Mikey's corner almost threw in the towel. Spence threw 110 punches in the last round. That's good pfv stuff. Mayweather was the biggest pfv star of them all and I would rather watch Spence fight than watch Mayweather fight. Did Mayweather KO all the welterweights he fought or even one third of them?
    You’re saying casuals follow that?

        Spence Jr made it a PRIORITY to showcase that he is more talented and skilled OVERALL than people THINK
        At least stop him late then?

        At the very least drop him??

        Anyway, good performance, if he faces Crawford and beats him, i will become a huge fan too. For now I am just a little fan.

          It was a mismatch. Spence wanted to entertain more. I felt sorry for Mikey.

            Again credit should be given to Mikey for that more than anything

              Based on what I saw tonight, which was really great from Spence, Crawford would beat him. Bud's a lot more special. I wanna see it though asap.

                Spence was boxing more for sure but make no mistake, he was trying with all his might to get the KO victory, even his coach was telling him. Credit given to Mikey, though he might pay for it in the long run.

                  In this case I don't think it would have mattered. But just like with Wilder/Stiverne, we did need to find out if Spence could straight box.

                  Kinda smart to showcase that against another good boxer that was zero threat. He was still making silly mistakes though.

                    Tbf he won every round against a guy who fought to survive. His stock doesnt go up but it shouldnt go down, he had zero problems with mikey

                      manny haters: pac couldnt even ko algieri, pac couldnt even ko horn!!!

                      135lbs mikey went all 12 rounds with spence, didnt get drop once.

                      manny haters: it's not always about getting a ko, spence dominated mikey for the whole fight!
