    He`s more like Winky than Curry, a plodder with a good jab.

    Cotto and GGG are/were more skilled than Spence is plus he doesn`t have GGG`s power P4P.

    I think he could still possibly beat him now if Mayweather was motivated, his movement would give Spence fits.

    Never understood why people hailed Spence as the next Mayweather or next P4P king, he's simply not on the level.

    Yea I know bud looks much better fighting shot and unranked fighters, but Spence is beating the better opponents and doing more in the division

    Danny Garcia and a better version of brook. Even Mikey turned out to be not that bad of a welter. Even if you think porter is his only good win it’s certainly bigger than anything crawford has done at welter

    Neither fighter was a plodder nor is Spence all quality skilled guys.

    Brook is quicker than Garcia and did better v Spence, he was actually beating Spence in the first few rounds of their match-up.

    Brook was fresh off of getting his face caved in by GGG when he met spence so I'm not sure how much better brook was at that point. Mikey Garcia a good welter based off of what wins at the weight? Danny Garcia....ok..I guess. He's lost every time he's stepped up to the top level. I see more names on Spence's resume but it really doesn't look that much different to me. Throw in the fact that Spence has spent his whole career at welter while crawford started at 135 I'm not even sure if it's a fair comparison anyways. Shawn Porter I'll give you that one but I would favor Crawford over porter at this point and I think most would too

    Mikey was awful v Spence, he did next to nothing, it was like 'no mas' all over again.

    Spence is all wrong for Mayweather.

    Ok, but it may be because he wasn’t the shot version that faced Bud
