    Bets In: Spence gets outboxed more than half the fight.

    NOTE: I am NOT suggesting Mikey wins. I'm simply saying, I don't see a blowout. One reason: look how long it took for Spence to eventually catch Brook; before which, Brook was outboxing him for the first half of the fight.

    Algieri lasted 5 and he's not a top tier fighter, but he's got heart and he comes to fight.

    Not for nothing, but I think Garcia will have enough to put up a good showing...but I think he gets clipped by Round 7 or 8.

      It's not subjective. If you're just eating punches and unable to get yours off (Spence/Brook), you're getting outboxed.

        If Mikey doesnt win more than 3 rounds on the scorecards in the first 6 you lose, thats the only way you have a fair out boxed actual, run by the scorecards not opinion.

          I said half the fight. I didn't say the FIRST half of the fight.

          If he gets clipped by the 8th that means four rounds - ANY four rounds. That's a LOT of scenarios covered

          - 1 through 4
          - 1, 3, 5, 7
          - 1, 2, 5, 7
          - 2, 3, 4, 5
          - 4, 5, 6, 7
          - 3, 4, 5, 6
          - 2, 4, 5, 6
          - 2, 5, 6, 7
          - 3, 5, 6, 7
          - 1, 4, 5, 6
          - 1, 4, 6, 7
          - 1, 2, 4, 5
          - 1, 2, 4, 7
          - 1, 2 ,4, 6

          And I know I missed some. I'm good bro.

          So basically, I'm more focused on (A) it doesn't go the distance, (B) Mikey doesn't win and (C) Mikey outboxes Spence for half the fight based on however long it goes.

          Now, if Spence starches him in 2 rounds after Mikey won one, I'm still good bro (HALF the fight).

          The only way I'm off is if it ends on an odd number of rounds, goes the distance or Mikey gets completely outclassed.

            I was going to say the same thing and use the same exact keyword: subjective. It's a bet asking to not be "honored".

              Define "out boxed". People were saying Khan was "out boxing" Nelo even though Canelo was going for the KO right out the gate.

                What’s your point ? Algeiri lasted the whole 12 rounds vs Pac.

                  He was outboxing the Carne Champion before he damn near died.

                  As I said, if you can't land but you're getting landed on at will, you're getting outboxed. See Fury/Wilder rounds 1-8.

                  I already made the point : Algieri has heart, tough to get out of there. So five rounds with Spence is a good measure for what is likely to happen with Mikey.

                    i agree that Kell Brooks was outboxing Spence until Spence started to get a rhythm but Mikey is no Brooks. Brook was a big welter that was struggling to make weigh and cant even fight at 147 right now.....mikey does not have that size advantage....Big Difference, Spence by steam roll. i think the fight last as long as spence wants it to
