It was the showman in Oscar that caused him to lose. As he said after the fight when asked about why he went away from the jab, “If I don’t fight, there is no fight”. Perhaps not an exact quote but as I remember it.Comment

Everyone has flaws.
Where i think Mikey is at a real disadvantage is that he is very "correct" and Orthodox, not particularly quick either. I think as a much smaller man moving up, you need to bring something to trouble a much bigger man such as being very fast, awkward, unorthodox, incredible defense or something.
As good as Mikey is, stylistically i don't think he has anything that Spence has never really seen before, which isn't good news for a smaller man fighting a much bigger man. Maybe he's on a higher level in terms of ability than anything Spence has faced, but the size difference will take some of that away.
Anyway, it'd be amazing to see Mikey win, it'd be one of the best wins of modern times.Comment
