Spence: "I'll walk Thurman down and probably stop him."

Someone who fought Spence who caught him with a good shot. Remember this is NSB, where if you EVER get caught with a good shot, your chin is made of glassComment

If he looks great against Brook he might have a hard time getting Thurman to fight him. I remember the old story of how he dropped and badly hurt Broner in sparring, he's a big WW and will make a good JMW.
I'm pulling for Brook, but won't be the least bit upset if Spence wins. We need more stars in the sport and beating Brook & Thurman both this year will make him an elite fighter. Plus he'll have mando's with the Porter/Berto winner and Peterson. If I was Al, I'd make sure if Spence can't get Manny, to atleast get Bradley before he leaves 147.Comment

This is the kind of logic that makes people look ******, every fight is different and every punch is different. Being hurt by a guy with less power is no guarantee that a harder puncher will be able to KO him.
We heard that Kovalev was definitely going to KO Ward because Boone dropped him and Paul Smith rocked him. Same thing with Fury and Klitschko, Donaire and Rigondeaux.
These triangle theories of "this guy hurt that guy so this bigger puncher will hurt that guy even more and knock him out" don't always work especially in fights between the best fighters or in Spence's case, potentially the best. Brook was dropped by some light hitting nobody early in his career, does that mean Spence will take him out? No!Last edited by NaijaD; 03-07-2017, 07:47 AM.Comment

He said she said, Ward was favorite against Kovalev. Spence doesn't react all too well on getting hit or fighters who forced him on the back foot. Paulie Acknowledged that from spence citing "he doesn't like it when the guy hits him back." Spence is consistent on reacting too negatively on getting hit. I doubt Spence could even beat Porter based on what kind of fight Porter is going to bring in the table.This is the kind of logic that makes people look ******, every fight is different and every punch is different.

Right. Garcia is a rugged warrior and Thurman made him timid. Spence will shell up or try to be too brave and not have near the chin and get put down.He said she said, Ward was favorite against Kovalev.
