, but when it was Spence 'fighting Porter's fight' after Spence repeatedly said he wouldn't take a single step backwards and was gonna go for a knockout in the phone booth nobody gave him credit for it, he didn't get the knockout no so he gets a deduction for that, but he kept his word on the first part.

he didn't fulfill his own promise and went life and death with a fighter people actually thought he'd "punish". All that and ppl didn't really roast him and just said it was a quality fight :manny:. Spence barely got criticized for not seriously hurting Mikey
I think the point about Bud was how he going get criticized regardless what he does. MM bout he stayed in the pocket, lost a round but whupped MM at his own game eventually walking him down but ppl only focus on him getting clipped :francis:

He had Mikey hurt in the 9th I believe. It could have been stopped then. For the Porter fight can't really make excuses, but I think he took him lightly. Let's see what a focused Spence looks like vs Garcia.

Turned that bullshyt off after they spent the first couple of minutes talking about Floyd, ESPN boxing can't discuss boxing and the promotion of their fighters without mentioning Floyd.

Life and death? 8-4...and the knockdown put it way over. Porter stayed busy but he Spence kept coming forward 12 rounds.

8-4 fights can't be life and death? :gucci:
that's not how scoring works in boxing
(it was a split decision too btw, imagine if Bud got a split decision against somebody like Porter nikkas would be holding him to entirely different standards. just admit it)
