    Exactly my opinion on the matter. I completely missed the part where Mikey showed "warrior qualities" in the Spence fight. I saw someone who was trying to survive from the 4th round on and a corner that wasn't urging him to do anything as if they already planned on fighting that way.

    I was really looking forward towards that fight but it was a total rip off considering how Mikey AND Spence fought, I thought Spence was clearly pulling back as if he's signed an agreement not to KO Mikey. Having that **** show on PPV was bad for boxing.

        Bradley is all over the road with his statements. Who is he to say Mikey should retire and is completely done after one bad fight? In his last 3 fights before Spence he beat two champions and Broner. What does the age his brother retired have to do with Mikey? He isn't his brother. If Spence didn't ruin his confidence and Mikey can still fight as well or almost as well as he did before he can still beat lots of good fighters. He can make a million or two every fight so why does he have to retire if he doesn't want to. If he could rematch Broner that would pay well and he would probably beat him again. I think he had already outgrown 135 before he fought Spence but 140 has lots of good fights for him.
