    Rumor doing the rounds that Spence is struggling to make weight and is asking for it to now be at 160

    Make him get to 158 but obviously not a deal breaker.

    F.... him. How serious is he about this fight? Make weight or stay home.

    Sounds like team Tszyu have fallen for it though and accepted 160 pounds.

    A diva like Spence probably threatened to walk if they didn't agree but that is how Tim is he doesn't care he just wants to fight doesn't play games.

    Wondering if this is tactical or Spence isn't as serious about this fight as people may have thought?

    I suspect there will be an odds adjustment as a result of the new limit.

    I don't think that Spence is smart enough to be that tactical I genuinely think he is struggling and Tim is doing him a favor.

    Hope he enjoyed it because he is about to indulge in some New South in the mouth and I don't think he is going to enjoy that lol

    Ofcourse Fenech is saying Spence isnt the fighter he used to be and has a poor mentality.Get the edge out of this.

    Could be Spence gamesmanship though. Im thinking hes just a fat **** needed to try harder. Spence is not trying that hard for Tszyu in Sydney...

    Spence recently said that when he fought Crawford he 'feared for his life' but 'did it for the money.'

    I'm really starting to wonder if this fight is just a money grab from Spence? Could easily be reading things wrong but that is my take at the moment.
