Comments Thread For: Malignaggi, Shields Baffled on Garcia Seeing Flaws in Spence

[champion4ever]

I'd be with you but Mikey isn't a "slick" boxer who racks up points based on defense and super accurate shots. Further, Spence isn't a slugger/one punch KO guy that will be easily outboxed as he searches for the KO. I see Spence working his jab more than he has in any fight.

I agree with you. Read my keys to victory for each opponent for this fight.


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.

How about that Spence has no head movement? Or that he moves heel, to toe, moving a split second behind, ala Cuellar vs Mares? Spence has load his punch. Spence has good fundamentals, and extra strength. Spence by KO, or Garcia by UD. My opinion.

Mikey dreamed of beating Spence and being awarded FOTD!

Make it a reality or go bust why not!

That's kinda the way I see it. I'm just not sure if Mikey can execute that strategy and not fade at the end.

No doubt; That's the big question. For one is he is going to be a lot heavier than usual and two he will be carrying a lot more muscle mass, which tire him out much faster than either lean or fat.

No such thing as a flawless/a fighter without weaknesses Spence AND Garcia have weaknesses.

Wrong. Bud Crawford.

Either Spence dominates or Mikey makes it look relatively easy. An intiguing fight.

Jesus, worst breakdown ever.

Wrong. Bud Crawford.

Gamboa exposed Crawford early on. Crawford used his size, as well as switch hitter, to win him that fight later on. Crawford is a good fighter and like any other fight they have some weakness that can be exploited.

Wrong. Bud Crawford.

...What?

[Combat Talk Radio]

Lol he's flawed but that's not a very good example. He didn't really get hurt. Mayweather was way more flawless than Spence will ever be and he was actually hurt by Mosley.

That punch above just looked like it momentarily caught his attention. It was just a well placed punch, I think he actually took it very well.

The word "flawless" means you don't ever get hit by anything and you miss nothing. There is no such thing as a FLAWLESS fighter. The best to ever do it in history have all gotten rocked by someone.
