    Spence could very well be the next big thing. He's big, strong, has good power, works the body, and is exciting. But let's talk about some weaknesses he has.

    I see him as vulnerable to left hooks. He kept his right low in the Bundu fight.

    His chin hasn't been tested either. Algieri and Bundu aren't exactly hard punchers.

    Seems hittable and his chin is unproven as of yet. He looks impressive but need to see him in with better opposition to tell

    I think he should work a little more on his accuracy.

    As the biggest Errol Spence supporter in here .

    I admit Spence chin has not yet been tested at all . So we don't know how good his chin really is .

    As of weaknesses , I don't see any so far .

    Doesn't matter how elusive or how excellent your defense is , You bound to get caught with a punch in a fight . Its envitable . So me seeing another fighter land on Spence . I don't look at that as a weakness . None of us should .

    I suspect traveling may be one of them.

    Also if Brook stops at Welterweight, and he decides to travel to the UK and fight him as mandatory challenger, perhaps 'biting off more than he can chew' may be another.

    Still not sold on him being able to deal with someone with good movement despite that he beat Chris Algeri. I need to see him in with a real mover before giving a fair assessment.

    kell would stop spence in 6 rounds. Too quick and too slick and spence would play right into his hands with his style, kells also very good against southpaws

    Chris algieri never moved against him. Algieri fought spence like he fought khan, he tried walking him down.

    I agree which is why I didn't credit him with facing a good mover.

    Brook had better avoid Spence.

    Spence's puffy steroid nipples could be a liability against a puncher. What if they popped during an exchange?
