    Which means Spence has only fought 1 round in the past year. I remember after the Ocampo fight, Spence was non-committal on whether he would have a 3rd fight in 2018. I thought this was strange since his fight in January against Lamont was easy, and his fight in June only went 1 round.

    I think this is a sign that it's getting uncomfortable for him to come down to 147. The Spence-Garcia fight could be one guy blown up too much, against a guy is melting too much weight off.
    Idk where you're getting this from. Spence was pushing hard for a third fight last year.

        Mikey is not as small as people make out he been in with WW for years and touched up Maidana many times sparing, if Maidana was fighting Spence nobody would say he was too small.

        Mikey is a very precise boxer, I see Spence just grinding him down with his non stop pressure, but I think the fight will be competitive and not as one sided as people think, its the most intriguing fight for years.

          I think Garcia will have his moments early on but as the fight progresses you'll see Spence taking over.

          I hate this fight. Not sure why it was made.

          Loma-Garcia was the most logical fight.
          I have Mikey winning.

            I actually have Mikey winning. Spence is such a good fighter though. But I have Mikey ultimately winning.

            You want to know what actually has about a 15-20% factor in this choice? Him hanging out with Davis and Broner.

              Great post
              I also think this will be a very competitive fight
              I for some reason am leaning towards Mikey Garcia winning this fight
              Your right that Spence will try to wear him down but if Garcia can be precise with his shots ( which he usually is ) then maybe Spence begins to back pedal

              And new ......

                Not inactivity, but still wondering how he'd do against a skilled fighter like Mikey.

                  No, the shot that was low did not end the fight. The hell are you talking about?

                    People keep saying Mikey is going up two divisions but two of his last three fights have been at 140. Dude won a title there just let year.

                    Mikey will obviously have to be smart and turn Spence as much as he can. But I suspect the guy who beats Spence will be the guy that can back him up and out physical him.

                    This is a good fight though, definitely will be competitive early on until Spence takes over IMO. His jab is getting underrated here and he will use that to keep Mikey at bay and will prevent some of his movement.

                      Wow big statement: Spence tko 8
                      So you think pops and bro will stop the fight or cuts ?
                      I do agree though that the man to beat Spence will have to stop him in his tracks
                      I really hope Garcia can continuously touch him precisely and win this
