What’s this based off :dwillhuh:
Spence showed the skillset against other higher skilled opponents

Craws skillset looks great, but against much worse opponents.

Spence is naturally bigger, and while Crawford is quicker--and can punch sharp, Spence is sturdy there no homo. On the other side, Crawford had some issues with the Benavidez jab, which had him resetting every time he was caught with it. Crawford likewise has ? whiskers at 147. Spence has a really good jab, then adds sharp and hard punches off of it--all it volume fashion. Apparent to me at least.

It's not really who he has to beat....
But beating porter and some other decent dudes will give him the experience that he needs to get better.

I think at the level hes getting to, u gotta add more to ur game.

Southpaws beat alot of dudes just off being southpaws alone.
Jab, jab, straight left hand... jab, jab, straight left hand...
(Think manny early on)

But once u start fighting guys who really can fight... ur skillset has to evolve
(Think manny later on)
Alot more movement, flurries of punches... and that right hand becomes more of a weapon.

the best fighters are fighting,you want spence to fight crawford and porter the same night, it is ridiculous

Kell Brook called out Crawford, and Bob said he ain't making the fight, I thought the best suppose to fight the best

people come with this nonsense out of the blue, promoters make the fights you have to discuss it, you in the business boxing they know how to make the money you don't


Stfu.. these fighters can make a promoter make a fight. These clown ass promoters (mainly Haymon) made all these deals with networks and dont want their fighter to lose and devalue these exclusive network deals. Unless you dumb as rocks, you would know this.

Mayweather doesnt have a strong chin...
The nikka barely ever gets hit...
But when he does, he body doesn't really respond well ..
Not having a strong chin doesnt necessarily mean u get knocked out...
It means a nikka can hit u clean and u can get hurt easily
bruh ya perspective on boxing is "different".....u saying Mayweather don't have no chin.....? true he rarely gets hit, but when he does get hit flush on the chin, he eats that shxt up....when shane mosely hit em solid, he buclked,ate that shyt, came back and dominated, most dudes would've dropped from that power shot from shane. When maidana caught em clean, he ate them shxts, and shook it off. Also, if you went on any boxing panel and said that Andre Ward wasn't a really skilled fighter, theyd laugh at you and kick you off the show. You don't become pound for pound for yrs because you aren't "that skilled"......go ask any fighter that is in the gym for real, and they will tell you andre ward is very skilled.......u kinda buggin

How is he way more talented than Spence when Spence has the wayyyyy more heralded background and pedigree? Also, Spence is way more dynamic offensive fighter than Broner. You are never going to have to tell Spence, “Let your hands go,” if you’re in his corner. He actually fights off the jab instead of sitting on one punch waiting for a perfect opening to throw some bullshyt hooker-cut 2/3 times a round like AB. Spence creates offensive openings all round long.

Some of y’all boys on this board are slow. Y’all watch a lot of boxing (even the joints that come on public access and Telemundo), but really don’t understand much about the sport — or actual fighting talent. I’m not surprised. The same lot had convinced themselves that Garcia-Spence was a pick ‘em, or that Spence can’t box, or Garcia is a “master boxer” because his family and Fox said so. :mjlol:

Porter is about to get his asswhooped. What is he going to do? Outbox Spence from the outside? Breh, JUST lost to fukking Ugas (the streets know he lost) trying to fight from the outside. Do that mauling shyt? Spence is significantly bigger and as strong or stronger than Porter, but that’s not the most damning thing in regards to that maul shyt. Spence is an offensive fighter first. He’s not one of these guys that’s scared to get hit, or will try to win a round on two-three punches. He’s going to let his hands go, and if Porter is going to fight that way just barreling in — he’s going to take a serious beating because Spence will open up on him, unlike DG, Broner, et all.

I’ll permanent ban bet anyone that Spence wins. :banderas:


Preach.....dudes got the nerve to keep saying "Spence aint talented", "he not that skilled" " he has to fight better fighters to prove himself".....and I always ask, over the past 4 years, who would they have liked to see him fight that they would give him credit for? He been itching to get fights with porter,garcia,and Thurman since 2015 to "prove himself"......Size aint the reason errol has been dominating these dudes, its his skills.....he didn't overpower and bully Mikey Garcia with size......he beat his ass with skills. These dudes in here knocking Spence, and acting like Porter got a chance, but they wont bet on it tho. Porter aint NEVER looked like he was the best in the division, he aint NEVER outclassed or dominated any opponent. Granandos made Porter look like they were both on the same level. Imagine what Bud or Spence woudlve did to Granados.

nikkas don't actually think Porter is gonna win do they? Only way I can see it is if Spence has a glass jaw and gets knocked out. Porter can't bully Spence and he can't outbox him. I could of understood if y'all was riding Crawford against Spence this hard, even Pac or Thurman... But Porter a guy who aint ever dominated anyone who he didn't have a size advantage over; since y'all make it seem like he can get in there and bang and bully Spence big ass even though once again he is gonna be the smaller fighter ? Y'all setting yourselves up for disappointment.

I guess my perspective is different because ppl just run with narratives...
I'm glad u responded and we're having this conversation tho brother....

Do u know what eating a punch means?
That means u get hit and have no real reaction to it.
That's what having a chin means.
U can take a hit and not be in any danger.
Think about all the times Mayweather has been hit clean... shyt, there's been times he hasn't been hit clean and had bad reactions to it.
Think about judah, chop chop fights... he gets hit and gets STUNNED. Just cause u dnt get dropped, doesnt mean u have a chin.
May gets stunned very easily.
The fact that he battles back from being stunned is more impressive to me than alot of other shyt he does. Hes the best...

And andre ward:stopitslime:

People like andre ward, I get it... hes a good guy. Hes won fights ..
Is he as slick and skilled as mayweather..
Is he as explosive, and dynamic as pac..
Has he fought the biggest names in the sport and been the most relevant figure for a long time in the game like oscar...

Nah, but u would think hes on par with them the way hes talked about.
I think it's just because hes nice and articulate, and he kinda fights "the right way"...

Dude has never impressed me...
Saying hes a super skilled fighter is like saying b-hop is a super skilled fighter...
He isnt, but that doesnt mean they arent going to beat who is put in front of them:yeshrug:

The definitely can fight

And boxing is my sport...
You can go to any gym and find 2 guys that are more talented than ward... you know the types nikkaz with 100s of amateur fights... just skills out the ass.
But Ward would beat them...

Stoppp tho... lol.
That coulda went either way...
I actually thought Danny won, close.
I think he won the 1st half of the fight and porter won the 2cd half.
Didnt think porter did enough to negate the 1st half tho

Can you tell me how Spence is gonna win or dominate the fight against porter...
Like what type of boxing is he gonna use to defeat him?
