When the fight was initially rumoured it was laughed at with fans and media feeling mikey was just using spences name for promo and that due to the size disparity the fight would never be a realistic proposition.
A few months later the fight that noone thought would take place is on the verge of happening, and not only that, al haymon has kindly put it on ppv.
Bookies odds have decreased considerably on mikey winning, with punters seeing value in the market and believing he has an outside chance.
With the poor recent performance of charlos and wilder, spence has become the flagbearer for american boxing.
With a weight difference that has rarely been seen in a fight between two prime fighters, the pressure is on 'mandown' to deliver a performance. He is in a no win situation as a win over mikey is to be expected although no doubt haymon is paying them both well.
Nothing short of a demolition job on mikey will suffice, especially amid criticism that he has no interest in fighting p4p'r Terrence crawford.
Madison prediction- Spence ko.
