    no. i expect the odds to tighten to around 2.5 to 1 by the time they step into the ring. anyone planning to bet on mikey, do it now before the odds level out.

    Mikey is going to take a Jeff Horn style ass beating.

    If he ever returns to the ring after this fight it will have all the makings of a great Disney movie.

    Featherweight Hank Armstrong moved up 2 Divisions and beat up WW Champ Barney Ross
    for Hank's second title.
    Armstrong was great granted.....but the thrashing was so complete that Ross asked
    Hank to let him finish on his own feet.


    1938-05-31 : Henry Armstrong 133½ lbs beat Barney Ross 142 lbs by UD in round 15 of 15
    World Welterweight Title

    Oscar officially weighed less than Pac on fight night! DLH couldn't even rehydrate properly, he was a raisin. It's like DLH came from the desert and his body rejected hydration. That was a bad case of weight draining. Anybody with eyes can see that DLH was a zombie.

    This. Spence is still green and only has one decent win.

    Nah. That’s a hindsight thing. McGregor over Floyd would have been the only fight in recent years that might be on par with Douglas over Tyson.

    No, Spence is not proven like Tyson was in 1990... Tyson had I forget how many defenses at the time. Let me think... I know this era very well. Berbick won title 11-22-86, Bonecrusher March 7 1987,, and I know this because Hearns won the 175 pound title that same day. Pinkon Thomas I think May 30, 1987, Tucker August 1, 1987, Biggs October 16, 1987... Holmes January 21, 1988 I think Tubbs March I forget the day 1988.. Spinks June 30, 1988... Bruno Feb 25, 1989?? Carl Williams-I don't know. June 1989? And then Douglas. Feb 10, 1990.. That is title fights. 9 title fights. Spence to me is starting out. If Mikey wins it is an upset, but not a huge one.

    It's not at the same level of upset. Mikey and Spence both are the World Champions and both are undefeated as professional boxers while Douglas, before knocking out Tyson, was just a no name fighter. Most people didn't even know who Douglas was.

    That's ludicrous. Spence is a decent fighter but no where near what Tyson was. Garcia is much more accomplished than Buster was.

    This is pure trolling.

    Almost all of those fighter's were in the same size, I would rank it better than Pacquiao vs DLH since unlike DLH Spence is in his prime.....
