    In this day and age of social media (not to mention EVERYONE having an HD camera in their pocket), it truly amazes me that NOTHING has leaked from the Spence camp, or even a friend or family member in regards to his condition or his future in the sport of boxing.

      This is weird. Was he horrifically scarred or something (I hope not)? Very strange he's gone MIA for months now.

        I had a friend who flipped a car and walked away without a scratch. He was still never quite the same, though. I'm not sure if his brain got shook or what. Only time will tell with Spence. It sounded as if he was going to need major dental work.

          I agree, that is what I would like Spence to do. I feel though that Spence's problems are more than physically recovering and if that was the only problem his recovery period would make staying at 147 difficult. Let's remember that Spence's accident was due to over indulgence in alcohol and it was known beforehand that he was letting his drinking get out of hand. Why do people drink? One reason is due to depression and if Spence was already depressed he is probably more so now. I'm suggesting that maybe Spence has a alcohol problem that is bigger than his physical recovery problem.

            After seeing the video of Spence crashing, it's amazing that he survived. Him boxing again after that as if nothing happened would be even more amazing.

              We just saw a similar situation with Kevin Hart and his people hardly let out any information let alone pictures until they were ready. I can understand why Spence's people won't let anything out. If they didn't think he would be able to continue his career as a boxer it would come out right away. Why lie about this situation when everyone will find out the truth sooner or later.

                    Better to just wait and see what happens with Spence Jr, best of luck to him but the show must go on. 147 is stacked so if Spence Jr doesn't makes it back a new star will emerge at 147 like Boots Ennis, Vergil Ortiz, Haney when he moves up...

                    Current top Amateurs like Keyshawn Davis when he turns Pro as well as Delante Johnson and if Andy Cruz Gomez somehow defects from Cuba

                    So yeah the show must and will go on without Spence Jr but it would be nice to hear from him about the Accident and let him say when or if he will return. Lucky for him his last 2 fights he made a lot of money

                      This old fart is one lying sack of shit! As long as Spence can still stand, have all the activities of his limbs, isn't paralyzed, wheel chair bound and can still walk. Then I see no reason why he won't be able to resume his boxing career in the forseeable future.

                      Inside intelligence my ass! Way to go there Bob!
