Anyone else think Mikey/Spence ends up like GGG/Brook ?

    I think so. Mikey could be looking good and win the early rounds and then Spence just takes over. Spence walks him down and knocks him out.

      No Spence has better defense than GGG, so he won't get hit the same way Brook hit GGG with uppercuts and straight right hands. But Mikey is a good boxer so he will most likely tag Spence a couple times and be successful in spots. I don't think Mikey will be knocked out he's got a great chin but Spence will walk through his punches eventually and wear him down. Spence by UD

        It could be like GGG-Brook but Mikey will make it hell for Spence until mid to late rounds when Spence can start jumping on him but Spence should use his body punches more often in the early rounds and tire Mikey out.

          Also a question, Is there a boxer in his prime who moved up to two weight classes and beat the other guy who’s also in his prime and considered onemof the top guys in his division ?
          Only a few examples of that in history and most likely the bigger fighter was pre or past prime. But a lightweight moving up to fight a top welterweight in his prime for p4p supremacy? Sounds like Duran vs Leonard I to me

            I think Mikey's ring IQ gives him a better chance than normal. Not saying he would win but nothing would suprise me with the outcome of this fight.

                  Really think Garcia is going to pull this off
                  I third this, For some reason feel Mikey is going to pull this off and set up a big rematch or a huge fight with pac.

                    Think Duran Leonard one qualifies, even though there was no 140 division back then I dont think. But it was actually the same thing.

                      Sorry, didnt read this before posting, totally agree on Duran Leonard one. Reminds us all of how great Duran really was.
