    I'll be rooting for Spence, but this is a genuine concern and one of the reasons I pick Crawford to win. I'm surprised that the odds are actually 50-50 with the bookies.

    Yes, very odd behavior. He looks as though he temporarily checks out.

    This feels hyperbolic

    The only person I can remember full on zoning out in the ring like you're describing was when Pricey got his head absolutely poleaxed by a savage Povetkin overhand right.

    For some reason I can't watch either video, could you please tell me at what point in the Garcia fight Spence zoned out?

    Round 6 against Ugas, that whole round was a disaster, and the end of round 11 against Garcia/.

    I’ve always been rooting for Spence in this fight but there’s too many factors against him. He also looked crazy drained for the Ugas fight

    Agreed.

    I saw the ropes keep Spence up and actually thought Ugas might pull off the upset.

    After years of delaying and making excuses against it, Spence better be at his best. Half a second of loss of concentration against Crawford means he’s getting annihilated.

    I definitely thought in his past 2 fights that those 2 brain fart lapses in letting your guard down is cause for concern.

    if he does that stupid $hit against Bud it will be night night.

    He started walking away for the mouthpiece before the ref said anything. The stop was called because Spence started suddenly strolling.

    Weren't these guys going on for days making posts after post's laughing at Manny marginally losing to Ugas, Unimpressively i might add, Never did i see him get caught that bad & Manny didn't even have time to scout out or prepare for Ugas due to the opponent change,

    We obviously know how much tape there is of Pac & still couldn't come close to stopping Grandpa Legs Manny, funny.
