    Sugar above 140 kinda sucked. Going with Errol.

    Not a bad choice but,
    Sugar from 135-147lb was dope
    He just ran into Vernon Forrest at 147lb that’s all.

    He needed to roid up to narrowly defeat Oscar. He also lost to Cotto while still relatively prime.

    Sugar was good at 147, but Spence is ****ing huge at 147. Mosley was at his best at 135-140.

    still no shame in losing to Cotto.

    Yeah he cheated vs hoya but to be fair Oscar & Floyd were like the only 2 stars that weren’t roiding or at least weren’t caught roiding in the 90s-2000s.

    i mean ask yourself this
    Errol Spence vs Cotto, de la hoya, Or the Viper Forrest… ain’t no gaurantees he comes out victorious either.

    that’s some stiff comp & any one of them would be the best opponents on his resume by far.

    judging by the early voting in the poll the forum feels the same.

    Agreed. I think Spence would do well in those match ups but he could also lose those fights as well that was a tough era of formidable boxers.

    EJ would do a Vernon Forrest on Sugar Shane.

    Kell Basic Brook with one eye took EJ to task, but a prime roided Shane couldnt?

    Shane. KO. Shane was a monster.

    “Brook took EJ to task”, you have to be trolling

    Spence was up on all three scorecards at the time of the stoppage, and in Brook’s backyard nonetheless.
