    Really dude? You're proud that you believed in a kid that OBVIOUSLY has talent dripping out of his ears lmao. That's like me saying I'm so proud in believing in Kevin Durant all these years. I knew he'd be a great ball player.

      Nothing quite like the feeling. I remember the Rigod vs Donaire fight + the aftermath like it was yesterday.

      On the other side of the coin i remember my boy Lucas losing to Danny Garcia and his ******ed hype man father.

      The ups and downs of boxing. Enjoy it while it lasts. I hope Spence goes on to do more than Rigo did

        Not going to lie I laughed hard at this.

        Still there were many Spence detractors over his prospect years saying he would not amount to much because he got hit too much, or he wasn't flashy enough, or they just didn't see anything special in him. I never got what those people were seeing because I was seeing what looked like a blue chipper but not everyone agreed.

          Lol I know, I'm just busting his balls. But yeah, this kid was/is obviously a bad ass.

              I think Welterweight is disgustingly overrated. Its as if people haven't realised that Mayweather has gone, and Pacquiao is cashing out.

              Thurman and Spence are good, but I think we need to re-evaluate the division
              I agree. Cong**** to Spence for coming to UK and taking the title but man, it was a sloppy fight. Clean punches were few and far between and Spence missed a lot of punches. The WW division has been weak for a while, but it gets hyped by the fanboy boxing writers.
