    Spence posted a photo of himself on Instagram taken one year ago after his car crash.

    Wow. Look at the damage to that guy's head. His eyes. All his teeth knocked out.

    Not that anyone could, but would someone who took a beating like that in the ring ever be as good again? Good Lord. Maybe Danny Garcia wins this?

    He's very lucky to pretty much walk away from that

    Yeah his head was totally bust up by that. His brain will never be the same. That damage is worth many many beatings.

    Looks can be deceiving, he clearly got knocked about with that swelling but still mostly superficial damage.

    It's not that bad superficially tbh. I just know with that degree of swelling that he got a hard knock from it directly on his head. He landed on his head and you can see where his face skidded of the ground. That kind of impact will **** you up.

    I'm more concerned about his weight cut to 147. Gotta be getting hard to make for him.

    I'm just glad he's alive to be able to post that picture, he was very lucky.

    I think Danny wins. The weight draining and a car crash like that is a recipe for a beating. Hope I’m wrong

    Garcia has shown his tank goes late fight & pace hurts him.

    Spence should be able to handle him

    With a crash like that you just don’t know, some prime years were definitely shaved off.

    He's weight cut is not going to be a problem because he did it properly over a course of time. Spence only had two weight cut issues twice in his career because he was eating reckless and not working out until he signed a deal for a fight. He's back focus and has his strength and conditioning coach BlueRay back. That was the first issue of him not using Blueray for the Porter and Mikey fight.

    Thankfully they're just superficial injuries. Spence has healed really well. There's very little scarring on his face.

    Psychologically, it's not really gonna affect him. He was probably wrecked (pun intended) and didn't feel a thing, so punches aren't going to remind him. Had he been sober, different story.
