Garcia/Thurman for #50.

            Paul Williams was a flawed imitation of Chico Corrales, and would have gotten handily outworked by PBF. Martinez basically beat him twice, Lara beat him...come on.

            The real reason he didn't bother with that fight is that Williams was not a draw. He was still an up an comer in the bigger picture. PBF was going after the big names.

            Williams and Spence aren't in the same class. Spence has not been given a gift decision, and until that happens, I consider him way above Williams in terms of closing the book on fights.

                I think this is why it will be hard for Spence to get guys like Brook and Thurman to fight him right now. He is high risk low reward.

                  I think Floyd would've won too, but it never happened so its just a fantasy fight. Spence and Paul are similar in terms of hype.

                    Sounds like a Floyd bait and switch
