Comments Thread For: Spence: I'll Punish Garcia, Make Him Wish He Took Brother's Advice

[taste]

I feel that Errol Spence will win, but I admire Mikey’s courage.

I like Mikey a great deal, but he didn’t look that overwhelming to me against either Robert Easter or Sergey Lipinets. I think he’s a very technical and smart boxer and I enjoy watching him fight a great deal, but I just think he doesn’t have enough speed and strength to beat Spence IF Spence is firing on all cylinders. If his bodybuilding has given him enough strength to keep pushing Errol backwards, onto his back foot whenever he attempts to get in close, maybe he can pick away at him and even things out somewhat. However, I feel this may end up looking like when Guillermo Rigondeaux moved up two weight classes to fight Vasya Lomachenko. Speaking of Lomachenko, I really think he would have been a better fight for Mikey. I would have that fight an even 50-50.
I give Mikey less of a percent likelihood to win against Errol, probably about 35%, no more.
Thoughts?

Good post. Look I got Spence here but he's in danger of losing this fight if certain things don't happen early. He said it himself that the size factor won't matter.

We all know the longer the fight goes the more the skill difference will become clearer. I think if Mikey is winning rounds 4, 5, & 6 then Errol may have started too late.

Spence is more of an idiot than i thought. Size absolutely does make a difference. That's why he is a weight bully stalking the smaller welterweights yet here he is justifying beating on a featherweight. Fight someone your own size like GGG or even better if weight don't matter fight Anthony Joshua. What an absolute dumb buffoon

Mikeys crazy like a fox

This fight will be a Golovkin - Brook type. No matter how skillful Garcia is, when he gets hit it will be over. Though I will not respect him less after that.

Spence is a overhyped bum! He hasn't fought a top opponent of his size yet! I hope Garcia sends him to Neverland

Here are the keys to victory:

For Mikey he has to get off first, keep the action in the center of the ring, beat Spence to the punch, use his legs and stay off the ropes.

For Spence he has to cut off the ring by walking Mikey down behind a strong jab, forcing him into some exchanges and going to the body, in order to slow Garcia down and weaken him.

Hmmmm he fought Kell Brook in Brook’s hometown to win the 147lb IBF title. Brook was his size and was regarded as the best welterweight at the time.

Spence stopped him so that win by itself ****s on all of Mikey’s accomplishments. Garcia hasn’t fought the best to be a 4 division champ so look into that

Beaten Brook coming off of a destructive loss again GGG makes Spence better than Mikey? wow

Brook was outboxing Spence half the fight. His fractured orbital bone,fatigue and that headbutt hurt him more than Spence.

Garcia is more skillfull and more powerful than Brook...
