Only guys like Mayorga and Maidana could beat Spence...

Crawford beats him.

Sh^t Id like to see Bud fight Shawn. People casually say Bud is the best at 147, but Errol with Buds resume is undefeated still too & likely with more dominant W's & KO's. Idk if Id say the same if Bud had Errols resume after this last fight.

Bud over there fighting guys a couple divisions from their best weight, unknown mfers & Jeffrey f#cking Horn. I think Bud's hype is gonna be diminished a lil when he finally fights a legit top 5 guy at 147.

Any decent fighter with power stands a chance to stop Spence. He has no iron chin. It’s alright, but I’ve seen him wobbled by Lartei, Brook and now Porter a few times. Spence is delusional, for awhile he’s been saying he has a real good chin, he thought he proved it vs Brook, but Brook wasn’t hitting him hard for w/e reason, guessing position, or just lazy, was very flat-footed in that fight, but I don’t care to watch past Brook fights to see if that’s how he fights, point is he kept throwing arm punches. A puncher can take him out, especially since he doesn’t know how to get out of trouble when hurt. Unless he gets to Maidana first and can stick on him till he breaks, Maidana stands a chance of beating the breaks off him and stopping him in the 5-8 rd points, Mayorga probably has a better shot.

You can beat Spence how ever the *** you want, it doesn’t take a pressure fighter. You can easily outbox him too, but you’ll need a bit of durability or at least some power. Anyone notice how one-handed he was vs Porter too? Outside of conditioning he’s a fairly average fighter with good accuracy and decent power. If Khan can get back on form with Ariza he can put on a performance similar to the Maidana fight, with a real good chance to stop Spence.

I'd be at least tempted to entertain the possibility of Maidana beating Spence, but Mayorga would get smoked. Spence hits too hard and too clean for someone that open to last, and Spence isn't as vulnerable as Vernon Forrest ended up being. Spence would do to Mayorga what Shane Mosley did.

Paul Williams would beat these guys today very likely.

Williams, Mosley, Cotto, Clottey, Floyd, Margarito...that generation was just better

Paul Williams had everyone shook at 147. People forget but Paul was campaigning at 3 weight classes simultaneously.
