Lamont really offered no resistance tonight. Just came forward with his hands up. pretty much just a punching bag. Don't really think we can take much from this as far as a Keith Thurman match goes. Still think Keith has a solid 4-5 rounds to hurt spence before he gets on his bike like always.

Lol you already know that 10 speed is gonna be ALL the way out

Crawford is too weak and too chiny breh. Dude built like dehydrated mosquito. He stands 0 chance against SPence. 0. Only Thurman has a shot

Crawford has superior footwork, handspeed and better combinations. He can fight orthodox or southpaw and he often switches between them seamlessly mid rounds. That’s gonna be a real test for Spence because they aren’t too many guys out there as skilled as Crawford in boxing period.

Fighting southpaw against Postol is an accomplishment ?


I like Bud, but he hasn't fought a live body yet. THurman, Spence, Danny, Porter would have beaten Postol and probably ko him. Spence has been to real tests. Crawford has not.

Solid assessment.

I think I saw someone say he was the biggest puncher ever at 147, I mean really?

Biggest puncher at ww shyt made me flip too...Between this place and my bro calling late nights to spew about Spence when p*ssy meats surrounding me, I'm a hate the kid...

He's beating people down with every punch he could throw while being a 170 welter, his power maybe c class people feel his size and weight though... Spence needs to face some punchers no world class fighter should walk face first into shots like that, lucky for him Thurman is straight bytch out here, and the real talent of the ww division such as swift is too small

The welter scene is fukked up because a bytch ass champ...I feel the top 5 there isn't too much separating them, while some matches better than others tc may beat a small welter like swift or Thurman with his pitty pat, but Spence will be throwing while Crawford is thinking and tryna be pretty in there, tc has down a lot of switching over the last 2 years, let's see how tc does vs a world class fighter where that amateur shyt don't work

Mikey will K.O. easter

Its my dream to face a tall nikka with no footwork, jab, power yet loves to get close and throw noodled arm shots

That only work against low level fighters how many times fmj and Roy elite switchers, switched stances against the best the last ten years of their careers...He's making a cheap trick into a staple of his game, when he using cheap scale tricks as he 40 pounds heavier than his division

replay is airing on showtime...time to watch this

 

[patscorpio]

a joan guzman mention from paulie...yes he couldnt make weight either...fortuna needs to learn from his countryman

 

[Black_Jesus]

That ain't what happened at all Cotto MADE Floyd fight a dog fight just that Floyd was also better at that. Its disrespectful to the great work Cotto did in that fight to say Floyd wasn't forced to fight that way because we know how welterweight Floyd likes to fight and that def wasn't it.

Floyd kinda carried Cotto in that fight.. Cotto just took advantage

 

[patscorpio]

all this floyd talk

That’s a bad boy His defense isn’t elite yet but gotdamn if everything else isn’t. I was actually most impressed with his footwork and ability to create angles/keep proper distance, but the variety of his relentless attack was quite impressive too. Dude throws every kind of punch that you can imagine. Add to that the fact that he has an elite chin that allows him to walk thru his opponent and is bigger than folk realize, and damn. I would love to see him vs canelo at 54(even 60). I’d actually rather see that over the canelo-3G rematch.

 

[patscorpio]

well i scored this fight: 116-112 for fortuna

keep easter thee fukk away from mikey or linares for that matter...this boy has a tenuous grasp on that title...the commey fight i had him losing by 1; the fight with shafikov i had him losing clear and now this fight..easter is the broner of the lightweights and thats not a good thing...has all physical attributes that could make him a beast in this division but he makes these fights a lot harder than it should be...might be time for a new trainer

What is elite level on Spence, not his power speed, footwork or pretty much anything
