    Dominating performance from the opening bell. Not sure why some were even making a case for Mikey winning the 2nd round when he he had a moment or two but Spence was clearly out landing him and landing the cleaner shots. I thought the fight would be competitive for six rounds but Spence's jab was amazing and he fought a very smart disciplined fight. Defensively he showed if he wants to fight this style, he can. He switched it up like GGG did against Lemieux, only difference is Mikey is much more durable than Lemieux.

      We all know how exceptional GREAT Mexican fighters are at taking punishment. Mikey Garcia is no exception. Hell, has Mikey ever even been knocked down???

      People talked **** about Ward....saying Ward would never challenge Kovalev...yet he dared to be great and put Kovalev on the back burner.

      Fact of the matter is, MIKEYS CORNER WANTES TO STOP THE FIGHT. He was taking toooooo much punishment. Ever heard of having too much Heart????
      Oh f.uck you p.ussy...I don't need to watch it yet to know that Spence couldn't drop him or stop him.

      Like I said I like Spence a lot, I had him number 2 pfp but if he can't stop or KD a small guy who he is better than in EVERY WAY, then that is not a great look for him. If GGG went 12 with Brook y'all would kill him for that.

      And what the fu/ck are you mentioning Andre Ward for lol? People can disagree about the legitimacy of the 2nd Ward Kov fight but the first one Ward clearly lost anyway so I don't even know what your dum.bass point was there buddy.

He just got completely owned, outclassed and dominated by a lesser scientific, skilled and fundamentally sound fighter. You might as well accept the fact the Errol Spence, Jr. is the best pound 4 pound fighter in the world


        yeah thats it, im mad cause spence won tonight.

          I think the fact he was not ko’d and finished the fight ( it was a moral win for him at least )
          He will be ok
          I imagine he goes back down and mentally stronger , they knew this was a giant step

          The fact he wasn’t ko’d was huge

            Now you know what it's like when GGG has a 'close round' and people always try and give those to his opponent lol. And bro - how in the hell is a smaller Mikey more durable than a natural MW/SMW in Lemieux. Come on. I love Spence but this was a disappointing result if he couldn't get Mikey out of there.

              Great. Michael Spinks should have not fought Holmes.
              Holyfield should have not turned heavyweight.
              Carmen Basilio should have not fought Sugar Ray.
              Sugar Ray should have not fought Jake at 160.
              Gene Tunney should have not fought Jack Dempsey.

                Btw, I think Spence pitched a shutout. One round was a 10-8 round according to one judge.
                I thought it was really close to being 10-8.

                  Um, because he just is? Lemieux doesn't have a great chin, would get stopped by pretty much all the top MWs.

                  He couldn't get Mikey out of there but that was mainly due to Mikey not opening up and just fighting a defensive fight. Mikey is skilled and experienced enough to survive if he wants to survive. I mean props for the shots he took, but it would have been a whole a lot worse if he opened up.

                    Spence is not and will not be Floyd, period!
                    I saw that, too, and also a lot of glancing blows. Spence simply outworked Mikey.

                      Pacquiao v Margarito destroys your argument here. Sorry, not sorry.
