Comments Thread For: Errol Spence: I'm Definitely Not Underestimating Shawn Porter

[Divine Hammer]

So by that logic you should have no problem with this fight because it’s 2 weight bullies as Porter was also a middleweight in the Ams and a Super middleweight when he debuted.

spence the biggest weight bully in terms of height reach and weight. much much bigger than porter.

Well said! They always forget that part! Spence is no more of a "weight-bully" at 147 than Hearns, Cotto, or Margarito! We know where he's headed, but right now he's a WW!

Did you just call him a bully?? Change your tampon already.. Sheesh!!

You not familiar with the term weight bully? This is a guide on how to expose yourself as a no knowledge chump right here.

So he's pretty much fighting weight drained every time?

Some handle weight cuts better than others. Also the bigger man no matter what tends to be the one at an advantage in a fight.

I see your point, but he's not breaking any rules or at least none that i know. Unfortunately lots of boxers do it just to gain an edge and be competitive and it's not good for the sport. I first noticed the issue when Gatti added 20 pounds by fight night and brutalized some guy. People freaked out, but nothing changed.

Getting dehydrated to that point to make weight is dangerous for both side, if he faces someone that can really crack hard, dehydration puts his brain at the greater risk of injury, at least that's what some doctor said on TV not long ago.

I jut hope he faces Crawford soon and moves up win or loose, but at 5'9 he would be on the short side if he chases the $$ at 160 and 154bmay not have enough big paydays to entice him to move up. Oh last but not least, not sure he would want to move up until his friends, the Charlo brothers are still operating at 154 & 160.

Sold on Spence since he broke down Brook systematically and fed him chocolate brownies until his face broke. I have no doubt he is going to prepping properly and not taking anything for granted!

Man down! Strap season! War Spence!

This is a good fight. EXPECTING A REAL BRAWL
