Doctor says Spence had Neurological Damage Before Crawford Fight

yo, it was alot more savage when i watched it 2 3 and 4 times. People who say he has no chin needs to go rewatch clean punches that hit his jaw and he didnt sleep. He always kinda had bad balance. but he has a good chin. I cant help to think how brutal it woulda been at 154.

 

He showed alot of heart and kept trying to win. I commend him on that.

 

The brothas i know think the organization BLM is trash period.

 

Yeah, he's the biggest race fan on here.

 

Damn, when will Bud ever get his due. First Khan does the quit job and now Spence isn't what he used to be.
Why can't people just accept he's the best fighter of his generation and the new face of boxing?

 

Absolute crap.

Spence showed up to fight. He had months to prepare for it. And then he was beaten up by a true great of the sport.

Only truly pathetic people make excuses when they lose.

 

I call BS. Don't they need a neurological examine before they are cleared to fight. If that was covered up so the fight could go on, then someone needs to pay. If Spence knew and went forward then he is a fool.

Why was this not brought up prior to the fight. The doc brings up Ugas. Plenty of time to come out.

 

Well, I hope it's all BS. Hate to think Spence has irreparable brain damage. Bad all the way around. Really tarnishes a great win for Crawford, but that is a small thing compared to Spence's issues, if true.

 

I think even if Spence was compromised, he was still operating at a high level. He was still clearly the next top welterweight in the division.

 

First of all, I picked Spence in a close decision. Wow was I wrong.

Second. Crawford was on point for sure and sharp, but it is very concerning that Crawford literally demolished him easier than any other Welter he has fought. Yeah you can say styles make fights but that was a very odd performance from Spence. Could be he was embarassed by the flash KD and that got him off his game as he abandoned the jab but he looked terrible for just about every second after that. Props to Bud for absolute excellence but (JUST IN CASE) I would rather not see Spence in a ring ever again. That was a very tough loss to watch. It was like Pacquiao/ Delahoya. I am not saying Spence was dehydrated (Oscar obviously was and it was really classy of Freddy Roach to joke about it) but it looked like Pros vs Joes in there and I think even if you don't like Spence, you don't want to see that.

 

Stranger things have happened than a guy brutally hitting his face after being thrown from a speeding car (and then following it up by taking hundreds of punches in later fights/sparring sessions) having real neurological damage that only gets worse over time. Something does seem "off" about his speech and processing speed when he talks compared to before the crash.

He was still performing at a really high level after the crash, so full credit to Crawford on that display. He's my P4P number one, all due respect to Inoue.
