Comments Thread For: Spence: This is My Era, Time to Unify the Welterweight Titles

[Sledgeweather17]

At the time Algieri faced him, Algieri had quite a bit of respect. He had beaten provo, got totally rolled by Pac, but then equaled Khan in every department. It wasn't that Spence beat him, it was how. Pac put him down multiple times, but couldn't finish him, and we know Khan couldn't either. Spence not only finished him off, but did it in emphatic fashion - no 'lucky' punches in there, Algieri got steamrolled.

Algieri was a test to see how Spence might stack up with Khan or Pac, and he outdid both by a large margin.

Styles make fights though, and we often get A beats B, B beats C, but then C beats A situations, so need consider the styles to see how Brook/Spence plays out. I don't think this goes the distance, they are both going to land on each other, and both feel it, and when Brook gets touched up he goes phone booth, and Spence is going to have the sharper combos and greater power when it heats up.

Brook will wear down as the weight drain catches up with him and the ending won't be far removed from the Golovkin fight.

Spence's insane body sniping is what's gonna wear Brook down. He showed a chin against GGG yes, but it is not the chin that you should worry about when you're up against Spence, it's that body.

Regarding Algieri, ignore the trolls. Those same trolls criticizing that victory are the same people who, before the fight, were out here bragging about how Algieri was gonna expose the hype job Spence. Soon as Algieri got KTFO they came out here and started lining up the excuses.

No one has a name on their resume until they have a name on their resume. Spence...he will show his worth.

The way dude is and if he continues to maintain his weight being a big welter that he is. If he does get the W this saturday I can see him be a Hagler of 147. Just has that old school toughness and skills to go with it. Not to mention an American rugged southpaw. Oscar may see him as a Leonard but I disagree.

Lol respect for the confidence but its badly mistaken!

You dont go from fighting part time pizza delivery italian boxers and part time nutritionists washed up kick boxers to facing the champ, the only man at welterweight who had the cajones to fight Golovkin at his weight and take his shots!

Brook is gonna teach this guy a lesson and then knock him out and scream, "Man Down"!

Spence is 27?? Lmao at his era!
