    Dude is special. Great fundamentals and unbelievable conditioning. Calling it now, July 29th Spence becomes p4p #1.

    Bud Crawford knocks his **** loose again and when Earl goes on walkabout mid match, Bud walks up behind him, an knocks him spark out.

    Absolutely nothing to him... Bud will go hyper defensive like he did against Postol, walk him into shots out of the southpaw position, a stance that's always given Spence issues in the amateurs especially the fast ones, it takes his only advantage away from him. Eventually he'll walk into something, get hurt, and Bud won't allow him to recover.

    Correct. I eagerly await the damage control if Spence pulls it off.

    The reason he doesn't get respect is because he's with the PBC(The most hated organization in boxing).

    Both guys have dog in them but Spence is being underrated here he's a devastating body puncher who takes the fight and will out of his opponents. Those types of guys are nightmares to face he has a good workrate is strong and keeps coming. I can't wait for this fight. I still haven't made up my mind on who I'm picking.

    Spence coming forward jabbing, power punching is fine with fighters who he knows can't threaten him with anything vicious coming back but with Crawford he will have to be very savvy at the same time with this strategy as Terence is a sharp shooter stinger waiting to strike, the respect level will be higher from both guy's for this one.

    He'll get his respect if he beats Crawford. I've always favoured Crawford in this match up, but if Spence beats him with no controversy, I'll admit I was wrong and that I underestimated Spence.

    He gets way too much respect and he always has. Nice guy, excellent fighter but he's been on mission clean out 147 of all its career 140 pounders and blown up 135 Mikey and he's literally only fought 2 career 147 world champions his entire career and he struggled badly against both and he's barely fought any punchers.

    We've never seen him put in a dominant performance against a career 147 world champion, let alone done so against a 154 or 160 one in his second or third weight class.

    He looks great beating up on all those career 140s and blown up 135s like Mikey against whom his natural size, strength, and power advantages are huge assets for him, but he went life and death against Porter and Brook (prior to the eye injury) and that was a damaged goods Brook too who was coming off a bad beating stoppage loss, a terrible eye injury and gruesome surgery to repair it, and back down from 160 after bulking up to fight up there.
