    Let Spence career play out. Way to early for this.

    Don't see why. It's not like he's gonna improve after the crash, And He's already unified and amassed a decent résumé for this era. He's sure as **** not gonna match Robinson's greatness, so there's no point waiting for that.

    Spence can be placed in this match up right now. He'd have about 20lbs on Robinson too. I think this looks like the Mikey fight but more competitive. Garcia has better fundamentals but wasn't as gifted, so he'd probably win a couple rounds. I think Spence basically puts small man on the back-foot and out-works him whilst Robinson is in survival mode.

    Sport evolves alot in 70 years.

    This is like saying.. Prime Ali Vs Dillian Whyte.


    Spence Jr isn't on the same planet as SRR, Have a day off with this nonsense.

    I was being sarcastic, It's a dumb thread of course SRR destroys Spence. Don't even know why it was made.

    He won’t have 20 pounds on him. It’s premature because not only do I believe Spence will be undisputed champion at Welterweight when he beats Bud and Pacquiao I believe he will move up in weight up to super middleweight and do great things. So when you match him up vs SRR in the future it could well be for all the pound for pound marbles.

    Give me a magnifying glass the size of the moon, and I still wouldn't be able to see Spence's routes to victory.

    Too slow too stiff, and even Kell Brook pressured him at times.

    Would not be able to cope with the handspeed.

    I voted Spence because I thought you meant Ray Robinson. Then saw the results realised how I didn't read the title correctly.

    Really?

    Errol would have had weight on him, but they were the same size in terms of height and reach. Ray was actually a little big bigger.

    Ray wouldn’t have been the smaller guy.

    Why would he have been in survival mode?

    A WW version of Ray was one of the greatest fighters of all time. Many people think that he is greatest fighter of all time.

    Win a couple of rounds?

    Are you serious?

    Garcia had better fundamentals?

    It would have looked nothing like the Garcia fight.
