WoW! Spence: “I’ll Beat Gennadiy Golovkin... Yeah Man!”

[-Kev-]

It was edited out but he meant he could beat him if they fought in Fight Night Champion for ps3.

GGG fights one way and one way only.

Spence can change his approach and can also change approach mid fight.

Spence is the better all around boxer. The one thing GGG has for him is that power. If Spence can't handle that or minimize GGG landing shots, he's out of there.

I don't even think GGG's jab would be that big of a factor unless Spence can't take his power.

If he can, he'll beat GGG much like Canelo did.

Well I mean Canelo never beat him, we know that. But yeah.

What examples do you have of Spence changing his approach, mid fight even?

[Boxing-1013]

Mikey an elite boxer at his peak who fought to not get KO'd compared to a GGG at the tail end of career who have been showing signs of being hurt here and there last couple of fights.

Mikey is an elite boxer? Man lol

Anyway, now you are saying Mikey is tougher to KO than GGG. I have seen it all on this site.

For all the people who accuse me of loving GGG - this is why I respond to comments about him on here.

Not out of defending him per se - but because the comments about him are often times so ridiculous that I can't scroll by and not comment.

Changed mid-fight? vs Porter. (tried to control him with jab like Mikey, Porter wouldn't let him, fought on the inside majority of the fight, then looked for slick counters off Porter's hyper aggression)

Technical boxed Mikey.

Slugged down Algieri.

Walked down Brook.

That's changing your approach.

Just don't call it "running" if he pot shot GGG to a UD.

[sicko]

He is a BOXER! Not some guy on a Forum worshipping other fighters because they can do something we can't. He is suppose to feel like he can beat ANYBODY!

It's called CONFIDENCE people, most people hiding out on the Internet Lack It especially in Person!

Move Up And fight him! Old video but you can see how BIG Spence Is, Spence is not a Little Welterweight at all

How specifically did he change mid fight vs Porter?

GGG ended both Canelo fights very strongly, I would say that most would say those are great examples of changing your approach mid-fight. Whatever it was, it worked, no?

Great examples of style changes. Technical boxing when you can't KO a guy. And then saying walking down and slugging down are different things. Brilliant stuff.

Only one guy has been able to make GGG hold the center of the ring - Canelo in fight 2. GGG still outlanded him almost every round, including round 5, the only round where GGG was fighting off the back foot.

Spence had about as much trouble with Porter as GGG did with Derevy, so I don't really see the point in talking up either of those fights.

I guess if GGG couldn't put away a few of the guys on his list, you would say that he 'outboxed' them and 'changed his style' up huh.

Funny how when GGG fought Lemieux, he focused extensively on the jab and broke Lemieux down with that. That was all people could talk about after the Lemieux fight, how it was expected to be a slugfest and GGG beat him with the jab.

---

You don't dominate the way GGG has in his career without having a lot to your game.

I don't see any evidence to say Spence could hold up for 12 rounds. I don't think he would come to run, he would come to box/fight, and that would probably get him stopped. I don't think he can move even like Canelo or Jacobs did against GGG. That doesn't seem to be in his arsenal.

He would always have a puncher's chance though. Both to the body and the head. Anything is possible. GGG is pretty cautious when he needs to be though, so I don't think that is very likely at all.

His fight vs Porter was close the whole way. I don't recall him separating towards the end, or doing anything special really.

LOL you are arguing against yourself because you do not know how to read and comprehend what is being said. At no point did I say Mikey is tougher to KO than GGG, I said Mikey fought to not get KO... there is a key difference in what I said than what you have interrupted and are arguing against and until you can comprehend that there is no point in continuing this conversation with you.

So a word of advice; until you learn to comprehend what you are reading I suggest you just "scroll by and not comment".

In no universe does the Mikey who fought Spence last 12 rounds with GGG. He gets folded up like a lawnchair. Spence couldn't KO a guy that GGG KOs in 3. That says it all as far as what predictions should be for that fight.

[brettWall]

He's really not interested in Crawford. Otherwise he'll say, "I'll beat Terence Crawford... Yeah man!"

Promoters need to provide what he wants. Make this fight happen, ASAP.

Hearn will make this fight happen in a heartbeat.
