why so he could have a common opponent with Thurman?
No, because Chaves bring something different to the table. Don't get me wrong, Algieri is a good fighter. Way more skilled than Chaves. But Spence is a very good boxer himself, so I don't see him having much trouble with Algieri.

But the one question mark that still remains for Spence is his chin, Does he have the ability to take a good punch. Even alot of Spence's biggest supporters were concerned because he looked to hittable in his last fight. So I feel like that's something we need to find out about Spence. And while Chaves isn't as skilled, he does possess punching power. Something that Algieri does not. So how would Spence respond if he gets hit with power shots from a guy like Chaves.

That's why a Spence/Chaves fight would interest me more.

ditto

and too add to what you posted. It's not like Chaves is just some mindless slugger either. He posses some decent boxing skills and can box and move around the ring a bit as well. He was outboxing Rios before the ref had his hissy fit and was giving #Thurminators all he could handle before the tide turned.

Chaves would have been a good test for Spence and Brook (to an extent)

You really think Chaves got power like that? :patrice:

I know he's racked up KOs, but I actually think Chaves' lack of definite power holds him back from being a much larger threat at WW. Could see him getting stopped by the eighth trying to roughen up Spence, too.:jbhmm:

ignore the actual fight, just take a look at their faces after the fight.:troll:

Any man who can't handle a woman without resorting to beating her is a weak-ass fakkit and borderline retarded.
