          Amir Khan would end up on a stretcher if his wifey hitted him in a pillow fight, and Spence got some solid power so I doubt it happened

              I don't think it happened,Khan didn't seem to know who Spence was until recently.

                  No, Amir Khan didn't get beat up by Spence, this never happened, no way, no how. What had happened was Khan walked in cold with a 106 fever and his eyes weren't fully opened. The day prior his Chin Maker 7000 wasn't working. Also Mayweather never threw Spence out after getting a beating and a black eye, same thing goes for Broner getting KO by Spence. Gym myths I tell ya.

                      "Will Spence be able to handle fighting Brook in England?!"

                      Mate he sparred the greatest of all time Amir Khan in Bolton with a diet solely of curry and fish and chips.

                      This is the funny thing about boxing which most fans don't get much insight into and that is how well all these fighters know and have heard about each other. Many have sparred with one another or fought in amatuer competitions.

                      Spence likes to fight off the front foot and throw body attacks which Alexander doesn't really do. They would have had him solely remain static whilst sparring Khan. Khan probably beat him to the jab most of the time with spence landing a few nice counter hook and straight lefts. Sparring must have worked well he was on point against alexander.

                          Spence was battered from pillar to post. I mean we're talking about a Khan that was whooping Andre Ward in sparring, we all know that to be the truth

                              Khan will beat anyone in sparring coz of headgear especally against a southpaw. But in a real boxing match idk spence got that power and aggresion

                                  I know nothing about it. All I know is that Spence is a much better boxer than Khan in every way.
