    Well it doesn't really matter though. In their eyes, it wasn't a fight. It didn't help their opinion of the sport. That was the usual reaction to a Mayweather fight, especially against Pac. The first Maidana fight was fairly popular though. Had Maidana been in there against Pac, it would have been very popular.

      Agree after the 2nd round Mayweather picked Mosley apart. He don't want to stand still doe....

          Brook is a good boxer.
          Cannot say the same for Spence.
          Great with all the torque building and center mass power.

          But besides all of that-- I've only seen his boxing as far as his competition.

          Intriguing match up though.

          Just how well will Spence do out of balance on the occasion?
          I don't know

            This is how I took it. Call him a runner thinking it will hurt his ego and force him to stand and trade....reverse psychology 101.

              A ring is there to use, using movement, pivots, etc is being smart, if you can't catch your opponent, your footwork sucks and it's your own fault.

                      He's saying that because he knows he can get outboxed by KB. And that is what will happen, Kell will make this kid look like an amateur.
