    He hadn’t softened him up enough by then. It was all about not taking too many risks.

    However credit to him for going for the stoppage from the 9th, some fighters would have sat on that and just seen out the remainder of the fight on cruise control.

    Imho yes, as fat and slow mikey was, mikey is not a nobody, and the work that spence did was outstanding. Much better than I expected.

    No shame in losing to Spence at 147, Garcia can move back down and so long as this beating hasn't damaged him then he will be a force.

    Spence Jr too big, too powerful and just too much for Garcia but Garcia isn't a 147lber, that simple.

    Funny.... the same dumb ****s that cried about Lomachenko having a huge size advantage over Rigo (Before the fight Rigo was supposed to break Loma’s jaw) and even going as far as saying “That fight don’t mean nothin doe!” are happier than flies on **** and already claiming some great victory here for “Da Troof!”

    :lol::lol::lol: Too funny

    Mikey won the first two, Errol did **** all in the first and lost the second. Mikey may have nicked one in the middle. No this was not a blowout.

    Spence 11-1 .. Controlled the distance perfectly, established the jab and was incredibly accurate with his left .. Very smart of him going to the body with it after the jabs scoring a ton of points all night to the body .. and head.. Mikey didn't have the best game plan , getting clearly out boxed from the outside, he needed to take the fight inside and earlier, He did a couple of times early and had some success but then he would back out and put himself right back at the end of Spence' jab again .. I give Mikey credit going up again, taking big shots, and finishing the fight trying to fire back..

    He basically said he wants Manny's scalp before Manny retires...

    If he can't get the Crawford fight, should be fighting Hurd and Charlo at 154.

    I guess. It would have been better if he fought Loma instead of moving up to fight someone he was never going to beat.

    People should not be giving Spence grief since he didn't knock him out. Mikey was on defense the whole fight. Covering up the whole time.

    Come on that's not fair. Mikey proved to be very tough.

    Mikey's defense is quite good. He blocked damn near all of the hard head shots with his gloves, and he blocked some of the body shots with his arms. He got it worse to the body then to the head. Mikey was hurt by some of those body shots.

    I think that was obvious before the fight. I always said that it is going to be a complete missmatch and Spence will dominate..

    No shame in Mickey. He went up in weight and took on one of the top guy.
