      Did they look as fresh as the opening bell and not even breathing hard?

        Suspect of what? artificial athletic performance enhancing chemicals? Practically every athlete in the 21st century is consuming some kind of this or another.

        The 21st century is the era of artificial human beings, never mind athletes.

          He averaged 64 against Brook, who was throwing back. Lamont wasn't throwing back and the fight was only 6 rds. You act like he averaged 75 punches a round for a 12 rd fight. You're actually surprised that a fighter would look fresher after fighting 6 rds than he did after fighting 11 rds?

          And he still looked fresher than Brook at the end of 10 rds. He was chasing Brook around the ring the last 2 rds. This was in a fight that was a lot more physical than the Peterson fight.

            No i'm surprised he looked like he hadn't even done anything. He wasn't even breathing hard. Don't act like that's normal after throwing 75 punches a round and it wasn't like he wasn't using his legs either. Of course there's no proof he's on something, but he's suspect.

              Pryor might not be the best example for the point you're trying to make...with the whole water bottle incident and all.

                spence had little to no pressure put on him physically or mentally...he did what he wanted, when he wanted. Not to say he shouldn't have been tired at all, but it makes a big difference when the fight isn't heated.

                  Edit: He averaged 57 punches a round not 64. I was looking at his historical average.

                  Because Lamont wasn't doing anything. He wasn't throwing or holding. This was a sparring session for Spence and 6 rds of sparring is nothing for a professional boxer. He threw only 11 less punches a rd against Brook in an 11rd fight. Punch output is always going to go down as the fight goes longer. Brook was clinching and throwing back. And for the last 2 rds of the fight he was fresher and chasing Brook around the ring. He wasn't severely fatigued against Brook either at the end of the fight. Of course he was more fatigued in the Brook fight than this fight because it went on longer and Brook was clinching and throwing back. The fight was only 6 rds against a guy who wasn't clinching or throwing back.

                  Watch the last 2 rds of the Brook fight.

                    Jesus Christ lol. Did you see what kind of shape he was in? Not like Lamont pushed him very hard either.
