Comments Thread For: Spence: We're Making Weight The Right Way, Like When I Was Broke And Hungry

[Mister Wolf]

With more money he should have access to better nutrition experts, better food, etc. His weight issues have always been about a lack of self control and that doesn't change no matter how much money you have.

Pre covid19, Spence was looking very in shape. Truth be told.

After covid19, he's looking low weight but not in shape.

...That quote went over your head. Of course, having more money makes things easier. He's admitting that money and fame cost him his "hunger." And I put hunger in quotes, so hopefully, you don't take that literally. Getting millions of dollars can affect your work ethic, what are you talking about? It's unfortunate when that does happen to an athlete, but it does happen.

He's going back to the MINDSET of being broke, while using his acquired wealth to do things properly.

How old are you? I have a hard time believing I had to explain that to a grown man.

". Now we’re trying to do it the right way,"

So what was the wrong way?

[Mahdi77]

Yeap...Spence is going to get Crawford if they meet. Crawford got sent to the canvas by a B- C+ level opponent

[landotter]

Maybe it is just time to move up?

I mean, after the mega-fight with Crawford. Please.

But still... 147 sounds like a division he has legit outgrown.

[Ant1979]

You would have thought with what his body's just been through the very last thing it needs is the mild trauma of boiling back down to 147.

If he's stubborn and sticks to WW I think he could be there for the taking in much the same way Brook was when they met.

i know how he feels, i used to be focused and hungry but i let it slip all out of my grasp, now im just hungry

[Bronx2245]

Good luck with that Champ! When you were broke and hungry, you were also young. You're 30 now! Father Time is undefeated! Jeison Rosario, WBA & IBF on the line. Just sayin'!

Spence vs bud at 154

Bud can go up and beat texeria. Spence is too big for 147. He should go up and fig he Rosario. Bud vs Spence for 3 belts. If bud wins, that sets up a nice undisputed fight vs charlo
