Comments Thread For: Spence To Garcia: Could Be Short Night If I Catch You On Chin!

[Noelanthony]

I'm wondering how much more energy Mikey will have on fight night due to the fact that he doesn't have to drain himself to make 147 the way Errol does. Errol is a big dude. I know it must be killing him to make the WW limit.

Thoughts anyone?

Mikey will be sleeping like a new born baby girl by the 7th round. If by miracle Garcia makes it to the 12th Spence should be stripped of the IBF belt

Have you seen him tire, he gains momentum every round and just comes harder, Spence is a relentless pit bull type that hunts you down.

Hoping for a surprisingly competitive fight.

I think it will be, Mikey is not as small as the fine print sounds and he is an elite fighter, I think it will be a real quality fight from 2 unbeaten champions and lots of guys have come up a division and beat the bigger guy so this notion Spence will just run him over is only setting Spence up to be in a lose lose situation on any win that is not super dominate which is not right.

I love this fight and cant wait.

Yeah well I am with Mikey all the way! I am for the so-called under dog😂!

I watched the tape of Spence fighting Brook , NOW I AM REALLY THINKING GOOD ABOUT MIKEY😂😂😂😂😂

Yeah, but those are very different styles and that fight involved two of the biggest welters in the division. Not sure you can glean much from that.

I agree with everything you said but don't think the size is being understated. When I see them face to face, the size difference is pretty significant. Mikey is the better skilled fighter but I don't know if he's that much more skilled to overcome the size. We'll find out soon enough.

Re

Once Garcia figured out that Robert Easter could box, from distance, but he couldnt FIGHT on the inside, he pretty much dominated.

He's gonna test Spence too, to see if he's also a punk in the inside. That, however should be Mikey's undoing . Spence is not gonna crumble when Garcia attempts the bull rushes to get inside and brawl.

I can't help but think Mikey is going to come into the fight looking ripped and with a lot more muscle. If he does, Victor Conte will have proven his expertise with undetectable PEDS will be evident. If so, it evens the odds. If Mikey hurts Spence while not being able to hurt Broner, Lipnets or Easter? Crazy to think about, but possible.

I'll stick to my prediction of Spence via stoppage (via towel throw by Mikey's corner) inside of 10.
