    Errol Spence = Most Overrated Boxer NS

    He is extremely overrated.

    Let’s look at his past 5 opponents.

    Mikey Garcia - went up two weight classes and took Spence all 12 rounds and there absolutely no knockdowns. No excuses. For somebody who’s slogan is “man down” ain’t no man went down in this fight. Even with Spence being Goliath and Mikey being David, no knockdowns, no KO’s.

    Carlos Ocampo -
    A little bit of a puffed up undefeated record. Resume consists mostly of low level fights in Mexico. Spence still did a spectacular KO job in the first. But being that Ocampo is still young and inexperienced, can’t really say much. Spence shows great body punching ability by this one tho.

    Lamont Peterson-
    Nice beatdown by Spence against B- level competition.
    Lamont lost to Bradley, lost to DG, TKO’d by Matthysse, DRAW with Vic Ortiz. And robbery win against Khan.
    All before fighting Spence.

    Kell Brook-
    Already damaged goods after GGG.


    Leonard Bundu-
    41 years old and already beaten soundly by Keith.

    If the Crawford-Spence fight ever happens, I got bookoo bucks on TC. I think Crawford will pick him apart, expose and finish him.

      He has been well marketed, at this point it kinda reminds me of GGG 5 years ago.
      His resume is weak, but people in his division are not in a hurry to fight him.

        But most say the only WW who can beat him is Crawford who most have high on their P4P list.

          Thats because the fighters and trainers know what Errol is, regular fans dont see anything but headlines and a name, they dont understand form weights potensial and and all the things where experience is needed to see whats going on, ATG greats have fought average guys and looked to struggle and then perform stellar in the next fight, it runs way deeper than surface value, Errol has been heading to the top since the amateurs he will stop Porter and destroy Manny if Mannys trainer lets him near Errol.

          Errol and Crawford are the best two WWs in the world right now.

                  Sounds about right.
                  I compare the current boxers to the previous generation of boxers. With that standard in mind, the current boxers just ain’t cutting it. Lots more ducking, padded records, and hype trains these days.
                  When you look at what previous boxers had accomplished at the age Crawford and Spence are at, its not even comparison.

                  They used to fight top leve competition immediately, fight after fight. Now it’s more delays, lots more “tune-up” fights, excuses, controversial decisions, etc. This is probably the greatest contributing factor in boxing’s decline in popularity and overall ppv sales...

                    His resume is not great but it's not bad either.

                    It could be better but he

                    * has been ducked by Thurman and Garcia
                    * is unfortunately with PBC who won't put him in the ring vs Crawford for whatever reason

                    He's a very good fighter who can be great and he definitely passes the eye test.
