    Its incredibly fair, Errol is ****. Mikey looked 4 divisions smaller in there tonight.He should have been able to stop Mikey, Crawford and Thurman dismantle Earl and stop him late.

    I don't want to see Spence VS Pacman, or the shell of Pacman. It'll be another one-sided domination by Spence.
    However Spence VS Crawford IS the fight, which will happen next year once. I'd favour Spence for workrate, Crawford will have to be on his absolute A-game.
    I also think Spence could move up a weight in two years.

    I hope Mikey invests wisely because Errol probably took a few years off his career tonight.

    I do give Mikey credit for lasting the distance. Even being in survival mode, he took a thrashing.

    I think Manny could have success against Spence but I'd rather not see him against such a machine. Give me Josesito Lopez!

    Other than the first two rounds, which ones can you even make a case for him doing anything to merit winning it?

    I saw Garcia going backwards most of the night not landing hardly anything. And then when he went forwards he immediately backed up after getting hit. He showed zero offense tonight. Punches score points not deflecting shots that swell up your shoulder the size of a softball.

    Yes, he needed to put pressure on spencer, and actually was spencer the one putting pressure on mikey. The only way for mikey to win this fight was to pay the victory with blood, and it seems that he was not willing to.

    Even paying the victory with blood his chances were not too much... :(

    This is right 120 - 107 right score. It was the most one sided fight I have seen in over a decade. Spence outclassed him in every department and made Mikey look like a novice

    I preferred the loma fight but it didnt happen. Maybe it still can down the road but it will have to be at over 135 because mikey cant make 135 anymore.

    I love the saltiness. I lost money on Garcia so I'm salty too. Size does matter (despite what the ladies tell me!). But in all seriousness, Garcia belongs at 135 pounds. Hindsight is 20/20 but this isn't like Usyk moving up to HW where he (should) still retain his speed. Garcia was both at a size and speed disadvantage, even if he is the better boxer it is probably too much of an obstacle to climb at the upper levels of the sport.
