    Is Spence's biggest weapon Thurman's biggest weakness?

    I think it's been well documented that Keith is a little "soft" downstairs. He was hurt to the body against Collazo and I'm sure he was bothered by another body shot by either Porter or Garcia aswell.

    So with that in mind, we all know Spence's strength is in his body work. So how is one time gonna get out of the way of this?

    One could also argue that both Collazo and Gurrero, both lefties, had their moments against Keith, so the southpaw stance could also be another puzzle that Keith's problems here.

    Great fight that I think will happen in a yr. or two. For Thurman to win he has to box all 12 rounds & keep clear of Errol's punches. Errol has to just close the distance to beat Thurman.

        I don't think anyone at 147 beats Spence, but if anyone is going to seriously test him, it's One Time. I see Thurman hurting Spence in some exchanges and vice-versa, ultimately I think Spence's superior gas tank and inside-fighting will wear Keith down late on.

        For the first time, Keith's gonna be an underdog, the winner without doubt becomes top 5 P4P, maybe top 3.
