Golovkin is already shot. That jellyleg-causing uppercut from Brook that lifted Golovkin off the floor, it somehow tamed Golovkin. Made him too careful. He was unable to go for the kill against Jacobs and Canelo, fearing to get hit by such an uppercut again.
Brook knocked the prime out of Golovkin.

I love Spence as much as the next guy but his best win is a guy coming down in weight after a horrendous beating/stoppage...and Algieri and Peterson. Canelo has some hall of famers on the resume and just arguably beat a top p4p fighter and is also younger. Again, I love Spence but everyone looks great crushing over matched opponents. Look at GGG, Crawford, Loma, Canelo, Kovalev, etc...they’re crushing everyone they’re supposed to.
Peterson was landing some huge winding hail mary punches that if he was even a decent puncher Spence would be in serious trouble. He can NOT afford to let Danny or Thurman land like that. I favor Spence but it’s alarming that he gets hits with those punches. However...thats what makes him exciting. He seems significantly more vulnerable than the p4p guys but at 147 he’s in a sweet spot physically and in position to fight a lot of talent while retaining a size advantage. Crawford is huge at 140 but I dont know if he’s going to have the same type of success against guys his size...unless he carries his power.
He shouldnt go to 154-160 and fight these other monsters though. It’s a different world and pace up there at the top level. Lara, Andrade, Charlo, BJS, Jacobs, GGG, and Canelo are all exceptionally skilled and probably better pure boxers than Spence and none of them (outside of BJS) is seen as a small puncher. Being honest the top 4 at MW seem so far out of reach for Spence that it’d bother me if his team let it happen. They’re too damn good. I’d probably not even favor Spence if he were the same size as them either (though the more I see him that might change of course).
Stay at 47, become the name and let everyone who builds names
At 40 and 54 meet him at 47. It’s not going to be likely anyone becomes more famous than him from 140-154 unless Crawford or Thurman come out of the gauntlet as winners over the rest.
Mikey garcia will never be big enough to legitimately move to 47 but he’s got other people to worry aboutLast edited by NearHypnos; 01-22-2018, 08:25 PM.

It would be a good fight.
Spence need to step up to middleweight to fight him.
Maybe in a couple of years.
Wouldn't mind see how BJS gets on with Spence.
