Best looking Mikey Yet !!

Mikey May just whup ol Spence and peel that head real good ,😂might just knock him OUT😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Are you kidding. Mikey looks flabby with no chest development. Maybe his girl will like him cause he has love handles. Why didn't Mikey do any pushups?

Spence looks a little drained. He's grey in the pic with the cap...second weigh in could really screw with his normal rehydration regime. Expect this to be last 147 lb fight for Spence regardless of outcome (I do expect him to win tho)

Interestingly, Mikey doesn't look all that smaller than Duran and if Duran could fight at super middleweight than Mikey might just manage welterweight.

He made 147 with ease and he’s been the IBF champion for a while. He’s used to the next day weigh in. He’s not missing out on a Porter, Pacquiao, or Thurman payday.

Ridiculous size difference. How is this fight even being sanctioned?

The size disparity is nowhere near that big. And Duran beat the equally big if not bigger Barkley indicating that more than size was at play.

Barkley was KOed by many so not a great example imho specially compared to Spence, but I understand what you say.. Iron Mike also destroyed way bigger man than him right? and I just wanted to say that whit Duran in between them I was thinking about Hearns/Duran because of the height difference between Spence & Garcia, and because Spence is black American and Garcia a latino as Duran, and both Duran & Garcia were and are world champ at 135

I was There at Caesars and that destruction of a listless Duran led to The Hearns Hagler after Duran went the distance with Marvelous Marvin...

I know the history of those three fights that's why Hagler/Hearns was so big because of the comparison of the two first fight (end of 1983 for Hagler/Duran & mid 84 for Hearns/Duran)

Hearns and Barkley were 6 inches taller than Duran (and eventually moved up to cruiser and heavyweight), Spence is 3 inches taller than Mikey, literally half the difference. It's more like Duran vs SRL to me, same height difference, 135 pound champ moving straight to 147 and taking on an undefeated p4p king in his first fight at the weight class. The big guy is the overwhelming favourite and your ethnicity thing is also common. SRL even moved up to 160 which many think Spence will do at some point.
