[nycsmooth]

This bout is 2 years from happening and when it does Spence will prevail...

He meant only guy who can beat not that he will is Thurman other than that he is the young lion about to take over WW.

What about Pacquiao? Spence being a south paw works very well into Pacs favor

Didn't pac get KO'd by a southpaw before?

I just can't see Thurman surviving against Spence. Spence seems much bigger has more power and works the body Thurman does not like it to the body.

I agree I just thank as the fight goes on Spence will brake Thurman down like he did Brook.

Thurman is going to have to toughen up his core for this one.

Thurman has to improve on his stamina and core. Keith is definitely the faster fighter and Errol to me doesn't have 2 more years @ WW to make the fight happen. 50/50 fight

Spence will be patient and work the body and stop Thurman in the later rounds! Spence cuts the ring off very well. He's a very good pressure fighter but is great at still creating enough distance to get power on his punches. Thurman could be on his bicycle but eventually Spence will get to him

We'll soon see if Spence is truly just a bigger version of Porter who brawls his way in to avoid boxing with the opponent. If clinching is rampant, you can be sure the guy who takes them in that situation is Spence.

Spence can be beat but it will take someone that can move and take a punch. Thurman or Crawford has the best chances.

Thurman needs to come into this fight in the shape of his life and as light as healthily possible. He's going to need his legs for 12 rounds.
