I get that, and it makes me question his mentality if he thinks he has to blow everyone out...but he won a tough fight, which is what top fighters are supposed to find a way to do. Porter is a dog and he brought it. I didn’t see that type of determination in his last fight.Comment

There is no such thing as a weight bully. It's just a made up term as an excuse for losing to a better fighter. The rules are the same for every boxer. If you make 147 for a welterweight title fight you have followed the rules and bullied nobody.. If Spence loses too much weight he only weakens and hurts himself and not his opponent. If Spence weighs in at 147 or less and comes in strong then what's the damn problem? He hasn't cheated and he has no magic formula for losing and gaining weight that nobody else has. If he is too big for 147 he only hurts weakens himself. Clearly he belongs at 147 because he gets the job done and is strong as hell in the late rounds. Spence haters just call him a weight bully and want him to go to 154 so he will quit beating their favorite welterweights and they hope some bigger guy at 154 will beat him.Comment

Spence is the quintessential weight bully. The guy Strips off 30LBS to fight career lightweights like mikey garcia. A Weight Bully in its purest form. Hes a middleweight fighting welterweights. Its ok though because his diet and drinking habits will catch up to him and he'll be forced to move up to middleweight and he will look very average there without his strength advantage.Comment

Mikey called him out. He didn't seek out Mikey. Mikey is no lightweight and you will NEVER see him fight at 135 again. Mikey was a 140 pounder who won a world title there. Everybody thought Mikey was so wonderful daring to be great. How the hell can Spence possibly be a middleweight and fight 13 pounds lower than his proper weight without being weaker than hell and losing to stronger natural welterweights????? Like I said Spence has no magic formula for losing and gaining weight. He is effective at welterweight because he is a natural welterweight not a middleweight. He is 5 foot 9 inches and slim. Middleweights built like him are 6 feet tall like Jermall. It's impossible to fight at a weight class lighter than your natural weight class without weakening yourself. Weight bully does make a good excuse for losing to Spence though.Comment

Damn, you act like Mikey is the only guy he ever fought. He just fought Porter who is such a big welterweight he can barely make 147. He fought and beat lots of big welterweights. As long as he makes 147 stop crying about him. If he is too big for these tiny welterweights they can drop to 140. If you make weight you are good to go and that's the way it is and always will be. The rule of weighing in the day before the fight is a lousy rule but it's the rule we have and Spence follows that rule the same as all boxers below heavyweight.Comment
