There is a reason why we call Erroll Spence Jr the Truth. Mikey has been giving interviews saying he is better than Spence at everything and the only thing Spence has over him is size. Mikey is trying to convince himself and talking a lot. He is going to find out that Spence is better than him in every department. Mikey would have a better chance against Lomachenko. I am not sure Mikey is going to be the same after this fight, In Spence Jr I see the skills of fellow Texan Donald Curry at his best, the body punching of Mike McCallum and the mindset mentality of Marvelous Marvin Hagler.
Spence by TKO, Robert stops the fight due to punishment! Robert not going to let his little brother get too badly hurt!
Spence is predictable. He has to be set in order to fire. His reach advantage is the only thing he has advantage over Gacria but Mikey will try to negate that by making Spence reach and make him miss and pay. Spence has to get set. But doesn't like it when the other fighter leads first and hits him first.I saw in the Kell Brook fight Spence was in disarray when that happens.I think Mikey needs to do that. I believe he can. I noticed Spence is open for a Mikey left hook or even an right hand when he leans in with his predictable right jab and left straight to the body. I got MIKEY TKO 8.
Mikey has very good lateral movement and two of his best punches are his left hook (he also uses a counter version of this) and straight right hand. I think one of the deciding factors in the fight will be revealed early on... and that factor is "how will Mikey's punches affect Spence?" If Mikey can't hurt him, he's gonna have a rough night. But if he can... then anything can happen. Punch resistance and heart are very likely to become critical elements in the story of this fight.
Spence by late KO. I just don't see how Mikey gets over the huge size differential against a prime beast.
