Don't you think he would've done that if he could? Watch Tyson vs tall guys? WTF are you on? Mike was over 200 lbs, a legit heavyweight. Height was irrelevant. Mikey was not and is not a welterweight. There are weight classes for a reason. Spence's gameplan worked perfectly and his jab and movement nullified any offensive Mikey tried to mount. He wouldn't have stayed for twelve rounds and take punishment if he didn't think he could be effective. Of course he couldn't because Spence was taller, longer, bigger and stronger and used his reach appropriately.What's crazy is Garcia had to bob and weave somewhat to get inside Spence's reach and he didn't. If his plan was to fight at distance then I don't know why he would employ that gameplan. I was expecting Mikey to at least show more urgency and give Spence something to think about since he's known for being a smart fighter. He should've watched clips of Iron Mike in his prime vs tall guys.Comment

You are a moron if that's what you think. Robert Easter was a thin, light hitting light weight! Mikey could easily walk through anything he tried plus Easter doesn't know how to properly use his height. Spence does plus he's much bigger than Easter, much stronger and a better boxer. Use your brain next time you try to assess why Mikey lost.Comment

There was already an example with Rigondeaux when he was humiliated by Loma. This wasn't going to be an exception.
Don't get me wrong, Spence is a great fighter, but wasn't expecting a different outcome.
How much was the weight on fight night for both of them?Comment

Finally someone with some common sense. I thought it was fairly easy to assess why Mikey lost to Spence but some of the geniuses on here seem totally oblivious to reality.Mickey Garcia was simply very slow w/ that 2 division jump in weight. Spence has a clear height & reach advantage that Mickey's suppose to neutralize w/ speed but instead he maintain a distance w/c benefited Spence. Spence has used his advantage very well & at the same time not being careless also as he respected Mickey's power. So as the rounds gone by slowly but surely Spence successfully dominated Garcia!
Mickey was not effective as a welterweight because he looked very slow & needs to go back to lightweight or the most light welterweight. The extra weight doesn't served him well, maybe he could win some welters but not against the level of Spence.Comment
