When fans perceive a threat

[Floyd is TBE]

Brook is hype job. He's benefited from ducking all the top welterweights and now some people think he's elite because he landed one uppercut on GGG. Remember Brook is the same guy who got his ass handed to him by Carson Jones. Spence will beat him easisly, why else would Hearns be trying everything in his power to avoid this fight.

[The Big Dunn]

youre reading too much into it. People are sick and tired of hearing how amazing spence is based on him beating 40 year old bundu and algieri. Weve had this hype before with broner and its the same old song and dance. Got teddy atlas putting him on the p4p list, saw someone today saying hes going to beat golovkin soon. Its ridiculous. We had all this with broner, 'hes the next mayweather!' you guys were all so sure of it, it was just a matter of time!!! Then he stepped up, and got brutally found out. J-rock williams, saw he was on a few peoples sigs, this guy was the future, he'd been looking real good against them c level fighters and the power was legit! Charlo was going to be his coming out party! Then he stepped up, and got ko'd. Time and time again people overhype fighters and get carried away especially with offensive fighters, when they start knocking out lower level fighters quicker than other people have. So im not just picking on american fighters i'll use a recent uk example, david price just got stopped for the 4th time. Seems ridiculous now, but this guy was espn prospect of the year,would have been heavy favourite against tyson fury, he was meant to be the next lennox lewis, then he stepped up and got found out. Now hes pretty much a laughing stock but this guy was meant to be next heavyweight superstar. Errol spence MAY become a top fighter and ive got nothing against him. But what makes my blood boil is how people take it for granted that hes the next welterweight king, saw people just dismissing lacy comparisons, they cant fathom how spence could possibly be a hype job. Its quite possible brook could absolutely school him, its quite possible spence demolishes him, people should just wait and see before making these ridiculous assertions of how great spence is based on him walking through fighters that have absolutely zero power. Lets see what happens when he gets punched back and reign the hype in please, sick of reading it.

why do you keep lying about the hype Spence is getting? At best its 1 or 2 posters. It certainly isn't the bulk of NSB.

It seems like you are doing this out of anger that people criticize GGG's resume.

[The Big Dunn]

There are already threads in NSB that puts spence against the likes of Trinidad. And you complain why there are people claiming that spence is too over hyped?

Where is this thread?

Why are you complaining when you made a Jermall Charlo v Spence thread?

And I never complained. I just said that there are too many small vs big fights. Jermall Charlo is ridiculously big for JMW, same for Spence in Welter, and right now I am suggesting for him to not move up to 154 because I realized how much of a size difference there or of top welters against top super welters. Literally 5-6 inches in height and 20 pounds. Brook and Spence only has a 'chance' against guys like Charlos and Andrades.

virtually all of the responses in this thread suggest Tito would win. kigali, TMT, brushmyhair went with Spence. Yet you act as if its rampant.

this is the crap bigdramashow, jubei, freedom and Maxi do. I know why they do it. Why are you overexaggerating the number of people that think Spence will win?

Don't take ANYBODY serious on this Forum! Especially the Mental Ill trolls who post dumb stuff for Attention only

You can't run with one man's terrible opinion. Someone like Kigali is to Spence as Bigdramashow is to Golovkin. Basically a ******ed fan that does not convey the opinion of the majority and certainly not the sensible.

I don't get why you have to hyper-exaggerate the number of people that have that sort of biased opinion on Spence, Atlas puts him on his P4P list (which I think is completely laughable and unacceptable) and suddenly guys like you are claiming everybody has him on their list also. It's borderline childish, should I go round claiming Golovkin fans think he's the hardest punching MW ever just because a select few of his ****** fans do?

[Real King Kong]

The Brook vs Spence fight seems like it will be made now and I'm really excited about it and honestly can't pick a winner, which is why I lobbied for this over the Khan fight which was never happening to be honest.

What I noticed is that you don't see people who are backing Brook trying to build Spence up, they are tearing him down and downplaying his worthiness of the hype he has received. This is GOOD, this tells you we have a real fight on our hands.

Compare that to the Golovkin vs Jacobs fight where we have those backing GGG trying to build Jacobs up and basically sell the fight to us, this tells me it's not perceived as a competitive fight and deep down those fans don't see Jacobs as a threat.

I don't think anyone would argue that both Brook and Golovkin are favourites heading into the fights but you can't deny that there is a difference in how both these fights are being discussed on here and it comes down to Spence being seen as a threat where as Jacobs isn't. So call Spence the next Jeff Lacy or American hype job or whatever but the truth is (pun intended) you know he's a worthy opponent and a threat otherwise you would be trying to build him up like Jacobs so you can overrate the win rather than tear him down.

Just my thoughts on the fight.

Jacobs is more proven than spence at this point.

[jmrf4435]

Spence is way over hyped and people were starting to take notice. I see no problem with people believing SPence is overhyped.

I think Brook beats him

[NaijaD]

I never said Spence is more proven, he isn't but he appears to have a far better chance of winning his fight than Jacobs does.
