With This Car Accident Have We Seen The Best Of Errol Spence Already

[MDPopescu]

... What they arent saying is telling. Mentioning certain issues, but not his overall health. No talk of his boxing career or a quick canceling of the Danny fight in Jan. that was scheduled already it seemed.

I feel like best case we wont be seeing him for a while, like maybe this time next year kinda deal.

... "no hospital photos" -- I guess because his face really looks bad (as taking into account the reports)...

... and the fact that he didn't suffer any fractured bones tells a lot, but not all -- we don't know anything about the status of his ligaments, cartilages, nerves...

Give you a grade of A - on this thread bro. Spence will be back in elite level fighting, look to the elton john song - im still standing for your answers.

If we have then it hasn't been that impressive for a guy who has been hyped since the amateurs.

Still thats saying something without saying something is what Im saying lol.

And I mean come on. He was going 150 or some sh^t. Got thrown from the car. Allegedly landed on his feet at first I even heard someone say. Got a bunch of his teeth knocked out. This is a severe enough crash thats its naive to think there arent going to be lingering if not big issues beyond cuts on his face & needing a dental visit. He DEFINITELY had more issues then they mentioned. Id bet anything on it. Or hes legit Bruce Willis in Unbreakable.

Yea unfortunately I would have to agree.

I thought theyve waited too long in getting Errol the fights he shoulda been having a year or two ago already which has given him less time at the big boy table to make his mark. And if the Showtime Shawn fight is the pinnacle of his career cuz of this accident he will be in those what coulda been kinda conversations in the future.

If he fights again I got lil doubt about this, but is he looking the same, is he still winning.

If hes got medical issues from this accident idk if hes a lock to be the same guy or winning the fights is the thing.

Hell I think if Errol comes back & looks the same & still wins the first fight or two he has I think there could be lingering questions about any damage from this accident for several fights if not several years down the line.

I mean sh^t man if we could throw a number on the suriviablity of his accident I think he would have dog odds to live & certainly dog odds to be the same guy after it. So him being alive is a W right out of the gate. And if he is the same guy its gonna need to be shown & proven & not just assumed to be the case.

I think Spence had potential, but it would never be fully realized regardless of the accident.

His lifestyle choices as soon as he beat Brook were questionable and the car crash is a direct consequence of that.

He has only himself to blame if he never really recovers as a boxer.

I don't really feel sorry for him at all to be honest.

Interesting point, i cant help but think its going to have an impact on his career. At very least a delay. Obviously its early days and lets hope he gets back to 100% . At this stage its just a guess but mine is that we could have seen the best of him.

Hope im wrong, hes an amazing talent

With how he has been moved Ive been thinking that for awhile actually.

I think theyve let these guys on this side of the street marinate the big fights they have too long. I mean Errol is 30 in March as is. Errol gots 3ish years til hes downtrending more than likely. Thats not a lot of time to fight Manny, Keith, Bud, move to 154, win a belt, fight some guys & move to 160 & win a belt fight some guys & maybe ideally have some big fight with the big MW name of the day at that stage.

Hope im wrong

Likewise.
