    Spence really tried to stop him, but he wanted to prove a point how he can box with skill and defense at elite level, it was a thorough beat down Mikey will know he was in a fight, all through the lead up Spence was being taunted how Mikey is the better technician, Spence wanted to prove a point and if the KO came he would take it, he just never had Mikey that far hurt to stop bashing him with skilled boxing and go all out for the KO.

    What Im seeing is people lowering Spence at the expense of Mikey, and the problem is these people dont realize how well rounded both of them are, Spence is very hard to beat when he boxes like that, a big rangy Sth Paw with a laser lance for a jab, a 1000 punches thrown and great body attack, boy oh boy people need to open there eyes and understand this craft , top guys nullify each other and it can mask the skill thats actually on display, Spence is extremely hard guy to beat over 12 rounds with his rock solid toolkit.

    Errol has a pit bull mentality he will come all night, and now he showed his skills , he is real .
    This is exactly why this outcome is the most disastrous outcome there could have been for Mikey Garcia.

    Nobody thought going into this, that Spence was going to outbox him. Walk him down and beat him down, yes. Do it methodically, yes.

    Outpoint him on the back foot too show the world who the "basic" one is. Nope.

    Spence really made Mikey look ordinary, and he did it in a way where we cant really say. Well we knew he was going to be too big and strong for Mikey. This is what we expected.

    Its not what we expected. We expected Mikey to atleast give an accounting for himself, but was was completely dismantled from the opening bell to the closing bell.

    The aura of Mikey the technician evaporated just like that. Spence technically outclassed him by several levels, and he didn't have to rely on his size to do it.

      People forget that Mikeys best win is Adrien Broner.

      Not being able to stop a lightweight or even drop him is weak. Spence didnt like that VADA testing.

      This fight was a mismatch and a cashgrab, it ended being a boring mismatch, most people are sick that they even bought it.

      Spence could make alot of noise if he faced Crawford, but if he calls out smaller dudes and 40 year olds that makes him just another scared businessman.
