Comments Thread For: Spence: If I Beat Garcia The Way I Plan, I'll Be The Guy in The Sport

I respect your opinion, but I'm not so sure about that! Lara gave Canelo a lot of problems, and Spence Jr. hits a lot harder than Lara! Canelo also didn't beat Trout by "brutal KO" either! I just hope we get the fight!

Spence is just 147 fighter with zero experience even at 154. A huge difference. Spence shud have some fights at 154 before dreaming about Canelo.

Lara and Trout are 154 guys and Canelo was 154 guy when he fought them. Now is he a full 160 fighter.

The less than reasonable "fight fans" or casuals as they are referred to will rip Spence for fighting Mikey. 1. Mikey called him out. 2. Who would turn down the millions he is getting for this outing? Everyone that is ripping Spence are hypocrites and just like to read their own unrighteous indignation.

Anything other than a stoppage is an black eye to Spence in this case. Mikey making to the last bell, win lose or draw is a win to him.

If Mikey becomes a runner a KO would be difficult.

More than half of Spence's career fights have been at Jr Middle. Spence is to Welter what Hurd is to Jr Middle.

a middleweight masquerading as a welterweight beats up a lightweight and becomes P4P number 1 laughable

Jesus are you an idiot.

[Dean_Razorback]

you are supposed to beat mikey 'cause you are huge and he isn't a welterweight at all

Spence is someone that fights Mikey Garcia next.

I think Spence has already given himself an L just by taking this fight, a huge welterweight like him has no business chasing lightweights to fight when there’s no shortage of legit opponents at his own weight, or at the next division up seeing as how he’s inevitably going to move up there. This fight is a lose-lose in my eyes for him, win in the way I expect him to and he’ll be criticised for participating in a mismatch, if he doesn’t win impressively or even loses people are going to mock him for being a hype job who can’t beat a much smaller guy. Only Garcia can come out of this as “the man”, but I don’t think that’s likely because this is going to be a repeat of Canelo vs. Khan imo.

I have to say I stopped reading after you said Spence is "chasing lightweights". First of all this lightweight (singular) called SPENCE out multiple times to challenge. I would feel disrespected if I was Spence and commence to accept. So stop spending false narratives talking about chasing lightweights smh

I'm aware. If Robert doesn't white flag or Mikey doesn't quit he is going give Mikey a career ruining beating. I expect Mikey to make a "business decision" and let himself be counted out from a bodyshot followed by "He was just too big Jim."

Sorry Errol, I like you and all, but beating a lil guy the way its expected of you does NOTHING for your legacy. On the flip side, if you go a full 12 with said lil guy and it's actually competitive, your stock goes down.
