    The Difference between Spence and Golovkin (honest assessment)

    Both have a lot of KOs, but the difference is that, Spence can decisively stop the other best champions in his division (Brook, Thurman), while GGG cannot (Jacobs, Canelo).

    In other words, Spence is able to distinguish himself from the rest of his division like a SPECIAL fighter, while GGG went life and death when he stepped up in competition.

    So, P4P wise, Spence > GGG.

    No agenda here, just an honest observation.....

    Just a honest observation. Spence and Thurman haven't fought.

      Except Spence hasn't stopped the best welters yet. Brook was a good win but he was coming off a crushing loss to GGG. Golovkin has proven one thing, he has a solid chin. Soence has yet to be truly tested. If he beats Thurman, Crawford, or someone in their league we can revisit this conversation.

        If you think Thurman has any chance of making it to the final bell against Spence, you are lying to yourself.

          GGG, Has

          Spence Has it to do.

          Spence Massive at the weight

          GGG Small at the weight

          GGG fought the best

          Spence still waiting to do that.

            Fights don't happen in your mind, they happen in the ring.

              I'll bet the house that Spence stops Thurman. You can bet on Thurman.

              Put your money where your mouth is or stfu.

                Never said they did. However, Spence is clearly superior and, if you don't agree, lets do a bet.

                That's right, you won't.

                This is just dumb. They both have to struggle to make weight.

                    You may be right, but is GGG actually bigger than his opponents in the ring?
