    lol, at the sycophantic comments below this Tweet. He probably didn't write it and for sure won't be reading the replies. :lol:

    This.

    As one of the few remaining resident old farts, I'm often amazed at the bullsh*t I read on here these days.

    (Now get off my f*cking lawn :cursing:)

    Sure! Another fighter you'll claim Pac beat or would have destroyed the guy. You *******s are the worst fans in the sport today. Spence had a near fatal car wreck and people like you think the man is faking it.

    Pretty sure it was already injured, probably from the car crash.

    14oz sparring gloves, full face guard headgear, 11 days out, hard to believe he got it from sparring just now.

    Routine check and doc spotted it, advised him to cancel and so he did.

    He probably fought Danny with that detached retina.

    Pac was brimming w/ confidence spamming out training camp videos.

    Spence's camp barely released anything. In the footage that leaked, Spence was getting lit up by a small southpaw that is nowhere as fast, skilled, or powerful.

    Spence wasn't ready for that heat.

    This is just unbelievable. How can you injury yourself with the fight less than 2 weeks away?

    Whatever. If you're that terrified of a 42 year old Featherweight then maybe you should retire.

    The man is 42 FFS.

    Just to play devil's advocate. Eye injuries don't necessarily have to occur as a result of contact. So, maybe the effort staying focused of sparring might have exacerbated an existing injury. But yeah, even then, I'm inclined to think that is a pre-existing injury that the doctor noticed and that puts the kibosh on the fight.

    Ugas isn't a bad short replacement fight at all, and there's a built in story since it's for the belt Pac never lost in the ring.

    If this is a lingering injury and they just discovered it, it could be bad for Spence's career. It's disheartening to see this fight get cancelled, but I hope this isn't the end of Spence's career.

    Glad Ugas stepped up though, this fight will be more competitive... I'd say Spence was a 65:35 fight (in Spence's favor) whereas this one is closer to 55:45 in Pac's favor

    Absolutely gutted. We'll make the most out of it, and Ugas is still a world class fighter. But MANNNNN
