He is overrated a little bit
Have we been overateing Spence?

He isn't overrated in my opinion. He's a very good offensive fighter with high work rate and bodywork. He is also very tough as well.
He isn't the next Floyd and TBH there aren't any young boxers who have that athleticism Floyd had or even a style like that.
Sadly many boxers are very telegraphed these days. For example Floyd's straight right is super fast and accurate, but the key is he doesn't load up his body which is why it's so successful.
Who can beat Spence? Well Brook had success with the jab but I am not sure anyone else can beat him. Jabs are very underratedComment

Spence is rated right where he needs to be. He had solid wins in his last 3 fights against good opponents. He stopped 2 fighters that had previously never been stopped. One of those fighters fought the great Manny Pacquiao and lasted 12 rounds. The other had a good performance against the top guy in the division. He basically did the exact same thing to Brook that Golovkin did.
You know what! I take it back. According to this site, he is severely underrated. Not when we've seen fighters like David Lemieux get more hype on here!Comment

I saw that too.Spence is a top p4p fighter he has now proven his worth but people are starting to over hype his skills. His main weakness is his lack of defence he is very hittable and shown he lacks the fast reflexes and speed to be next Floyd like many claim, he also has shown he is vulnerable to a great jab and and a good uppercut. He def has some of the best offence in the game and proved he can box. But offence can only take you so far until you meet a guy with the skill set reflexes and toughness to get the job done. You need to be a well rounded all around fighter to be the next 1 p4p king.Comment
